Extra: The Untold Story of the U.S. Border Patrol

Over the past several weeks, FOX News Contributor, retired Marines Staff Sergeant Joey Jones has featured first responders as part of the FOX News Rundown's “Great Americans” series. Earlier this week, Jones spoke with Vincent Vargas Vargas, after serving in Iraq and Afghanistan as an Army Ranger, returned home and joined the Border Patrol, working along the U.S.-Mexico border, eventually becoming part of BORSTAR, the Border Patrol Search, Trauma, and Rescue unit. As part of that group, he focused on saving lives through search-and-rescue missions, medical interventions, and crisis response, regardless of the circumstances that led individuals at risk to cross the border. Vargas is now retired, and when he is not acting, he is a journalist, podcast host, and advocate for veterans. Joey and Vincent discussed his time in the military, the challenges of being a border patrol agent, and the work he’s doing now. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share the entire conversation between retired Marine Staff Sergeant Joey Jones and Army Veteran and retired Border Patrol agent Vincent Vargas.
