Publisher Description

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.

READ IT!

I was so emotionally moved by this book and getting a first hand view of what we never hear on the news. I have so much respect and admiration for all our service men and women and a true admiration for people like Sean Parnell

An Excellent Read

Very good read and excellent account of the actual life during war.

Outlaw Platoon

I've read thousands of books and this is most profound literary experience ever. I wept through the last 20 pages. I'm sick over the residents from the Village of the Damned. That 6 year old boy.

This redefines a war story. I'm haunted by simply reading what you and your men went through.
