XREF and Image Attachment

I’m having some trouble getting an external reference that has an image attached to show up. The xref comes in fine, and when I open the xref drawing the image is there. However, when the drawing i'm working in, there are parts of the xref, but not all of it, and no image at all. I've made sure all layers are on and thawed. Nothing is frozen inside the viewport. Help please!

If you image (drawing A) is xrefed into drawing B

and you xref drawing B into  drawing C the image xrefed drawing A is not included

You need to xref drawing A into drawing C and xref drawing B into drawing C for both to show.

Spoiler
 

or set the attachment type to "attach" Not my favorite practice but is the way it works.
