Birthed in the war zones of Burma to stand with villagers under attack by the Burma Army and provide medical care, relief, and reporting, the Free Burma Rangers came to Mosul with twenty years of war zone experience in the jungle. Led by their founder, David Eubank, a former Ranger and U.S. Special Forces officer, medics, and cameramen from the teams in Burma, other foreign volunteers, and Dave’s wife and three children, came to fill the gap between the frontlines and the humanitarian community. They came living by the conviction that every person counts and the only force that can defeat hate is love. Four team members were wounded and one killed as they lived out that conviction with total commitment. This is their story.
David Eubank is a former U.S. Army Special Forces and Ranger officer and the founder of the Free Burma Rangers (FBR), a multi-ethnic and faith relief organization. He and his family share the love of Jesus in Burma, Iraq, Kurdistan, Syria, and Sudan giving help, hope, and love while shining a light on the situations of the people they meet there.
