Posted initially on the Military board, but I am posting it here because there is more viewership
Have any of Y'all seen this movie. I highly recommend this movie. It is based on a 2012 non-fiction book, The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor by Jake Tapper about the Battle of Kamdesh. The movie is very well done and the combat scenes were very intense and realistic. I say this as a combat veteran
The film tells the story of the 53 U.S. soldiers who battled a force of some 400 enemy insurgents in north-eastern Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. It takes place at Combat Outpost Keating located at the bottom of three steep mountains in Nurestan Province, Afghanistan just 14 miles from the Pakistani border.
2 American Soldiers EARNED the Medal of Honor for their actions during the Battle of Kamdesh.. Amazingly, neither of them were posthumous.
