Afghan interpreters who fell in love with US soldiers struggle in visa limbo --- Americans express sense of injustice at immigration process keeping them apart from their loved ones in Afghanistan -- When Mary Ann Rollins was deployed to Afghanistan with the Utah National Guard, she was prepared for bullets, bombs, danger and even death – but not love. -- Rollins' tour ended in 2009, but her close friendship with Zia continued over Skype and email – and grew into something more. Two years after leaving Afghanistan in uniform she was back as a civilian to get married. -- "There's something about all of this that is almost magical. It's like it was meant to happen. It's amazing that I could find the person who is perfect for me, on the other side of the world, on a tiny outpost in a remote area of Afghanistan." -- The wedding was low key, the honeymoon just a couple of days in Kabul, but Rollins had time to meet her new in-laws and get to know the chaotic, lively Afghan capital few foreigners ever see. - More, Emma Graham-Harrison - Guardian -- at: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/29/afghan-interpreters-us-partners-visa-limbo
