The former SAS soldier who gained plaudits after heroically rescuing dozens of hostages in a terrorist attack at the DusitD2 Hotel in 2019 has been selected to serve in US President-elect Donald Trump's elite security team.
Christian Craighead, 48, is now set to serve a crucial role in Trump's security team ahead of his upcoming inauguration in Washington, D.C, on January 20, 2025.
Trump, who is set to be inaugurated on January 20, 2025, is reportedly keen on having Craighead as part of his security team because he believes the former SAS soldier's 'eagle eyes' could be the difference between life and death.
The US President-elect is particularly interested in heightening his security after an assassination attempt on him in September 2024 at the height of political tensions in the US.
