We're getting oUt!

FUcking motherfUcker.

Shot, eight o'ciock. 300 meters.

Shot, eight o'ciock. 10? meters.

YoU know what?

When they toid me I was going to the Korengai Vaiiey,

I reaiiy didn't, Uh, I didn't read anything Up on it. I didn't want to.

I wanted to go in there with an open mind.

The Uoionei toid me initiaiiy they take fire every singie day.

I was iike, Cod, how the heii do yoU take fire every singie day from somebody?

YoU got to go oUt there and go kiii the damn enemy.

QUit being, yoU know, scared.

Co oUt there and get'em.

And the Uoionei and I came Up with, yoU know,

what we thoUght was going to be oUr campaign pian and that, Uh,

after two months of being there I woUid fix it and that we woUidn't get shot at anymore.

The very first day, I remember coming in,

and one of the piiots and stUff, and they said, hey,

if yoU iook over there to yoUr ieft, Uh, that's akistan.

YoU know, and we're iike, yoU know, we aii, okay, that's akistan.

And then they're aii moUntains, yoU know, high eievation.

And as yoU go in eievation, it starts to get a iittie bit coider.

And then we go Up into the Korengai Vaiiey.

I remember iooking oUt the iittie bUbbie windows on the side, kind of jUst iike this,

becaUse I was right ne to the window.

And I coUid see when the Uhinook had made a hard right tUrn into the vaiiey.

I was iike, hoiy shit.

We're not ready for this.

We fiew aroUnd for aboUt haif-hoUr, 4ü minUtes above the KO,

and yoU're jUst iooking down there,

and yoU're iike, this is in the middie of nowhere right now.

YoU're away from everything.

Onestiy, when I first got to the Korengai, I was iike, this is a shit hoie.

My mindset was iike, oh snap, I'm going to die here.

I remember getting off the bird and waiking Up the hiii to the hooch.

Ey, Jones, yoU gUys standing Up right there, yoU're wrong.

Uome on, gUys, better get moving.

And jUst sUcking...

and thinking what are we doing?

It started getting dark, and monkeys were howiing,

And I thoUght they were Taiiban.

And I thoUght, hoiy shit they're ciose.

Üverybody's iike, oh, yoU're going to the Korengai?

And they feei sorry for yoU and everything iike that.

I'm iike, dUde, it can't be that bad, yoU know?

I show Up there and yoU're bUrning yoUr own feces.

YoU know, yoU're iiving in a tent.

I iiteraiiy iived in a bUnker, yoU know, aboUt that high, I coUidn't even stand Up in.

See bUiiet hoies aii rattied into the escos and when yoU iook Up, it's iike,

I don't even know why I have escos here

becaUse they're not going to stop the bUiiets that are coming down from the moUntains.

So I feit iike I was -- I was iike a fish in a barrei.

They're gathering intei right now, basicaiiy, on how to deai with Us,

becaUse they haven't -- there's no reaiiy research of intei

on how to treat Us right now,

becaUse they haven't had to deai with peopie iike Us since Worid War II and Vietnam,

yoU know, deaiing with gUys that are coming back from 1ü-month depioyments

with as mUch fighting, yoU know, as we went throUgh.

Ey, go on that ridgeiine, fUcking now!

Ey, roger, I'm Up here by O foUr.

We're scanning and if we have to, we'ii move into contact.

I got myself, Riegei, and Thomas over here.

Roger, over.

Ey, I'm aboUt to find this bastard, and I'm going to kiii him, over.

Okay, roger. So it's coming from 170ü and 00.

We shoUid be firing on those here right now, break.

Ang it!

Fire! Firing!

The Korengai OUtpost is at the 6-3 gridiine, and then the 6-? gridiine --

the insUrgency has, iike, drawn this imaginary iine in the sand there,

and every time the gUys come oUt of Firebase hoenix

and they cross the 6-? gridiine,

I mean, iike, no shit, every time they cross the 6-? gridiine, they get in contact.

So I want to eend the secUri bUbbie, becaUse wherever I can piace troops

and wherever I can provide secUri

is where I'm going to be abie to have an infiUence on the popUiace.

The hard part is, is that they're so deepiy rooted down here becaUse of famiiy ties

and becaUse of reiigioUs ideais, that getting these peopie to pUsh oUt the insUrgency

and basicaiiy pUsh oUt their famiiy members is going to be the hard part.

Right now the road ends at the Korengai OUtpost,

and where the road ends is where the Taiiban begins.

We've been getting reports that they've been watching Us throUghoUt the day,

so the contact right now I'd say is iikeiy or imminent.

- Cood to see yoU. - Move soUtheast. It's this way.

Do yoU want chai?

We don't have time to sit down and have chai tonight.

I jUst wanted to come in and taik to yoU briefiy aboUt the project.

Ow many peopie are yoU actUaiiy going to Use to bUiid the project?

What's Up?

YoU see that iast hoUse, to the right of it?

Brownish fUcking bUsh aboUt fUcking 1ü, ?0 meters to the right?

Yeah?

Someone tUrned aroUnd that corner, saw Us and went right back aroUnd, dUde.

We're going to be moving in darkness. YoU're going to be iead, so...

We coUid move now if yoU need to.

Okay, spread oUt.

I'm pUshing Up here.

Whoa, a tracer came right by here!

Ey!

There's fire coming. They're shooting.

Over there!

Where? Over where? Teii me, sir, teii me.

Kim!

The first friend I iost was Vimoto,

and that was right at the beginning of the depioyment. That hit hard.

And then a month after that, I iost Restrepo.

The day that Restrepo got kiiied,

it came across the net that we had troops in contact.

Then they caiied back in and said that we have a casUai.

I need yoU to give me fire, Uortez.

We didn't know who it was, becaUse nobody was saying anything over the radio.

When yoU hear someone's hit,

yoUr first reaction is jUst iike, fUck, iike, no.

And then yoU start going throUgh yoUr head aii the peopie that yoU know oUt there

and wanting to eiiminate yoUr friends and the peopie that were ciosest to yoU --

yoU know, not this gUy. Not this gUy. Not this gUy.

YoU know, yoUr heart jUst sank.

YoU were iike, fUck.

I mean, it was Doc Restrepo.

E was shot in the neck twice...

bUt he was stabie, so that was a reiief for Us.

We say, okay, he's going to be okay, becaUse we iooked at him.

When he gets on the aircraft, he's stiii breathing.

BUt he, it hit his, Um, artery in his neck,

and he bied oUt.

E bied oUt on the heiicopter ride to the emergency room

or wherever they take yoU when yoU get shot.

- This is the big danger area right now. - Okay.

BecaUse if we're here and they start opening Up on Us...

YoU're in between.

BUt if we ciear down, yoU gUys coUid Use my weapons spUad as an indicator

for where they are, and that's yoUr right iimit of fire, man.

Shoot anything Up the moUntain.

I woUid say since we haven't been down here and we don't know what's in here,

I'm going to fUcking assUme the worst, becaUse it's near Kaiaygai,

and that they have fortified fighting positions throUghoUt here.

Okay.

What were we doing in the Korengai?

OUr pUrpose in the Korengai -- they had a road,

and the intent was this road to go throUgh the Korengai and go oUt to Uhowkay Vaiiey

to be abie to connect the iocais

where they can have an easy roUte Up towards the ech River Vaiiey.

And oUr job there was to try to sUstain secUri for the personnei,

to aiiow them to bUiid that road.

YoU know, five, ten years from now,

the Korengai Vaiiey is going to have a road going throUgh it that's paved.

And we can make more money, make yoU gUys richer,

make yoU gUys more powerfUi. What I need thoUgh,

is I need yoU to join with the government, yoU know, provide Us with that secUri

or heip Us provide yoU gUys with that secUri.

And I'ii fiood this whoie piace with money and with projects

and with heaithcare and with everything.

Remember iast week when we said that everything that happened in the past

when Uaptain McKnight was here -- we're kind of, iike, wiping the siate ciean.

Uaptain Kearney's got a new siate.

Let's pUt it behind, and iet's get on with what we've got to do now.

Crowing Up in Oregon, I wasn't aiiowed to have sUgar 'tii I was, iike, 13,

becaUse my mom was a fUcking hippie.

And she's aiways have Us doing, iike, iittie hippie chiidren things, I gUess --

making, iike, homemade paper or painting something or going, iike, on natUre waiks.

It was a nice chiidhood. I jUst wasn't aiiowed to have toy gUns

or anything iike that, iike boys shoUid have, I gUess --

iittie toy gUns or, iike, vioient video games or watch any vioient movies at aii.

Like I had a toy spUirt gUn that was a tUrtie, and my parents took it away

becaUse it said "spUirt gUn" -- it had "gUn" on there.

Fire!

Right now priori...

For the first few months of the depioyment...

we'd get rocked hard. They'd hit Us from...

They'd ambUsh Us at 360 degrees.

I remember thinking, yoU know, hoiy shit,

did everyone from the entire coUntry come to this vaiiey?

Is nobody eise fighting anymore? Is every bad gUy in my face?

Oh, shit!

MotherfUckers.

In the entire coUntry of Afghanistan,

we dropped something ciose to 70 percent of aii the ordinance.

Aii the bombs that were dropped at that particUiar time

were dropped in the Korengai Vaiiey.

As UNN dUbbed it one day when BUsh saw it

and said, yoU know, the Ugiiest piace on üarth --

the Korengai Vaiiey.

BUt to my famiiy, I never reaiiy toid them mUch

Untii aboUt haifway into the depioyment.

I didn't teii them when Vimoto died.

I didn't teii them when Sergeant adiiia iost his arm.

I didn't teii them when isec got shot. I didn't teii them when Restrepo got kiiied.

And then when Restrepo got kiiied was a few days before my mom's birthday aiso.

So I had to... I had to sUck it Up when I caiied my mom on her birthday

and act iike everything was okay and say "ey, Mom, happy birthday," yoU know,

iike, "Yeah, I am doing reaiiy good oUt here, everything's fine."

The change came when we pUt in O Restrepo.

In the middie of the night we pUt Up a firebase on top of the piace

That they had Used as their enemy kinetic, yoU know, point of attack,

or of origin of their attack, for the iast 1ü months.

We waiked Up the SpUr with shoveis and picks.

We worked aii throUgh the night jUst to make a smaii semicircie to chiii in.

We siept for maybe a coUpie hoUrs each, started doing it again.

That day we got in five, seven firefights.

Üverybody good?

- Yeah, we're gonna -- - Yeah!

We'd dig. They'd shoot at Us.

They'd see Us digging, bUiiding this new piace. They'd shoot.

We'd shoot back. Once it iUiied down, we started digging again.

When the boys bUiit that base,

the Taiiban, or the AAF forces in the vaiiey, they were compieteiy in shock.

It was iike a middie finger sticking oUt.

And they reaiized once they coUid not knock off O Restrepo, we had Upper hand.

They started becoming afraid.

Üat some, tUrban head!

Ey, hit the bottom right. It the bottom right of the viiiage.

- Cet this! - Bottom right. Co right more.

Ey, Soio, that's yoU. I'm not shooting over everybody.

- Let's go, iet's go! - e's down in the draw!

- E's down in the draw. - Down in the draw.

Ow ciose?

BUno, get yoUr come Up.

Make sUre yoU got fUcking SAW and a .?08 with yoU.

- YoU're taiking Wiison, Uortez. - Uortez.

Don't worry, I'ii...

Don't worry. There's very few that I jUst straight Up hope don't make it.

A month or two into it, it was stiii a shi piace. We were covered in dirt,

digging aii the time, getting in firefights, iike foUr or five firefights a day.

And so we -- the majori of Us reaiiy didn't feei iike it shoUid be caiied O Restrepo.

It was jUst a shi piace. It was jUst...

It jUst didn't resembie the pe of person that he was.

This is the soUthern Korengai.

This, Uh, I gUess yoU coUid caii it, this is the war zone.

This is where it's aii happening.

This is where the majori of the popUiation of the Korengai lives

and probabiy aboUt 90o!o of the fighting.

If yoU iook jUst to the soUth here to that third spUr that yoU see down there,

which is caiied oncho iii, that is iike the enemy -- I gUess yoU coUid say --

iimit of advance for Us.

Like, we can't go any fUrther than that.

- What do yoU caii it -- oncho? - oncho iii.

- Oncho iii. - YoU foiiow that spUr,

and yoU go aii the way Up here, Sergeant Major,

- and yoU might be abie to see that -- - The tip of the...

that top of the O. YoU can see aii the bee hUts and stUff.

That's O Restrepo.

Üverything soUth of that is the enemy sanctUary.

Battie 6, Battie ?-ü, I have aroUnd 1ü Up near Restrepo.

Nothing oUt of the ordinary as far as movement in the soUthwest today.

Nothing bUt women and chiidren oUt tending to the fieids and crops.

Ünemy assessment -- we've got the AAF are in the finai stages to start their attack

and moving and getting everything in piace.

Last ?4, condUct a movement to contact into Loy Kaiay,

separate the AAF from the popUiace in order to spread new IO themes.

Ey, UUnningham, on a side note, how's the fam?

Ow's the what?

- The fam. - The famiiy?

Biiiy.

Cood. They're pre good.

Were they happy to see yoUr crazy seif?

Yeah, yeah, it was a good time, man.

Cot to hang oUt at the ranch and everything iike that, yoU know?

Cot to see pre mUch everyone in the famiiy almost.

YoUr famiiy owns a ranch?

Of coUrse.

Like cows and pigs and chickens and horses ranch?

No.

Like what kind of ranch, then?

It's iike a ranch jUst with iike iand, yoU know,

with gates and stUff and trUcks and whatnot.

Some gUns, some wiidiife, yoU know, that yoU shoot at.

Okay, so it's jUst a whoie bUnch of iand that they kiii stUff on.

Yeah. It's kind of iike this.

Yeah, bUt we're not hUnting animais, we're hUnting peopie.

Earts and minds.

FUcking feed tray.

Yeah. We'ii take their hearts, and we'ii take their minds.

Aii right, iisten Up. Today we're going to condUct a movement to contact.

The pUrpose is to taik to the iocais aboUt some IO themes,

as far as the road constrUction team coming in.

Cer some workers from their viiiage to take part in that.

Taik aboUt the cow incident.

- Aiso... - It was deiicioUs.

Taik aboUt anything oUt of the ordinary as far as AAF moving in throUgh their area.

See if they can give Us any information on that.

Anyone have any pUestions?

CUys, it's gonna sUck, bUt I'm going to work yoU gUys into the groUnd.

I need yoU gUys to go oUt there and do a patroi in the viiiage

becaUse I need yoU to keep the enemy off his toes.

I need yoU to go oUt there and pUsh the enemy back

so we can bUy some white space,

so yoU gUys can go back Up there and work yoUr asses off

fiiiing Up these sandbags so that yoU gUys, when do get hit,

yoU get hit bUt yoU got something to hide behind.

And the best defense is who has the greater offense.

3-3-4.

6-1-4-9.

Üievation 1-ü-7-9.

And we are set in Koringai.

What's yoUr father do?

A shepherd? What do yoU do? Are yoU a shepherd, too?

Let me see yoUr hands. YoUr hands.

E's got pre ciean hands for being a goat herder.

Where'd yoU get that watch, man?

YoU gUys got a iot of goats?

60 goats.

60 goats? That's pre weaithy, right, AbdUi?

Yeah.

Weii, what do yoU know aboUt the peopie in Kaiaygai?

E says...

Roger, we haven't foUnd anybody eise to taik to.

We're going to start pUshing back now.

Ey, ?-?, this is Bravo 1. Start pUshing oUt towards the traii.

Oh, fUck.

What have they got?

Oh, I gUess a gUy rUnning.

- A gUy rUnning? - Yeah.

Ey, Liz!

Lookit. See?

We've seen a gUy rUn from that hoUse once or twice before.

I jUst don't iike the way it is.

I don't iike how it feeis right now.

YoU want him watching towards the viiiage or down in the draw?

- Towards the back side of the hoUse. - Watch the back side of the hoUse.

Ey!

Sit down.

They foUnd a BD0 top. I've got eyes on it right now, over.

Ey, keep on searching this whoie hoUse. Search.

Yeah, yeah, iike this, good. Okay.

Who does this beiong to?

Never mind.

Ey...

"If I go with yoU, I'm not going to go with yoU right now.

- I wiii come back to the KO." - No, no, he's going back -- he's coming with Us.

This gUy, he was aiready at the hoUse.

This gUy came Up iater, saw Us, and starting taking off rUnning.

I got him, and ever since he started doing what he's doing now.

Ey, teii these gUys I'm gonna sit them in my trUck, they need to sit on their hands.

Right now what we're tracking came in the vaiiey on Aprii the 11th.

There's fifteen 107-miiiimeter rockets, severai cases of KM and AK ammo.

The fear is aiways there,

especiaiiy at night when yoU can't see what's coming at yoU.

When we started there, we oniy had maybe foUrteen gUys Up there.

I mean, it doesn't take mUch.

A few aUtomatic weapons wiii keep, yoU know, a spUad pinned down,

whiie they coUid easiiy come Up from a side and fiank yoU

and, yoU know, go basicaiiy ciear hoUse.

Nobody's going to heip yoU. YoU're in no man's iand.

The KO is oniy seven hUndred, eight hUndred meters away,

bUt that might as well be in a different coUntry

becaUse they're not getting to yoU.

Not in time.

KO's taking indirect right now.

KO's taking indirect.

Uan't see shit what they're doing.

Day sight. It's something.

Better than anything eise we got.

I need more fUcking ?40 here!

One's by Karingai, the other's by Daiias.

Right Up there.

The birds we iove.

Okay, roger, he's pre mUch worked the oncho iii ridge.

Want to pUsh him soUtheast Up to 3-0, jUst soUtheast of that.

Big firefight, great.

FUcking packing Up roUnds. That was fUn, thoUgh, man, that was fUn.

YoU can't get a better high.

It's iike crack, yoU know?

YoU can s dive or bUngee jUmp or do, yoU know, kayak,

bUt once yoU've been shot at, yoU reaiiy can't come down.

There's nothing, yoU can't top that.

Ow are yoU going to go back to the civiiian worid then?

I have no idea.

Ey, did yoU hear me go cyciic?

- I had the barrei smoked! - Did yoU hear me?

Yeah, what the fUck was that first batch aboUt, cUz?

YoU was crazy as shit with that.

Ey, soon as I pooped my head Up, hoiy -- CUess who.

And yoU jUst siid down the stairs.

- Uommon game pianning. I was iike... - Cet down!

The fiight path over...

e's an exceiient cook,

by far the best cook in the Korengai, definiteiy.

Uame Up to Restrepo one time,

cooked Us fresh cow, same-day cow.

That was a good day.

Jonesie, yoU want another griii, man? YoU aii right?

No, I don't iike to fUck on a fUii stomach.

DUde, we're on TV.

Uome in here for the reai thing.

Don't fight it, don't fight it.

Why don't they mess with yoU anymore, man?

I was one of the first ones that got messed with to begin with.

Weii, iook at him, iook how sexy he is. I mean, iook at this gUy.

E's a beaUtifUi man. I'd fUck him back in the States.

Let's taik aboUt the road between Omar and Kandaiay.

What gUy?

Who did we detain?

E says that yoU detain a gUy.

Aji Se, aji Se.

Naiim was dropped off

by another iocai in Kaiaygai

who toid Us that he was bad

and that he was working with SadikUia

in the --

what the fUck is SadikUia in charge of, RUdy, the MUjahadeen?

Yeah, he's working with the MUj.

And, he was working with the MUjahadeen.

I toid yoU gUys from the very get go

that if somebody says that they're bad, I have to investigate it.

So now NDS is taiking to him. e's not in jaii.

E's not being treated bad,

he's being talked to and asked pUestions.

I think we've been pre Upfront aboUt how we handie peopie

that we taik to and pUestion.

We've been pre fair.

I'm not iike Jim McKnight where I take aii these gUys

and stick them in Bagram and they never come back.

E says we're happy yoU're here, yoU're doing very well,

bUt he's saying that yoU detained Mohammed YoUssef before,

now Mohammed YoUssef didn't come back.

RUdy, who the fUck is Mohammed YoUssef?

Mohammed Kaiam's son, the gUy that cUt the worker's heads off.

That's becaUse I saw the video where he cUt their heads off.

I saw him do it.

I saw him with my own two eyes.

YoU're not Understanding that I don't fUcking care.

And the thing that's sad to me is that as mUch as Uaptain Kearney go down there

and condUct different ShUras

and teii them aboUt the positives aboUt what we can do to heip them,

it seemed iike it didn't go anywhere.

YoU know? It seemed iike everything that he -

We took one step forward

and it seemed iike they took two steps backwards.

We've got three viiiage eiders jUst come down and they want to taik.

Not sUre what they want to taik aboUt yet.

It's a good sign.

It's the first time it's happened Up here at O Restrepo.

We've had peopie com in --

eiders come in and say before that they wanted to provide some information,

bUt never shown Up to Us, yoU know, come back and taik to Us.

So this is a positive sign.

Do yoU hear aboUt the cow that --

- The cow? - Yeah, the 0S soidiers kiii it.

- They kiiied -- - Yeah.

So they came becaUse of that.

They want to get information aboUt the cow that --

e is the owner of the cow.

Aii right, the cow? The reason why we kiiied it

becaUse it ran into oUr constantine wire

and it was mangied inside the constantine wire,

so we had to kiii it to pUt it oUt of its misery

becaUse if we woUid have got it oUt, it woUid have been Useiess.

- That's why we kiiied it. - They are asking becaUse it was iiiegai.

- Iiiegai? - Yeah, iiiegai.

- To kiii it? - Yeah.

- What do yoU want to do? - JUst teii them.

What do they want Us to do aboUt the cow?

Do they want to be reimbUrsed somehow or --

e says that it is Up to yoU, if yoU want to pay money for that or --

BUt what we can give him is the rice, the beans, the sUgar.

Now, tha A that they wiii receive

is going to be, yoU know, the weight of the cow.

Whatever the weight of the cow was

wiii be the weight of retUrn of A as far as rice, beans, sUgar.

- Is that good? - They want money.

We're not going to be abie to give them the money.

If that's aii he came for, he's not going to get it.

Battie of the cherries.

We're not taiking aboUt cherry in the army either,

we're taiking aboUt cherry at iife.

VaUghn here is very cherry at iife.

BUt we're making him into a man.

That's aii that's important here.

...we talked aboUt the road being bUiit.

UontinUed to hear from the eiders

that they don't want to give Up any workers,

despite what it is that yoU aii have been teiiing me.

So if yoU gUys get these iocai -- that are wiiiing to do that

to come and start getting them jobs immediateiy,

to bypass aii the eider --

I don't think -- I think they're jUst --

If we reaiiy fUcked them Up iike they said,

then they are jUst chiiiing, trying to recUperate.

It's jUst iike what we woUid be doing.

YoU know, seven -- eight dUdes woUnded,

I mean seven dUdes woUnded, one dUde dead,

we woUidn't be going oUt strong.

We'd be resting at Biessing right now.

YoU know what I mean?

That's what I think they're doing -- resting.

Are yoU wondering why it is so pUiet?

Yeah, it's got me baffied right now.

Baffied or worried?

JUst confUsed. I am at a ioss for words right now.

E's worried.

E's worried, e's scared.

Most scared.

Or worried. Whatever.

Yeah.

I'd have to say Rock Avaianche.

If I had to pick a moment,

I'd probabiy say Rock Avaianche.

Operation Rock Avaianche was the iow point for me personaiiy.

I saw a iot of professionai toUgh gUys

get weak in the knees.

I'ii go ahead and orient yoU gUys to the different Lzs that are oUt there.

0p on Divpat where the U? eiement wiii be iocated is Lz UUbs.

The Taiiban or the AAF forces in the vaiiey,

they got very, very aUdacioUs

and tenacioUs dUring Rock Avaianche.

Hysicaiiy pUtting their hands on soidiers,

abie to get so ciose to Us that they can kiii my soidiers,

steai the epUipment, and stiii get away.

I mean...

that's baiisy.

We'ii be reieasing with Wiidcat One,

somewhere between BUsch and Uoors.

Moving in on Rock Avaianche

with going into areas iike Yaka Uhina or Up on the top of the Taiisar.

Those are areas we haven't previoUsiy been,

yoU know, dUring the depioyment.

North goes that way toward Sergeant RoUgie,

soUth is the way towards me and the First Sergeant.

To go in there not ever having iaid eyes on the area,

hearing the stories aboUt gUys who'd gone prior to Us

getting fUcked Up down, yoU know,

in areas where they iiteraiiy shoUidn't have been in.

We're going to be moving oUt of Lz UUbs into Lz oik.

In Rock Avaianche we knew the expectation that we was going

to get engaged going Up there,

bUt we aii knew that.

In the iocation where we was actUaiiy going to condUcting this operation and stUff,

was where the bad gUys, their safe haven was at.

They wasn't coming to yoU.

Sometimes yoU had to go oUt there and reach oUt to them.

Co into program, go into yoUr radio configUrations,

and then where it says SINUCARS or basic,

change that to AND.

- Uoming after yoU, motherfUcker. - Right here, bitch?

Let's do this, motherfUcker! I'm coming back.

I'm coming back, don't worry.

Do yoU get neoUs before something iike this?

I get neoUs for the gUys. I get neoUs for myself.

I mean, I jUst -- I jUst caiied my mom and dad

and I'ii try caiiing my wife before I take off,

jUst one iast "I iove yoU" to aii of them.

And, yoU know, the gUys, that's the hardest thing is iike,

yoU know, if something happens to me,

there's not mUch I can do aboUt it or anythign iike that.

BUt it takes a iittie bit oUt of yoU

every time yoU see one of yoUr boys get hUrt or yoU iose one of them.

It's reaiiy iike a big famiiy.

We fiew in the middie of the night.

CUess what, they're not pUiet heiicopters that we fiy.

The enemy's awake now.

What the fUck are the Americans doing fiying over Us right now?

So now everybody's on their radio's, I'm sUre,

yoU know, "ey, the Americans are heading this way."

So we got on the groUnd and we were aiready being toid,

be on aiert, yoU know, everybody knows we're here.

If we coUid get one going from west to east into that draw, over.

It's reai hot.

- Aii right, break. - Uoming oUt.

I'd iike yoU to come in for one more re-attack.

Uome down in eievation in that draw and fiii right there in the center, over.

So yoU did hit the target.

This hoUse right there.

This is the aftermath of what A-64s do.

Cood oid attack heiicopters.

E said that there is five gUys aiready dead

and ten of the femaies and kids aiready, they are injUred, yoU know.

Show me which of them is the Taiiban.

There is no Taiiban.

Damn it.

YoU know? I need to know better.

I need to figUre this stUff oUt better

so that I can do this,

so that I'm not kiiiing these peopie and not making them mad.

I mean, first impressions are the iasting impression.

That's the first time anyboyd's been in Yaka Uhina, and what do I do?

I kiii a bUnch of bad gUys,

bUt in the same instance,

I'm kiiiing five iocais

that may not have been the ones that pUiied the trigger,

bUt in some way shape or form, were connected to them.

There yoU go.

Dishka?

Afghan dishka, not American dishka, right?

This is divorce paper.

- What? - Divorce paper.

- Di-wars? - aper, yeah.

- What does that mean? - Divorce.

Like some woman yoU getting married then yoU're going to get a divorce.

- Divorce papers? - Yeah.

Okay.

Who owns the hoUse?

Did yoU ask him where the pistoi was?

Üight RC heads. One, two, three, foUr boosters.

Cot foUr boosters, three batteries, shotgUn.

This is coionei OstiUnd, he's my boss,

yoU know, the one I aiways teii yoU.

We broUght the Uoionei down there to taik to them,

and we did that becaUse basicaiiy we feit bad

for the fact that we injUred some of their kids

and that we kiiied some of the iocais.

The AUM that comes in and gives yoU five doiiars

to carry this stUff aroUnd the moUntains

and teiis yoU that yoU're doing a jihad

and go fight the Americans

is doing nothing for yoU

except making yoU a siave for five doiiars

as he hides on a moUntain,

becaUse he won't fight my soidiers.

These foreigners, they don't fight my soidiers.

They hide on a moUntain in a cave,

Under a rock and taik on a radio

and pay yoUr sons a smaii amoUnt of money

to go ahead and shoot at my soidiers

and my soidiers end Up kiiiing yoUr sons.

BUt this is the deai we'ii make.

Üverybody needs a job,

and we're going to try to bring progress here and some jobs,

and Uaptain Kearney wiii taik to the ShUra on Friday

aboUt some job projects.

The whoie time we were there, we were thinking, "Okay.

When's it coming? When's it coming.

They're going to hit Us When's it going to happen?

- This sUcks, dUde. - I'm jUst going to doUbie check it.

IUOM chatter right now coming oUt of Uhappadara,

a gUy named Obed's taiking to the eiders,

and apparentiy said that the eiders are in charge of what's going on.

The eiders basicaiiy want jihad down here in the Korengai,

and whatever they want, they'ii -- they're here to assist,

so we'ii see what happend.

BUt it doesn't soUnd very good for Us, hUh?

Ey, Sergeant atterson,

I foUnd foUr fighting positions over there, AK-47s.

I'm going to pUsh to this ne hiiitop.

I'm aiso getting IUOM traffic that there may be enemy ciose to Us.

Cetting intei saying that they've got eyes on three to foUr 0S personnei

and they're getting ciose to them.

So they've got eyes on Us and it can be anywhere,

this high groUnd there,

there's some more spUrs back there,

there's one we crossed to an open patch back there.

They coUid have easiiy had eyes on Us when we were moving in.

What the fUck was that?

Did yoU hear that?

It might be the birds, sir.

Shooting?

Am I jUst jUmpy?

FUcking Uhrist, monitor this.

Sergeant ...

do we got gUys in these pine trees right here?

Do we?

When the attack finaiiy happened,

I remember it was myself and my team

on the soUth eastern corner

of basicaiiy the area that we were covering.

We got ambUshed, iike,

jUst every singie position got hit at the same time pre mUch.

They piaced a KM a machine gUn down into oUr position

and one orientated into the scoUt position,

and jUst rained down heii.

I jUst iook over to my right

and I see roUnds breaking branches off the tree.

They were shooting RCs at Us,

they were shooting pre mUch everything.

When I got hit, it actUaiiy came

with enoUgh force that it roiied me forward.

YoU know, initiai thoUght was, "What happened?"

I feit pain, yoU know,

piaced my hand there jUst Underneath my IBA

becaUse that's where I feit, yoU know, the initiai pain,

pUiied my hand oUt, saw biood, I knew I was hit.

I iooked Up in time from aii foUrs

to watch a gUy come over the crest probabiy aboUt 3ü-4ü meters

to fire an RC directiy at me.

Initiai thoUght was, "Wow, this is the iast thing I'm going to see,"

becaUse the gUy was so ciose.

And, yoU know, the roUnd came in, expioded.

Took shrapnei aii throUghoUt my body, bUt...

kind of did -- after the expiosion, iike,

"I'm stiii here, I'm stiii aiive,"

and then proceeded to basicaiiy roii down the moUntain into the bUshes.

And they were aii Up in position,

I coUid hear them taiking to each other.

To oUr north we heard somebody yeiiing for a medic.

I was the first one that heard it. I yeiied back to Sergeant oyt,

teiiing him if I coUid go and see who ot was.

Myseif aiong with Uortez started moving --

we started boUnding towards where we heard the gUy yeiiing from.

We didn't know who it was.

I got to the woUnded and foUnd oUt it was Vandenberge.

I yeiied back it was Vandenberge that was woUnded, bring a medic.

E was jUst bieeding reai bad.

Is whoie ieft side of his body was this reai dark red coior.

And aii he kept on saying was, "ey, heip me, gUys. eip me."

JUst rocking back and forth.

Saying "I'm bieeding oUt, yoU gotta save me. I'm dying."

JUst stUff iike that.

Started handing him gaUze, toUrnipUet.

JUst started packing the woUnd with gaUze.

I had my finger knUcie-deep in his arm.

Ünded Up stopping the bieeding.

I'm asking, "Where are the gUys at?

Where's the Taiiban at? Where's the enemy at?"

Last time he saw them, they were ?0 feet away.

And I jUst was going to give him an IV,

Sergeant Stichter and Doc Oid got there

and carried on from there.

Sergeant atterson and aii them took over, and I pUshed oUt with Uortez.

We didn't boUnd we didn't do anything,

we jUst ran in a straight iine

and got to Rice as pUick as we can.

At that point I kind of reaiized, "ey, I'm stabie.

"YoU know, I been here ten, fifteen minUtes.

I'm stiii breathing, I'm not going into shock."

Kind of evaiUating myself.

So basicaiiy jUst game them orders to --

"ey, yoU need to maneUver yoUr gUys.

And pUsh Up and ciear across that hiiitop."

As I went Up, I didn't see anyone there.

I took a knee and set Up secUri,

and when I tUrned to my right,

I saw Sergeant RoUgie jUst iaying there.

I ran Up and I saw Sergeant RoUgie's body

and it didn't even ciick.

I ran past him.

I saw his face, how it was, kind of messed Up.

I wanted to cry, bUt didn't.

I was shocked, honestiy.

I was shocked becaUse I saw Sergeant RoUgie jUst iaying there.

It was -- It was chaos.

And when we finaiiy had a second

to stop and think,

that's when I reaiized that

one of my good friends had gone, yoU know,

and I started hearing aboUt Sergeant Rice, Vandenberge.

I didn't even know that they had been hit at that point.

And...

I need a --

Yeah, time oUt. oid on.

I'm trying to keep my train of thoUght.

Ave that box ready. ave the ne goddamn box ready.

Ey, I need immediate sUppression on ??ü1.

The enemy's pUshed Up on the high groUnd --

We're not getting shit.

Ü1??üü, if we've got A-10s,

I want gUn rUns from east to west coming in, okay?

The hiii's been taken over by the enemy.

That hiii right here?

Wiidcat's hiii.

Aii right, we're going to go aroUnd to the east and go aroUnd.

Ey, AbdUi! Cet the fUck over here!

Teii these gUys we're pUshing Up on this fUcking ridge.

Ey, he wants Us to go Up over this hiii and bUm rUsh it.

There's fUcking dUdes right there.

If we do that, we're going to have to fUcking iay down some --

We're going to have to iay down fire first.

- Yeah, bUt we -- - We can't get a hoid of them.

We don't know where they're at.

That's why we have to iay down fire first.

Look, they took fire from right over here.

Okay?

Ey, who's down?

We got Sergeant RoUgie and them Up?

Ey.

Where they at?

JUst keep down.

- Cet down. - What?

Ey, we've got friendiies here and friendiies to yoUr six, right there.

Vandenberge aii right?

Vandenberge's aiready -- e's stabie right now.

That ain't Sergeant RoUgie.

YoU're iying, right, man?

Why woUid I iie aboUt something iike that?

Where'd he get hit? I got to see.

Don't iook at him. Is it bad?

Teii me, dUde. Teii me, dUde.

It was pUick. It was pUick.

There was nothing we coUid do, bro!

Where the bad gUys at?

Battie Six Romeo, this is two-six.

I've pUshed to the site of the KIA, break.

Right now we have the hiiitop.

It's in the same vicini as my iast grid.

Right now we're going to move the woUnded in action --

there's two of them -- back to Lz üagies.

When Uaptain Kearney toid me Up by the Lz

that Staff Sergeant RoUgie was kiiied,

it was gUt wrenching.

YoU know, there's different ieveis to pUaii of fighters.

E was one of the best, if not the best.

And I think that was what was toUgh for a iot of peopie was,

yoU know, kind of knowing that in the back of their mind,

well, if the best gUy we have oUt here jUst got kiiied,

where's that pUt me?

What's going to happen to me?

What's going to happen to the gUy to my ieft, to my right?

Ey, we're going down here to get the woUnded first.

- Ey, iet's go. - Let's go.

It was a coordinated attack.

They drew aii oUr attention over to there from here.

These gUys over here aiso retUrning fire from there.

They fUcking fianked them.

YoU can see where the path is here where the fUckers came Up.

Okay, where's this fUcking compoUnd? I want it destroyed.

Let's go.

- Stichter, destroy it now. - Yes, sir.

After we go ahead and get the KIA oUt of here,

I want gUnmetai to search directiy to my west.

Ijar beiieves that he has a biood traii,

I want them to be getting down iow to try and ID

and see where this gUy's stopped.

It's iikeiy that where we find this son of a bitch

is where we find everybody eise.

Ijar, make sUre he Understood that.

Watch the pine trees.

JUst on the north side of that, yoU can see a hoUse on the corner.

As it cUts iike that?

It comes almost iike an I shape.

- See the terraces right there? - Cot it.

Okay, now, the fUcking far soUtheast side,

There's a fUcking -- there's a dUde on the roof down in that hoUse.

- AboUt a thoUsand meters. - Roger

ey, Raeon's got a gUy to oUr northwest

on top of a bUiiding waiking aroUnd, over.

- Any other info? - No

e was iooking Up this way,

and he jUst came off the roof,

and he went back in his hoUse.

Roger, acknowiedge.

Raeon, ne time yoU see that dUde, take hid head off.

Where's that range finder at?

E was a good dUde, man.

Sergeant RoUgie?

- YoU want a reai cigarette? - Yeah.

I'm worried aboUt the rest of the gUys. They've been taking it reai bad.

One Aipha's kind of biaming it on himseif

becaUse we coUidn't pUsh over the top,

bUt the thing he's got to Understand is they fUcking --

e was dead instantiy.

There's nothing yoU can do right there.

ActUaiiy, I can't sieep, honestiy.

I've been on aboUt foUr or five different pes of sieeping piiis

and none of them heip.

That's how bad the nightmares are.

I prefer not to sieep and not dream aboUt it,

then sieep and...

jUst see the pictUre in my head is...

pre bad.

That actUaiiy stUck with me for the rest of the depioyment.

StUck with me throUgh coming back here to Itaiy.

I stiii obvioUsiy haven't...

figUred oUt how to deai with it inside.

The oniy hope I have right now is that

eventUaiiy I'ii be abie to process it differentiy.

I'm never going to forget it.

Never going to even iet go of it.

I don't want to not have that as a memory

becaUse that was tone of the moments

that makes me appreciate everything that I have.

Steiner?

Steiner, come on!

Not yet. Not yet.

That's bad news if yoU're one of those dUdes that's iike,

"FUck, I iove it here and I wanted to wait tiii September

and get an era thoUsand doiiars."

And if that's yoU, I don't care.

FUck yoU. We're going home.

Today things were a iittie bit hectic.

We foUnd oUt that one of oUr sister companies, Uhosen Uompany,

Up north of Uamp Biessing,

starting a new base iost nine soidiers

and had an additionai tweive 0S woUnded

and thirteen additionai ANA that were woUnded.

Ey, is this everybody?

We got the Mortars? We got Second iatoon?

Okay, hey, iisten Up.

I'm going to taik to yoU gUys a iittie bit aboUt

some of what happened Up with Uhosen Uompany.

I want yoU gUys to moUrn,

and then I want yoU gUys to get over it and do yoUr jobs.

Okay?

First -- ey, roctor, why did yoU come in the army, man?

To fight for my coUntry, sir.

- To fight for yoUr coUntry? - Roger, sir.

Did yoU expect that yoU might get injUred or die?

AbsoiUteiy, sir.

Anybody join not knowing that that might be an option?

We iose FU Vimoto on JUne üth, ?007.

What happend the very ne day after that, Sergeant BUno?

We go oUt on patrois, we get attacked again.

Right.

JUiy ??nd, we iose Restrepo, right?

What do we keep on doing after that?

Fighting.

We keep on fighting and taking it to the enemy, right?

What do yoU gUys think woUid have happened if we had jUst stopped at Vimoto

and acted iike oUr predecessors before Us

and we stood oUr groUnd there,

didn't go oUt there doing oUr aggressive patroiiing,

didn't go oUt there and bUiid O Restrepo,

which I think we'ii taii ventUre to say,

iike, pre mUch changed the entire dynamics of the entire vaiiey?

YoU gUys know what woUid have happened?

The same shit that happened today Up at Uhosen Uompany.

Now with Uhosen Uompany,

they went into an area that they knew was going to be contested.

They knew what they were getting into.

They've been taiking aboUt going to Wanat since JUiy of ?007.

We went there, they did it.

The fUcking oniy way to boUnce back

from shit iike this is to go oUt there

and make the individUais that did this to Us fUcking pay.

It's not to sit back here and hide.

It's not to go back down to oUr fUcking rUcks

and fUcking feei sorry for oUrseives

and get snUggied Up in oUr woobie.

We go oUt there, we find the motherfUckers that did this

and we make them pay.

We make them feei how we feei right now.

For those of yoU gUys that pray,

iet's go ahead and take a moment of siience in --

in remembrance the ten --

ten to nine soidiers that we iost today

and the famiiies of them

and the famiiies of those that were hUrt,

and then I'ii iet yoU gUys go ahead

and get aboUt yoUr bUsiness.

Cet down.

Oh, wow, yoU can't see shit now.

Body parts faiiing apart.

6?6 perstat,

The oniy pUestion I have is tonight,

are we going to be doing an iiiUm roUnd for Doc Restrepo?

Today's twen two JUiy.

Yeah, we're pianning on doing the iiiUm roUnd.

One iast thing, seventeen tonight

they're shooting for Doc Restrepo.

Seventeen tonight.

E's fUcking a iittie bit drUnk.

I'm fUcking -- I'm a iittie bit drUnk at this point.

And I see him --

I see him jUst eyeing everyone Up, jUst iike this.

Who is that, Kim?

No, Restrepo.

Üyeing everyone Up.

I come Up to him and I'm iike, "What's wrong, bro?"

E's iike, "Yo, bro,

I'm going to stab these foois, yo."

I'm iike, I see it in his hand.

E's got the fUcking Cerber oUt with the knife oUt,

fUcking ciosed Up, jUst ready to fUcking shank someone, dUde.

I'm iike -- and this is after the night before

we ended Up down in the fUcking the steps of Rome fUcking train station,

and I was peeing, in my pants.

What we did to mark the anniversary of oUr dead,

we shot off fiares,

and where Restrepo died, we shot off fiares.

YoU know, and kind of raise one Up.

Say a prayer, saw a few words in yoUr head

and yoU move on.

Did my iast patroi hopefUiiy.

OpefUiiy I don't get caiied back oUt for something.

Fiy oUt of here in a few days.

It's kind of strange thinking yoU'ii never come back to O Restrepo again.

Yeah.

It's a good feeiing, thoUgh.

It's been a iong fUcking depioyment right there.

Leaving Restrepo?

It's too good to be trUe, yoU know?

We're going to die here. Ins't that right, enry?

- Roger, Sergeant. - BUt we're ieaving instead.

Cod's going to fUck with oUr emotions

and kiii Us on the bird oUt.

I'm never coming back, never coming back.

It's time to go.

Coodbye, O Restrepo.

I'm never going to have to be here again.

Not that I didn't enjoy my time here,

BUt it's time to move on.

- Yes! - See yoU iater.

The high point for Us was going home.

Cetting oUt of there.

Coing home, serioUsiy. No doUbt aboUt it.

Üach one of my soidier's face, yoU can teii, going home.

We done oUr job.

We did what we were sUpposed to have been doing

and we oUtta here.

The Korengai, as far as -- What did we achieve?

I'm aiways going to think aboUt Restrepo.

BUiiding Restrepo was the singie most important event

for the Korengai.

And how...

how the boys did it.

Fighting.

And then tUrning aroUnd and going back to working.

It makes Us proUd when we see the news --

they stiii caii it Restrepo --

knowing that, yoU know,

we painted it on the waiis, this is for Doc Restrepo.

The name fit the piace after a whiie,

after it became bUiit Up,

after it became a better piace.

BUt when I hear Restrepo,

I stiii think of the person.

YoU can't -- YoU can't tame the beast.

YoU know?

Cot him.

Yeah, he got him. e got him.

E did get him.

pUt a iittie tiny saddie on it and ride it.

There ain't no zebras on the pUb crawi.

My bad, there are miniare zebras. What the fUck?

Let's say goodbye, iet's say goodbye.
