Description
Description
Explore the gripping and poignant account of one of the most harrowing conflicts of the Afghanistan war. According to critics, it is a masterful depiction of heroism, pride, flawed tactics, and devastating sacrifice.
'The harrowing yet true tale of bravery, arrogance, failed strategy, and tragic loss' remarked Jon Krakauer, renowned author of Into the Wild.
On October 3rd, 2009 at 5:58 AM, Combat Outpost Keating - situated perilously in the Afghan terrain only 14 miles from the border with Pakistan - was brutally assaulted. Despite being outnumbered by approximately 400 Taliban fighters, the 53 soldiers stationed at Keating emerged victorious, making it the deadliest battle of that year. However, an investigation conducted four months later revealed that there was no justification for the troops' presence at Keating in the first place.
