Outstanding. This book is simply amazing. While reading it I was so overcome with the sacrifices made by the men stationed at COP Keating and their families that I often had to put the book down for awhile just to try and wrap my head around what I had just read. This book illustrates the extraordinary skill and professionalism of our men and women at arms, and how they are able to accomplish the mission even when politicians and military brass are unsure of what the mission should be. Thank you to those men that served, fought and died at COP Keating. You are my heroes.

Amazing. The book was amazing. The author does a great job of describing the hell theses heroes had to endure while everyone knew the position of the base was just plain dumb. It makes me mad that as a taxpayer the money that was wasted in trying to win over the corrupt elders of the village. If the generals and politicians would have used half that money on more assets for the base, there may be more of those brave men around to tell their story. God bless our servicemen and women and their families!

Waste of money. I NEVER leave comments about movies on iTunes. This needs to be done though. I thought with Eastwood’s kid this would be a good flick. It was not. I spent an entire career in two branches and the Army was one. I’ve never seen such a gross misrepresentation of what outpost life is like. There nowhere near this much bantery smack talk. It’s like they crammed an entire deployments worth of daily life into 2 hrs with no gaps. It’s boring, then scary as f#%!, and then right back to boring again. And what’s with the fireballs with every explosion? There is so much to dissect on this movie. I’m honestly insulted. The only thing this movie did was bring back to life the brave and courageous fallen, for one last moment. To truly tell this story, you should have gotten a bigger budget and brought in more capable actors alongside the guys that were actually there. My $.02

Outstanding and Compelling. The author does a fantastic of collecting facts and telling the story of these true heroes that were put in a bad situation. These warriors endured what most of us couldn't imagine from losing their brothers life's, limbs and a constant level of threat from the enemy.

MAJOR, US ARMY (Retired). As always, our troopers performed their duties in a magnificent manner without regard to their leadership's failures. Jake did an excellent job telling their story!

The Outpost: great book. As an Army veteran I found this book very moving and at some times extremely emotional. The author paints a very accurate picture of life as a soldier and the bonds of brotherhood.

Just watch the movie. It’s just a never ending saga of every battle they endured the entire time. Not sure I’ll be able to finish the last 150 pages.

The Outpost. Excellent book on the war tactics and strategy. To understand why these brave soldiers were put in this horrendous position , read Tom Riecks "The Generals". Tapper gives one of the best narratives of action of any of the many books on this war.

Rick Day. Outstanding description of the war in Afghanistan, the incredible bravery of the American soldiers serving there and why Afghanistan cannot be conquered. Very detailed description of the horror of war. I have read a lot of the current books on Iraq and Afghanistan, and this is as good as any of them.

Great book. All around one of the best books I have read!

Great Book!. Having spent time in Afghanistan and the FOBs mentioned, I agree that this is a very riveting and accurate account of the Service Members that served there. It was a very easy read and hard to put down once I started.

Great movie, very moving.. This was one of the best movies I’ve seen all year this will go on my regular watch rotation

The Outpost. This was an excellent read, and hard to put down. I'm a Vietnam war veteran, and a student of Military tactics. It was very hard for me to understand how could the Army brass put this outpost in harms way! My thanks to Mr. Tapper for bringing this excellent story of this group of American hero's to print.

Modern warfare classic..... Excellent read from beginning to end. I was active duty USMC and a US Army Ranger grad. The stories of these men are like so many who've gone before - and those who will someday walk the path. Brothers one and all. Well done.

Amazing. Incredible account of the brave men and women who served in this Afghanistan. Must read, excellently reported on

Lame. Lame actors and lame scenes
