Summary
On the night of September 11, 2012, terrorists attacked the US State Department Special Mission Compound and a nearby CIA station called the Annex in Benghazi, Libya. A team of six American security operators fought to repel the attackers and protect the Americans stationed there. Those men--Mark "Oz" Geist, Kris "Tanto" Paronto, John "Tig" Tiegen, Jack Silva, Dave "D.B." Benton, and Tyrone "Rone" Woods--went beyond the call of duty, performing extraordinary acts of courage and heroism, to avert tragedy on a much larger scale. This is their personal account, never before told, of what happened during the thirteen hours of that now infamous attack. When the diplomatic Compound was overrun, the operators were initially told to stand down, but the team went into action regardless. Fighting to save lives while the Compound buildings were set ablaze and choking smoke reduced visibility to zero, they succeeded in retaking the Compound and then escaping to the relative safety of the nearby Annex. But more deadly attacks followed, involving grenades, mortars, and wave after wave of machine-gun fire. Stationed on the rooftops of the Annex, the team fought through the night to repel mounting enemy forces and firepower. Four Americans would not make it out alive, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
