Yes, the hook at the end kept me engaged. If this keeps up you'll have to charge for the subscription. Your reference to a ranger raid in kandahar flashed a light. In WWII Rangers fought in battalion size units on long duration deep penetration operations behind enemy lines. In Vietnam ranger operations were divided into short range small reconnaissance teams (alpha) and larger longer range deep penetration teams (delta). Of course I have little information about Afghani operations except for the early excursions when a small horse mounted group linked up with the Northern Alliance and almost destroyed the Al Chaeda command structure in Tora Bora in 2001. My neighbor was the CIA station chief in Afghanistan, a veteran of OSS in the China theater. In sum, I like your story. I would buy the book.
