À propos de cet audio

For the U.S. Navy's elite team of SEALs, the mission seemed straightforward enough: to take control of a towering, 10,240-foot mountain peak called Takur Ghar, a key post in their plan to smash Taliban al Qaeda in eastern Afghanistan. But the enemy was waiting, and when the Special Forces chopper was shredded by enemy fire, a red-haired SEAL named Neil Roberts was thrown from the aircraft. Roberts's fellow SEALs were determined to bring him out - no matter what the cost.

This harrowing true account based on stunning eyewitness testimony and painstaking research captures in dramatic detail the 17-hour battle fought by a few dozen warriors against near impossible odds to save one of their own.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Well told and frightening as well as true, this is a book that bridges the breach between the increasingly professional American military and a civilian culture possessing little knowledge or experience of the military." ( Booklist)

Les plus pertinents

I love war book, but from the beginning I had a hard time following the storyline. It’s very confusing and nothing seems to tie into anything. Was disappointed with the book.

No idea what was going on

Darn great story, narrated by a good narrator. However, it’s evident he didn’t research any of the military terms as he Mis pronounces so many and has sentences run together confusing the listener
