Abby, assigned to 1st Platoon, Apache Company, 3-15th Infantry Brigade, provide overwatch from the mountain tops of Maiden Shar, Afghanistan, Sept. 1, 2013 during operation Apache Shield.

HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN

We’ll say it loud and clear: No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
