Lone Survivor 2013

Is a must see on anyone's list of Afghan war movies. Riveting battle scenes.


In the photo is Muhammad Gulab, the Afghan villager, the so-called "savior" of Marcus Luttrell, who guarded him according to Pashtunwali, the honor code requiring Gulab to protect Luttrell, until Luttrell was eventually rescued.


Check out this trailer, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xxa5eS31Hk, for the real deal portrayal of the running battle according to Luttrell's account in his memoirs.
