内容简介：
One of
the most critical battles of the Afghan War is now revealed as
never before. Lions of Kandahar is an inside account from the
unique perspective of an active-duty U.S. Army Special Forces
commander, an unparalled warrior with multiple deployments to the
theater who has only recently returned from combat
there.
Southern Afghanistan was slipping away.
That was clear to then-Captain Rusty Bradley as he began his third
tour of duty there in 2006. The Taliban and their allies were
infiltrating everywhere, poised to reclaim Kandahar Province, their
strategically vital onetime capital. To stop them, the NATO
coalition launched Operation Medusa, the largest offensive in its
history. The battlefield was the Panjwayi Valley, a densely packed
warren of walled compounds that doubled neatly as enemy bunkers,
lush orchards, and towering marijuana stands, all laced with
treacherous irrigation ditches. A mass exodus of civilians heralded
the carnage to come.
Dispatched as a diversionary force in
support of the main coalition attack, Bradley’s Special Forces
A-team and two others, along with their longtime Afghan Army
allies, watched from across the valley as the NATO force was
quickly engulfed in a vicious counterattack. Key to relieving it
and calling in effective air strikes was possession of a modest
patch of high ground called Sperwan Ghar. Bradley’s small
detachment assaulted the hill and, in the midst of a savage and
unforgettable firefight, soon learned they were facing nearly a
thousand seasoned fighters—from whom they seized an impossible
victory.
Now
Bradley recounts the whole remarkable story as it actually
happened. The blistering trek across Afghanistan’s infamous Red
Desert. The eerie traces of the elusive Taliban. The close
relations with the Afghan people and army, a primary mission focus.
Sperwan Ghar itself: unremitting waves of fire from machine guns
and rocket-propelled grenades; a targeted truck turned into an
inferno; the death trap of a cut-off compound. Most important: the
men, Americans and Afghans alike—the “shaky” medic with nerves of
steel and a surgeon’s hands in battle; the tireless sergeant who
seems to be everywhere at once; the soft-spoken intelligence
officer with laser-sharp insight; the diminutive Afghan commander
with a Goliath-sized heart; the cool maverick who risks all to
rescue a grievously wounded comrade—each unique, all indelible in
their everyday exercise of extraordinary
heroism.

xAdvance praise for Lions of Kandahar
“A powerful and gripping account of a battle that helped shape
the war in Afghanistan. But Lions of Kandahar is more than that.
Major Rusty Bradley and Kevin Maurer give readers a stirring inside
look at the day-to-day operations of a Special Forces team—and what
it takes to defeat insurgents hell-bent on regaining control of
Afghanistan. With crisp writing and page-turning action, Lions of
Kandahar is one of the best books written about the
conflict.”—Mitch Weiss, Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative
journalist and co-author of the critically acclaimed Tiger Force: A
True Story of Men and War
“A raw and authentic war story about untamed Green Berets in
action. Bradley and Maurer crush it! Mr. President, grab a
copy—this is a sure-bet Special Forces exit strategy. Unleash more
of these brave lions across Afghanistan and America will win this
war.”—Dalton Fury, New York Times bestselling author of Kill Bin
Laden: A Delta Force Commander’s Account of the Hunt for the
World’s Most Wanted Man
"This is a riveting tale, told from the front lines of the secret
war against the Taliban. Lions of Kandahar is the definitive
account of a modern Special Forces mission--a must-read for anyone
hoping to understand the harsh realities of the Afghan
conflict."—David Zucchino, Pulitzer-Prize-winning journalist and
author of Thunder Run: The Armored Strike to Capture Baghdad
“I have read this book three times and I am still chilled to the
bone with every word. In Lions of Kandahar you will be riveted by
the unabridged action of our real-life military heroes. It took a
group of exceptional individuals to accomplish Operation Medusa. We
as a nation can only pray we have half the guts and fortitude given
selflessly every day on our behalf by the Army Special
Forces.”—Marshall R. Teague, actor; U.S. Navy (ret.)
“The war in Afghanistan is made for Special Forces, but very
little has been written about these soldiers since the initial
attack on Afghanistan in 2001. Bradley and Maurer do a great job of
showing how these elite units fight and why they are so important
to the battle against the Taliban. Lions of Kandahar is a gripping,
moving, and well-told war story.”—Greg Jaffe, Washington Post
reporter and co-author of The Fourth Star: Four Generals and the
Epic Struggle for the Future of the United States Army
