The U.S. military and its allies have rescued a high-profile Afghan national police officer who was being hunted by the Taliban because of his years working with the American military
Allies on the ground tried unsuccessfully at least four times since Sunday to get Khalid, his wife and their four sons, ages 3 to 12, to a rendezvous point where they could be rescued, said Robert McCreary, a former congressional chief of staff and White House official under President George W. Bush, who has worked with special forces in Afghanistan.
