Description

In its earnest firsthand telling, Grant McGarry’s A Night in the Pech Valley reveals the character and courage, and dedication and determination, of our elite Army Rangers. McGarry gives us an unvarnished and authentic glimpse of turning into a soldier and serving under fire. He shows the old rallying cry “Rangers paved the way” still rings true. The story also reminds us how many veterans carry home the burdens of war; some, like Chris Wright, never return. As a nation, we are fortunate that such men volunteer to give protection to our ideals; we will have to not omit them. Grant McGarry’s book helps make sure we won’t.” —Alvin Townley, best-selling creator of Legacy of Honor and Defiant… Grant McGarry has given us a real-time, ground-truth look at the work of the 75th Ranger Regiment in Afghanistan–probably the most toughest fighting in the War of Terror. Authentic modern Combat–the real thing told by one who has been there and done that.” —Dick Couch, creator of The Warrior Elite and Chosen Soldier… A Night in the Pech Valley is Grant’s memoir of what it takes to turn out to be an Army Ranger and what life is like in the 75th Ranger Regiment. More importantly it is about an operation on the night of August 18, 2010 in the most dangerous terrain for U.S. forces anywhere on this planet, the Pech Valley. On this specific night a platoon of Army Rangers were on an instantaneous action mission and this is the story of the Rangers who ferociously fought through the night and into the next morning. Furthermore, A Night in the Pech Valley is dedicated to US Army Ranger SPC. Christopher Shane Wright, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the Pech Valley on the morning of August 19th, 2010.
