Alone at Dawn
For those that are interested. Newly released book on CCT MOH recipient John Chapman. Covers Chappy’s childhood, training, and last hours during the battle of Takur Ghar, during Operation Anaconda. A lot of great reviews. Worth a look.

Watching his heroic actions is nothing short of amazing. I’ve said it time and time again, these are the men boys should look up to. Professional sports athletes ain’t got shit on Chappy.
Hats off.

That video re: Airman Chapman on Roberts Ridge is the most incredible video I've ever seen.
