    The lone survivor men who died will always be remembered. I corresponded once with Matt’s mother years ago, and she returned my e mail, was just such a gracious woman.
    I always was so sad for Matt’s widow, and his older brother had admired Matt so much.

    I remember watching this movie on tv a couple years after it came out. My wife had recently passed and I had been staying strong for my kids sake. When the movie showed the one chinook getting shot down by a rpg I lost it. Luckily nobody was home but that scene was very powerful. My dad was a chinook crew chief in Vietnam and I was named after his best friend that was killed in another chinook unit from my dad’s.

      I actually know a guy who is/was on the teams & watching the movie I was thinking about those goat herders & I'm thinking no way does my friend just let them go like that. And then seeing the Chinook get shot down,that got to me too. The operators are 1 thing but losing that many members of the QRF was unforgivable

    Berg is good at the thing he does with film, I like his style. Friday Night Lights is one that holds up. RIP to those lost on that tragedy. Stories get convoluted and murky, but at the end of the day, Lone Survivor honors those who died. And that's what matters most.

    The Marines of 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marines, who had planned OP RED WINGS, were going after a relatively low level target named Ahmed Shaw, as their previous operations, and the unit they'd replaced, had nabbed all the known high and medium value targets successfully.
    Unfortunately, they were not part of a Marine Air Ground Task Force, and didn't possess organic lift assets needed to conduct it. So they asked for helo support from 160th SOAR (the famed Night Stalkers) who were assigned to Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force-Afghanistan (CJSOTF-A). The region SOTF command was run by SEALs who only agreed as long as they were to run the recon, and act as the main effort assault element to conduct the air assault raid against the target buildings thought to house the HVTs, while the rest of the Marine infantry company tasked with supporting missions, specifically the outer cordon. Because they had no options, and they wanted the mission to go ahead to nab the bad guy, the Marines agreed. This is not uncommon, its actually the norm. SOCOM are often on the lookout for good missions and they often get them from "poaching" intel or fully developed ops from conventional units.
    Per the planning of Red Wings, the recon element was was going to be inserting the day before on the high ground nearby to three named areas of interest (NAI) that were supposed to be under observation to spot the targets. They were supposed to not only confirm the presence of Shaw, but also provide additional intel. 2/3 had planned to conduct the recon using a Scout Sniper six man team, headed by a very experienced team leader. They had worked in that area often before, knew the relative ground, knew the limitations of radios, etc. Their plan was to get helo lifted miles away from the objective, land, then infiltrate by foot.
    When the SEALs poached the recon mission, the new recon element was a four man team who had never worked recon in Afghanistan before, weren't trained in recon, only one individual ever having deployed to a combat zone before. They ignored advice to bring more powerful radios, as the Marines knew from experience that the one the SEALs brought couldn't push out far enough, it didn't have enough power. Additionally, the SEAL recon team didn't have a Primary, Alternate, Contingency, Emergency (PACE) plan for comms, only having the weak MBITR and a sat phone as backup. Neither were adequate, and they were warned.
    More so, their plan was significantly flawed. Not wanting to spent the time and energy walking to the objective, they decided to get helo inserted a few hundred meters away. They attempted to mitigate the risk of landing near directly on the Observation Point (OP) by having numerous false insertions done all over the valley area over the previous week, to keep the locals guessing, which only ended up tipping them off that an operation was in the works. But in recon, its an outright sin to ever airlift onto the OP. Every measure must be taken to keep it hidden, to keep the presence of the recon team hidden.
    After they fast roped down on the landing zone, per norm, the fast ropes were disconnected from the helicopter, but the SEAL recon team did not hide them, they left them in the open. Locals, sent out when they'd heard the choppers, found them pretty quickly, and using their own comms, reported it back. At that time the SEAL team had made it to the high ground and beyond, were trying to find a good OP to overwatch the NAIs, which proved difficult as the position they initially chose at night proved poor when light came at dawn. After daybreak they moved OPs.
    Map of area and NAI and OPs
    The locals, knowing ISAF rules of engagement, sent up some unarmed individuals, with radios, with some sheep, into the hills to scout them out. This is a common TTP in COIN ops to find snipers and recon element hide sites. In Iraq, they'd sent kids or unarmed adults to check on certain buildings, knowing we wouldn't kill them if we found them. If they found us, they'd report back. It worked during Red Wings. The SEAL recon team was spotted. Compromised, they detained the sheepherders.
    At that point the operation was blown. They have just been soft compromised, though without knowing it they'd also been hard compromised as those herders were part of a deliberate counter-recon element so Shaw and the enemy fighters in the village knew they'd been caught when they didn't report back. But because the SEAL recon team never established a formal plan for being compromised they had to make the decision on the spot of what to do. Instead of executing the actions of a pre-made drill for compromise, (depending on the story version) they got into a debate about what to do and even possibly held a vote. Confusion was also on what to do with the detainees. AT NO TIME WAS KILLING THEM ACTUALLY A LEGAL OPTION. Or realistic. The easiest thing to do would have been to gag them and flex cuff them to a tree. Instead they let them go (where they instantly ran off to warn everyone), while the SEALs picked up and moved, but not far.
    So after being compromised, the SEALs moved to high ground to make the call on their radio to alert the command element what had happened. Note, they didn't vacate the area, they moved maybe a hundred meters away from where they'd been spotted. Meanwhile, their comms weren't working, so the radio traffic was broken taking far longer than it should have without any real benefit of transmitting information.
    Meanwhile, the local enemy, realistically numbering about 12 fighters, having been briefed by the returning herders on the location of the SEALs, their size, their weapons, created a plan, climbed the hills to reach a position where they could ambush the infidels on their way back up to the high ground which was on the way back to the LZ (which they sent RPG gunners to overwatch in case a helicopter showed up).
    Finally, the SEAL recon team moving back toward the high ground through a draw (the NE Gulch), but got ambushed at relatively close range by roughly a squad sized element in strength, with machine guns. Possibly RPG and mortar, though in the video the insurgents made I never saw evidence of explosive weaponry.
    Map of ambush, blue arrow is SEAL retreat
    The fight was brief, and the SEALs that weren't hit immediately tried to break contact downhill. Luttrell effectively fell down the mountain, while the patrol leader, Mike Murphy, made a call on the sat phone before dying. The other two died during this time too. They didn't kill any of the locals, it was an entirely one sided fight.
    The Quick Reaction Force 10 SEALs in a 160th SOAR Chinook, escorted by two Apaches. The SEAL mission commander aboard the Chinook ordered the pilots to reach the LZ ASAP, and because the Chinook flies faster than the Apaches they arrived first. Because the Apaches weren't present, despite them having the thermal optics that would have been able to visually clear the landing zone, and the weaponry to physically clear it, the Chinook flared and started its landing, in broad daylight, under the observation of RPG gunner stationed there, and was targeted and hit, crashing, killing all onboard.
    Map of area of operations, with original RT insertion LZ and QRF LZ/Shootdown pos marked
    Another SOCOM QRF element, of primarily Rangers, were sent in the next day, they landed elsewhere and walked in, they are the ones who found Luttrell, who had been rescued by a villager in a local village, who apparently still had all his mags, loaded. They also recovered the bodies and secured the helicopter crash site.
    Besides recovering all weapons and equipment belonging to the SEALs, and having video footage of the fight, the local leader and target of the raid, Ahmed Shaw, also got a computer they'd brought that once broken into possessed the schematics of the US embassy in Kabul, as well as other sensitive information. He took that intel, and the videos, and cobbled together an effective propaganda video that earned him major credibility, which led to increased funding, recruitment, etc., causing him to turn into a legitimate High Value Target.

      Well your correct kind of, the situation is true but way over built up, it wasn't a 100 or 200 Taliban soilders it was more like 8-15, and Marcus Luttrell soon as the bullets started flying he threw down his rifle and quit, took off running up the mountain and he left his buddies yelling at him on the radio for help, Axel would have been the true lone survivor he lived for 10 days after Marcus was picked up. I hope Marcus had his trident ripped from his military record. The fact that he has a political position the US government disgusts me!

    Speaking to the commenters, not Peter. Peter doesn’t know better. You can’t hide behind the true losses and tragedy, and by default the story is above scrutiny.
    It’s been a well known fact for years in the veteran community that this story was false. There are numerous people that were there, that denied what was told in the book and in the movie. That’s not up for debate.
    That doesn’t mean we have to deny everything having to do with the story. We can still watch and appreciate the people who tried to do right by service members, because it’s not like they knew NSW have a habit of getting ahead of certain stories by pushing their own narrative with a furious vigor.

The Rangers also asked him where his team was & he said they were all dead. They found the bodies of 2 of them but couldn't find Axel & didnt find him until 10 days later. When they did find him they said it looked like he had been dead for only a day.

      @@stephenwcarter6919the book victory point talks about it I have a wall of text I can post.
      It talks about how the socom poached the mission from USMC marines, how marines warned the seals that the radios they had weren’t powerful enough. How none of the seals except one had even seen combat and none of them had trained in recon most were trained as UDT divers (so command sent them to landlocked Afghanistan) how they didn’t wanna ruc to the OP so they opted to be fast roped on it (which is a sin in special recon ops) they did a series of false insertions to try and Pavlov dog the insurgents into not checking all this did btw was tip locals of that an operation was in the works. Shaw sent those goat herders as deliberate counter recon this isn’t new this is what insurgents have done in Iraq and Afghanistan send unarmed dudes sometimes kids knowing you can’t hurt them ( at no point was killing them a legal or realistic option) they would still have been hard compromised as shaw wouldn’t have had a report back and if they did do the illegal option they would have gave insurgents a propaganda victory and still most likely lost. Insurgents realistically were around 12 fighters who after linking up with the counter recon team knew the seals size and firepower and simply splint into two team with a pkm each and RPGs. It couldn’t have been 200 to 100 that village could only support around 35 people tops these villages do subsistence farming. I don’t blame Luttrel tbh he was doing what the DOD asked of him I blame his command for sending him and his friends knowing of the seals never say no attitude they’re programmed to have.

When found all of his magazines were full, he never fired a shot. This isn't up for debate, a lot of members from that recovery op to get Marcus have testified to that.

    If it is true that Latrell still had all his magazines fully loaded. Then that means he deserted his team during the fight of their lives. He should not be treated as a hero in any way. His team families should sue him for all the money he made off the book and movie.

    Luttrells story is completely fabricated. He didn't get shot and blown up multiple times, he didn't break his back and crawl 7 or 8 miles. He ran like a coward, was found un injured, no bullet wounds, no broken back, he had all his mags. And then lied and said his whole team was dead when Axe was still in the fight. If he wouldn't have said they were all dead they would have went on immediate extraction and would have found Axe in bad shape but still alive. Instead they went 3 or 4 days later and when they did find him he had expended all his ammo and also was said he had only been dead for 36 hrs at most. Luttrell admitted to dropping his rifle and covering his ears because Murphy was yelling for him while he was getting shot multiple times then ultimately dying from those mortal wounds. That's when he picked up ran and left his team behind like the coward he truly is. And this isn't at all my opinion these are facts exposed by guys who were there and guys who have seen the thermal imaging of him running down the mountain while his team was in the fight doing the job they trained for. And there wasn't hundreds of guys like he said. There was 30 at the very most. I'd be ashamed of myself if I was Peter and made this movie.

    Marcus's twin brother filled in for him during B.U.D.S for 2-3 days so Marcus could have a wittle rest with his binky.
