INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
An edge-of-your-seat military memoir and true story about a group of retired Green Berets who come together to save a former comrade—and 500 other Afghans—targeted by the Taliban amid the chaos of America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.
In April 2021, a Special Forces operator deployed abroad sends an urgent plea: Get Nezam out of Afghanistan now. Nezam, one of the first Afghan National Army commandos trained alongside US Special Forces, is receiving threatening messages from the Taliban. His former commander, retired Lt. Col. Scott Mann, activates Task Force Pineapple, connecting with fellow special operations veterans and allies to plan a high-risk rescue mission.
Operating from basements and garages, the team orchestrates an escape route into Taliban-controlled Kabul, working around enemy checkpoints and surging crowds to get Nezam through Kabul airport safely. When calls flood in from other veterans, interpreters, and at-risk civilians, the mission expands—and Task Force Pineapple rescues 500 more Afghans in three turbulent days before the deadly ISIS-K suicide bombing. Operation Pineapple Express is a thrilling account of heroism, service, and loyalty in the final days of the War on Terror.
