Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Before BENGHAZI, There was EXTORTION 17. August 06, 2011, 2:20 a.m.-Operation Lefty Grove is underway, a highly dangerous mission to take out another high-level Taliban operative, three months after the death of Osama Bin Laden. In the dark of night, twenty-five US Special Ops Forces and a five-man flight crew on board Extortion 17, a CH-47 Chinook helicopter. Seven unidentified Afghan Commandos are allowed to join them. Ground forces have already been engaged in a three-hour exhaustive battle. Extortion 17's specially trained warriors drop into the Hot Landing Zone to help their fellow warriors. But there's a problem: the standard chopper escorts have all been directed elsewhere. Mission directions are unclear. Worse, pre-assault fire to cover the Chinook transporting our brave fighting men is not ordered. On that fateful night, Extortion 17 would never touch down. Taliban fighters fired three rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) in rapid succession. The first RPG shot below the Chinook, but the second made contact in what the military would later describe as a one-in-a-million shot. The shot struck a rotor blade on the aft (rear) pylon, shearing off ten and a half feet of the blade. The third shot flew above the falling chopper. Within a matter of seconds, the chopper begins to spin violently out of control and then drops vertically into a dry creek bed and is engulfed in a large fireball. There are no survivors. The thirty brave Americans lost that night were more than just warriors. They were husbands, fathers, brothers, and sons. Billy Vaughn's son, Aaron Carson Vaughn, was one of them. Over the next few months as unsettling information on the tragic incident is released to the families, Billy Vaughn becomes increasingly disturbed. Billy discovers that US military forces are not being led to win battles, but have been sent on a fool's errand to win the hearts and minds of other nations. He is told that the US Rules of Engagement have prevented our brave defenders from defending themselves. Adding insult to injury, Billy learned that a Muslim Imam was invited by our own US military leaders to pray over his son's dead body. As US war heroes lay in their caskets before their last flight home, the Imam damned America's fallen warriors as infidels who would burn in hell. As US military leaders observed the ceremony at Bagram Air Base, the Imam boasted over the deaths of US heroes with words such as, The companions of heaven Muslims] are the winners. Betrayed is a heart rending account in America's history, an engaging story of faith, patriotism, honor, duty and loss. Betrayed is not just the biography of an American military family, it is a crucial, true-life narrative that every American must read and understand about their government and the danger America's military strategy currently poses to all families. Betrayed is a book Billy Vaughn wishes he didn't have to write. But his son is gone and there are still unanswered questions. He needs to know if finding the truth may prevent another father from standing in his shoes.…

Hard Cover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. The author decries a strategy "that focuses more on preventing collateral damage at the risk of US lives. There is no greater example of the results of this approach to warfare than the tragedy of August 6, 2011. It occurred in the Wardak province of Afghanistan, where a US Chinook helicopter, call sign Extortion 17, was shot down in a Taliban ambush , killing thirty Americans, and seven Afghan National Army personnel and one interpreter. Fifteen of those killed were some of America's finest and most dedicated warriors from Seal Team Six . . . One of the Seals on Extortion 17 was Aaron Vaughn, the son of Karen and Billy Vaughn." The Vaughns investigated what happened and did not like what they found. On the tilele page, there are two insciptions. The one by the author is: "Eric, Thank you for reading Aaron's story B C V 12-10-15 Hosea 4:6" The other one expresses similar sentiments and, I believe (but am not absolutely sure), is signed by Karen Vaughn, prelims + 248 pages. Includes References and Notes. The book and the dust jacket have neither wear nor defects. Shortly after buying the book, installed an archival quality Brodart book jacket cover.

I was briefed on the classified details of the mission. .Having been a Combat Arms officer in the US Army for 22 years, I was disturbed at several instances where standard TTPs (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures) were not followed .Betrayed is a must read for those who wish to restore Clausewitz's trinity and ensure that future administrations and military leadership places the safety and well being of our warriors first and foremost." - Lieutenant Colonel Allen B. West, US Army (Ret.), Member of 112th Congress. "Extortion 17 provides a detailed account of a tragic incident involving the single largest loss of life of our elite special warriors which could have been avoided if proven war-fighting principles were adhered to. The book correctly points out how 'political correctness' by our military leadership directly contributed to this tragedy by needlessly exposing the lives of our military personnel in the failed hope of winning the 'hearts and minds' of a tribal society. Unconscionable!" - Admiral James A. "Ace" Lyons, Jr., US Navy (Ret.). "Elite Navy SEAL, Aaron Carson Vaughn, was killed August 6, 2011 when a Chinook chopper carrying 30 American troops was shot down in Afghanistan. Aaron had just celebrated his 30th birthday.

Aaron left behind a wife, a son, and daughter." - excerpt from the inner front jacket flap. Signed by Author(s). …
