Officials from the U.S. Consulate General in Matamoros, Mexico met Jon Hammar at the prison Friday and escorted him to the U.S. border, where he was reunited with his family in time for the holidays, said Patrick Ventrell, acting deputy spokesperson for the U.S. State Department.
The nightmare unfolded in August, when Hammar and fellow
veteran Ian McDonough departed for what was supposed to be a few months of
surfing and camping in a Winnebago in Costa Rica.
