The Outpost Review: Just Another Day in Afghanistan

I talk about one of the best war movies to come out in recent years, even if it flew under the radar a little bit. Still, it's amazing.

A couple of the people in my last unit were at COP Keating. One was a medic and the other other was a combat photographer. I don't believe either were at this specific battle, I know the combat photographer wasn't, and they described how hearing the radio broadcasts and sounds from the movie really took them back to some times they didn't want to remember. This COP, or Combat Outpost, is such a metaphor for our whole involvement in Afghanistan. A useless COP placed in the middle of a valley with no strategic advantage while soldiers risk life for ultimately nothing.

We are now getting two new ones this year alone with the upcoming Gerard Butler film Kandahar and The Covenant with Jake Gyllenhaal. I also recommend The Kite Runner (2007) & The Breadwinner (2017) for good stories on Afghanistan. Plus, films touching on the Soviet-Afghan War like Rambo 3 (1988), The Living Daylights (1987), and the vastly underrated The Beast (1988) have also become quite relevant again as a result of 2021.

My step father was apart of the 4th infantry division, and was supposed to be stationed in the valley, he had shot himself to get out of the army, mainly due to the fact he thought my mom was cheating on him, nevertheless a short month later the enital attack happened, SGT Knight took the place of my step father (SGT Olthoff) and the slow burning of events really shook him up, and really began to put him down the path of his split personality disorder. I lived on fort carson in colorado where the 4th infantry division is stationed, although I was very young, I ended up watching this movie with my mother about two years ago now, and I will never again, the amount of emotional connection my mother had to those people, and the way she pointed them out, was one of the most emotionally packed things I will ever experience, and to know I lived around these people for years was also something that hit me hard too. its one thing to see this from others, but I'll never forget the way my step fathers mental state deterinated in the next couple of years, leading my mom to divorce him, modern wars leave more people broken then dead, and it was really had to see.

I saw a netflix show called “medal of honour” and the show just shows certain medal of honour recipients and they try to recreate the certain events that occurred that got them their medal. And two episodes do show Clint Romesha and Ty Carter. The show has 8 episodes all from different wars each episode focusing on the individual. Sylvester Antolak running towards a German machine gun nest even after being shot I think two or three times, lost feeling in his right arm so he tucked his Thomson under his left armpit took out the nest, he also ran alone so his squad could also get up to the machine gun nest because they were getting ripped apart. Second is Clint Romesha at Keeting in Afghanistan. Third is Edward Carter who single handedly crippled a German stronghold in Germany. Hiroshi Miyamura who held off a wave of Chinese soldiers, ran out of ammunition for the two machine guns in his hole, used all his grenades then went berserk and charged into the Chinese wave that was charging him, he got into hand to hand and then American mortars started hitting because they thought he was dead and he ran behind enemy lines and was captured by the Chinese after being wounded from a grenade. Vito Bertoldo who haunted the german army in a town single handedly, german records show that there’s one guy holding a position which he held for a few days. Joseph Vittori who single handedly held a hill from the Chinese army, there were four machine gun nests and all were dead except for him and a wounded guy who couldn’t do anything really and he would run from one nest to the other holding the line. Richard Etchberger who exposed himself to enemy fire in order for his comrades to evacuate. Ty M. Carter also Keeting. The show is overall good because it talks about the past these guys had and endured to the moment of that event. I think mainly the reason why outpost was made was because two soldiers during the same battle and same day and time both received medal of honours which that doesn’t happen very often and I believe that’s the first that that has happened in United States history, I could be wrong but I’m Canadian, not Americano.

Nice review! Was hoping you'd mention the Latvian presence in the film- the guys who trained the Afghani soldiers at Keating that then fled. There's a funny moment in the movie where the Latvian instructor yells after them, asking why the Hell they're running away and not fighting for their country. Always stuck with me after watching this movie, because Latvian soldiers have a natural tendency to be extremely pissed about cowardice like that.

[@Paul-tg4xg]

The mere fact that they had a squad member who played himself accounted for some real factual shots of the firefight he witnessed first hand during deployment at camp Keating. It was the boldest re-enactment of what really went down that day. The actor who played Carter for me was outstanding, and given Carter was kept at arms length because his brothers and senior officers didn't trust him. The real Carter if depicted right proved to be both a mighty warrior and friend to the company. He deserved the M.O.H for the outstanding courage he displayed that day and the super human lengths he went to to get Mace to safety. I can fully appreciate how deeply it cut into him upon learning Mace didn't make it, as well as his brothers who fought to keep him alive. for that reason alone this is beyond doubt my favourate of all war movies, because it doesn't go off on a glorification tangent, They kept it true, and honoured those that fought and didn't make it.

[@madkabal]

the position of the outpost was tactically unsound because of the "ink dot" strategy that was implemented by General Petraeus. The idea was to set up accessible outposts. Not Tactically placed outposts. In other words, because it would have been too difficult for a local to make the trek up the mountains to order to air grievances to the American commander, the outpost was purposely placed where locals could travel to it easily. The strategy had some successes in Iraq, but it was a complete failure in Afghanistan. There is no reasoning with a barbarian.

@@jonathanramos8414 Foreigners ALWAYS leave A'stan. It doesn't make sense to work too hard fighting for them. In the end, the Tallywhackers will remain, and in all probability they'll hunt down and kill everyone who cooperated with the US and kill their families too.

Is Mosul on the list? If not where do I go to put it on?

Awesome video. Anyways, is the Generation Kill video still Age Restricted?

After watching this movie it felt like there was a majority of production making all the correct decisions and then just one influential guy trying to make a Bruckheimer flick

19:55 Never got released in theaters? Is that what u meant? Cause I saw it in my local cinema 🤔 (I may be wrong or misunderstood, correct me if so pls)

Watched this recently. Holy shit that entire ending was a gut punch.

I get the feeling that Ukraine is basically a proxy conflict at times too, just people taking advantage of the Russian advantage to test and sell weaponry.

[@nickmitsialis]

Are weapons actually being 'sold' to the Ukrainians, or are the weapons and ammo stocks from active duty units being sent? It seems like stocks of 'old' Warsaw Pact Era weapons are being sent-mostly.

The movie is amazing just like war machine is showcasing the reality. The war in Afghanistan was a giant waste of time and is what happens when people don't hold their government accountable.

Honestly, we probably should have wiped the elders out if we REALLY wanted to change the country. That and deploy another... million men hahaha. I'm kidding, it was a worthless war to begin with. Should have been a 6 month operation where we left a few bases inside just to make sure Al Qaeda didn't come back.

[@nickmitsialis]

And actual radio personality on my local station said it would have been cheaper (money and lives wise) to go in, 'f/k up the Taleb', kill the AQ and then just leave with the warning to not do it again; it would only cost a couple of hundred billion and a lot fewer lives; if you went back every five or ten years and did it again, it would still be less costly in lives or money than it turned out to be in the long run.

Afghan. They're called Afghans. Not afganis. Afghani is a currency.

If you go to the google maps location of the battle you can actually see the river and the bridge. There's also footage on youtube of the battle
