Summary Note |
This declassified tale of real-life heroism follows the first U.S. Special Forces team sent to Afghanistan in the harrowing days after 9/11. There, they must convince the general of the Northern Alliance to join forces in fighting the Taliban and Al Qaeda. While overcoming mutual distrust, the Americans must also adopt the rudimentary tactics of the Afghan horse soldiers. Despite their uneasy bond, the new allies find themselves outnumbered and outgunned by a ruthless enemy that does not take prisoners. |
