About this listen

A riveting story of American fighting men, Outlaw Platoon is Lieutenant Sean Parnell’s stunning personal account of the legendary U.S. Army’s 10th Mountain Division’s heroic stand in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Acclaimed for its vivid, poignant, and honest recreation of sixteen brutal months of nearly continuous battle in the deadly Hindu Kesh, Outlaw Platoon is a Band of Brothers or We Were Soldiers Once and Young for the early 21st century—an action-packed, highly emotional true story of enormous sacrifice and bravery.

A magnificent account of heroes, renegades, infidels, and brothers, it stands with Sebastian Junger’s War as one of the most important books to yet emerge from the heat, smoke, and fire of America’s War in Afghanistan.

Having read and listened to numerous book on action in theatres around the world over the years I looked forward to this as I did not know their company at all.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Right from the off the story sucks you in. The narration is brilliant and you feel like your right there with the men. An almost Zulu moment they got into is expertly written.

I am always saddened by war and the effects is has on the men and women who play a part in it.

Get this book you won’t be let down.

Pace and realism abound. Great listen
