During the first three hours of the fight, the U.S. troops remained under intense mortar and small arms fire, before the Taliban fighters breached the compound and set fire to it. Romesha moved under heavy fire to reconnoiter the area and seek reinforcements from a nearby barracks, helping the ISAF force to regroup and fight despite being targeted by a Taliban sniper. Romesha led the firefight to reclaim the depot, organizing a five-man team to counterattack while still under fire. He then neutralized one of the Taliban fighters' machine gun teams. While engaging a second, he took cover behind a generator which was struck by a rocket propelled grenade, and Romesha was wounded in the neck, shoulder and arms by shrapnel. Despite being wounded, Romesha directed air support that killed an estimated 30 Taliban and then took out several more Taliban positions himself. He provided suppressive fire to allow three other wounded American soldiers to reach an aid station and then recovered several American casualties while still under fire. Romesha's efforts allowed the troop to regroup and fight off a force superior in numbers.[8] The fight lasted 12 hours, and eight American soldiers were killed, making the engagement one of the costliest for ISAF forces during the war. Nine soldiers were decorated with Silver Star Medals for the fight. Several days later, the ISAF forces withdrew from the post

Read the book. Can't help but think that if they made a proper movie out of this, the action scenes would be on par with, or better than Lone Survivor

you need a better way to describe things than copy and pasting
put it simply,
>military builds base in the worst possible spot
>troops posted there know it's a deathtrap but have no choice
>talibanese are aroused and attack repeatedly
>Army takes its sweet time in closing base
>Last Keating battle happens and they are almost overrun, saved at the last moment by air support
>fall back, extract, go home, and Obambi hands out Medal of Honors for everybody

This is a guy who's a real war hero, but doesn't have the "operator" look like Chris Kyle did. No looks, no fucking movie.

It's retarded.

This
massive air support, automatic fire for hours on end, explosions that would make Michael Bay ashamed
I'm surprised not many other people read the book, but I doubt Ro would want the excessive attention

Obama had a habit of having these troops setup shop in these hornets nests. One begins to think this motherfucker had no clue what he was doing or more like he wanted this shit to happen.
