The Arghandab River Valley is known for its lush vegetation from its grape furrows and its pomegranate orchards. It's also known as the birthplace of several Taliban leaders such as Mullah Omar and Akhtar Mohammad Mansour, and was a major crossing route for weapons coming from Pakistan into Kandahar. This hostile environment had already claimed the lives of many seasoned infantrymen.

As the American government began a disastrous mass evacuation of its Afghan allies, a group of American veterans saw the writing on the wall—the people who had supported them on the ground over the past two decades were going to be left behind. Instead of watching on the sideline, they sprang into action.

Eine wahre Geschichte über Mut und Kameradschaft, Versagen und Verzweiflung, Triumph und Trauer. Das bekannteste und folgenreichste Gefecht in der Geschichte der Bundeswehr fand am Karfreitag, dem 2. April 2010 bei Kunduz statt. Deutsche Soldaten gerieten in einen Hinterhalt und kämpften mehr als acht Stunden gegen eine Überzahl von Taliban. Drei Soldaten fielen, fünf wurden verwundet, sechs afghanische Soldaten kamen durch »friendly fire« der Deutschen ums Leben. Zwei Tage später benutzte Verteidigungsminister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg zum ersten Mal die Worte "Krieg in Afghanistan".

This is an amazing story—and, by design, it is almost entirely unknown. As we begin to grapple with what the Afghan War meant—in books and in film AND in the ongoing governmental hearings regarding the evacuation—journalist and historian Paul Kix is setting out to write the book that begins to make sense of the war that was our country’s response to 9/11, the event that defined the lives of a generation.

This is a book of poetry as seen through the eyes of a deployed Soldier. It deals with the aspects of life that we face daily during a deployment.

Snapshots of one soldier’s time overseas in Afghanistan and Iraq, Time Cap fearlessly lets listeners peer inside the windows at both the light and dark sides of military service. Many passages are lifted straight from the author Nick Rucker’s journal, shedding light on his battle with alcoholism and his struggle to maintain relationships and readjust to a “normal” life upon returning to the States. Relatable to soldiers and to any who’ve had their lives turned suddenly upside-down, Rucker offers a message of hope: you can turn your life back around, no matter how far you think you’ve fallen.
