Saving Aziz

How the Mission to Help One Became a Calling to Rescue Thousands from the Taliban

Wall Street Journal Bestseller

It was the right thing to do. And someone had to do it.

Aziz was more than an interpreter for Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux during Chad's eight deployments to Afghanistan. He was a teammate, brother, and friend. More than once, Aziz saved Chad's life. And then he needed Chad to save his.

When President Joe Biden announced in April 2021 that the United States would be making a hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan, Robichaux knew he had to get Aziz and his family out before Taliban forces took over the country. As the rescue team began to go to work, they became aware of thousands more--US citizens, Afghan allies, women, and children--facing persecution.

This gripping account of two war heroes and friends puts human hearts and names alongside the headlines of one of the most harrowing moments in our history, giving you a closer look at:

• The resilience of Afghanistan and its people
• The twenty-year war that took place under four presidents
• A mission accomplished and the work that’s still to be done

Saving Aziz is more than a story of war and rescue: it's about breaking down prejudice and apathy--and why risking it all is worth it when it comes to loving one another.

Praise for Saving Aziz:

"Saving Aziz is the story of two warriors...brought together by war and a brotherhood forged through years of battling...for the cause of freedom and captures the heroic efforts of those who took action to not only rescue Aziz and his family in the US withdrawal but thousands of others."

--Tim Kennedy, New York Times bestselling author, US Army Special Forces, Sniper

Saving Aziz

THIS book should be mandatory reading in America’s public schools. Wake up America. Men like Chad & Aziz are the real heroes of today, NOT the “reality stars” (ie;kardashians, housewives of o.c) or the sports player that just made mvp. The REAL heroes are people like the ones in this book that took action to save people from evil. God bless & keep them forever.

Incredible story!

This is a compelling story of courage and heroism from Chad and his friends and unfortunately of cowardice and failure from the U.S. government. It gives behind the scenes details on the true story of the failures of the U.S. pullout in Afghanistan, as well as highlighting many of the heroes and nonprofits who courageously stepped forward to save lives.

EYE OPENER!!

Fantastic story that's still ongoing. The beginning was a little rough as I heard the word "Redacted" too many times.
However, it wasn't long before I couldn't wait to listen to more of this incredible true story & these amazing people.
I would listen in my car during errands, at home, while working out. I'm sorry it's ended. Since it's a true story PACKED with eye opening info, I will listen again for sure.
I love this man's conviction to his faith and integrity and honor to walk out his beliefs and honor those who saved him - Aziz. "There is no greater Love than this: that a person would lay down his life for the sake of his friend."
truly inspirational. I've already looked up the foundations to see how I can help in some way

New perspective

Right from the start I knew leaving Afghanistan, was a mistake. Especially in the way that we were leaving. This back really helped open my eyes to exactly how terrible the situation was. It left me with a very grateful heart and with a strong desire to help continue to bring the Americans and the allies that help the Americans out of Afghanistan safely. Thank you.

Awesome true hero’s

The story you’ll never heard on mainstream media! This opens up all that the government won’t tell you about their poor decisions under this administration.
