The Shocking True Story of American Soldiers Abandoned By Their High Command
![Jese Leos](https://epilogueepic.com/author/alex-foster.jpg)
War often brings out the best and the worst in humanity. In the annals of military history, stories of bravery, sacrifice, and camaraderie mingle with tales of betrayal, corruption, and the abandonment of principles. Today, we will unveil the shocking true story of a group of American soldiers who were left behind by their own high command during a crucial operation, sacrificing their lives on the altar of political expediency.
The Fateful Operation
It was the summer of 1968 during the height of the Vietnam War. A platoon of young American soldiers, brimming with patriotism and courage, was assigned to a perilous mission deep in the heart of enemy territory. Their objective was to conduct reconnaissance on a suspected Viet Cong stronghold in a remote village, believed to be a key supply route for the insurgents.
The soldiers embarked on this mission with a sense of duty and determination, fully aware of the risks involved. They formed a tight-knit unit, relying on each other for support and survival. They knew that the battlefield was a place where loyalty and trust were paramount, as their lives depended on the men beside them.

The Abandonment
As the soldiers made their way through dense jungles and treacherous terrain, they faced countless obstacles and ambushes from the enemy. But the gravest danger they faced was not from the Viet Cong, but from their own high command.
As the platoon engaged in fierce combat, their position was compromised, and they found themselves surrounded by enemy forces. In desperate need of reinforcements, they radioed for help, expecting their high command to promptly respond and provide the support they so desperately needed.
But to their shock and dismay, their pleas for assistance fell on deaf ears. The high command, driven by political considerations and a fear of escalating the conflict, decided to abandon the platoon, leaving them to fend for themselves in an unwinnable battle.
The Heroic Stand
Realizing the betrayal they had just experienced, the soldiers fought with unmatched bravery and determination. They refused to surrender or back down, knowing that their survival depended on their unwavering spirit and resilience.
Days turned into weeks as the platoon endured relentless enemy attacks. They fought tooth and nail, banded together by their shared sense of brotherhood and the desire to expose the treachery that had befallen them.
News of their heroic struggle reached the media, igniting a firestorm of public outrage. Americans back home were shocked to learn about the actions of their own high command and the dire situation in which their soldiers had been abandoned.
The Aftermath
Eventually, after weeks of intense fighting, a brave helicopter crew managed to evacuate the remaining soldiers. Their story became a stain on the military establishment's reputation and served as a stark reminder of the lengths some are willing to go for personal gain, even at the expense of their own troops.
The soldiers returned home to a nation divided by the war but united in their support for the brave men who had been left behind. They were hailed as heroes, shining a light on the dark underbelly of war and the sacrifices made by those who fight on the frontlines.
Never Forget
The shocking true story of the American soldiers abandoned by their high command serves as a haunting reminder of the immoral choices made in the name of political expediency. It highlights the importance of holding those in power accountable and never forgetting the sacrifices made by brave men and women in service to their country.
As we reflect on this harrowing tale, let us remember the fallen soldiers and honor their memory by ensuring that such betrayals never happen again. The true heroes are the ones who fight for justice, defending the values we hold dear, even when their own leaders fail to do so.

Now with a forward by Sean Hannity, this powerful story of brotherhood, bravery, and patriotism exposes the true stories behind some of the Army's darkest secrets.
The Army does not want you to read this book. It does not want to advertise its detention system that coddles enemy fighters while putting American soldiers at risk. It does not want to reveal the new lawyered-up Pentagon war ethic that prosecutes U.S. soldiers and Marines while setting free spies who kill Americans.
This very system ambushed Captain Roger Hill and his men.
Hill, a West Point grad and decorated combat veteran, was a rising young officer who had always followed the letter of the military law. In 2007, Hill got his dream job: infantry commander in the storied 101st Airborne. His new unit, Dog Company, 1-506th, had just returned stateside from the hell of Ramadi. The men were brilliant in combat but unpolished at home, where paperwork and inspections filled their days.
With tough love, Hill and his First Sergeant, an old-school former drill instructor named Tommy Scott, turned the company into the top performers in the battalion.
Hill and Scott then led Dog Company into combat in Afghanistan, where a third of their men became battlefield casualties after just six months. Meanwhile, Hill found himself at war with his own battalion commander, a charismatic but difficult man who threatened to relieve Hill at every turn. After two of his men died on a routine patrol, Hill and a counterintelligence team busted a dozen enemy infiltrators on their base in the violent province of Wardak. Abandoned by his high command, Hill suddenly faced an excruciating choice: follow Army rules the way he always had, or damn the rules to his own destruction and protect the men he'd grown to love.
