Outlaw Platoon

Heroes, Renegades, Infidels, and the Brotherhood of War in Afghanistan

By: Sean Parnell, John Bruning

Narrated by: Ray Porter

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.

Thinking about purchasing? Get it, you'll thank me

I was deployed with these guys. Great guys, really miss them.

I couldn't believe what a good writer Sean Parnell was. I was impressed. Very insightful and well written. I could feel the emotions as I listened to the story being told.

Very well written book and narration is exceptional.

If you are thinking about buying it, you should go ahead and get it. You will thank me.

First book that made me tear up in a long time

Most war books focus on the combat aspect of war, and while Outlaw patrol focuses on this aspect exceptionally well, I don’t see it as the main focus here. What I see is Sean Parnell’s attempt to explain the state of mind you have to be in when sending men you love into combat, and I believe he couldn’t have said it any better

pure excellence

I wish I could give more then 5 stars... excellent story and performance. two more words

Fantastic book

I listen to a lot of books, this is the best one in years. I highly recommend.
