CBN News reports:
The man, identified only as Brett, is a 28-year-old U.S. Army Iraq war veteran. For the safety of his family, he's requested that his last name remain unknown.
Brett returned to Iraq six months ago to join a Christian militia fighting ISIS. He's involved in a battle near Mosul.
"I may not know them before, but they're my people -- the Assyrian Christians of this world -- they're indigenous to this part of the world," Brett said. "People are hell-bent on erasing them in the history."
"People ask me, 'Why you?' I come back, and I say, 'Why not? Why just me? Where's everyone else at?'" Brett told ABC News, according to CBN.
