Historia
“The Devil’s Playground” was anything south of the second canal to the men of Charlie Company’s 2nd Platoon—Two Charlie—during their 2009–2010 deployment to the Arghandab River Valley in Afghanistan. The valley had been a notorious hot spot throughout history, with the Russians unable to maintain a foothold in the 80s and Coalition forces now facing the same problem during Operation Enduring Freedom.

The true cost of freedom: A captivating story
Revisado: 12-03-24
This book is, without a doubt, one of the best I have ever read. It left me in awe of the incredible courage and sacrifice of the men who fought in Afghanistan, shedding light on a part of history I knew little about. As someone who was previously ignorant of the wars in Afghanistan, this book opened my eyes to the harrowing realities these soldiers faced.
From the very first page, I was captivated. The author did a phenomenal job of making a complex and painful subject both accessible and gripping. Despite the chaos and sorrow that unfolds throughout the story, the narrative is clear and easy to follow. It never once lost my attention, and I found myself unwilling to put it down, completely immersed in the lives of these brave men.
What really struck me about this book was its portrayal of the cost of freedom — not just in terms of the sacrifices made on the battlefield, but also the emotional and psychological toll these soldiers endured. The book doesn't shy away from showing the trauma that stays with them long after the fighting ends. The way the author honors both the fallen and the living is deeply moving, reminding readers of the true price of war.
If you're on the fence about reading this book, let this review be your sign to pick it up. It’s a powerful and emotional story that not only informs but also resonates long after you turn the final page. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the true cost of war and the incredible men who fought for our freedom.
Support these heroes, learn their stories, and gain a deeper understanding of the sacrifices made for our country. Don’t hesitate — buy the book and experience it for yourself.
