Romesha was one of the people profiled in Netflix's "Medal of Honor" series, each episode told the story of the person's background and circumstances leading up to the award.

IIRC correctly in the episode when he was assigned there he was thinking it was SOP for military forces to take the high ground and here they were building a base at the bottom of the mountains where the Taliban could look down into the outpost from all sides.

It's available to rent from Fandango or Amazon Prime, definitely going to give this one a watch.


Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
