Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. In 2003, Army Cavalry Officer, 2nd Lieutenant Ross Berkoff, led his Scout Platoon from the 10th Mountain Division on more than 10,000 miles of reconnaissance missions over a nine-month period across the dangerous southern provinces of Kandahar and Helmand-the birthplace of the Taliban. After h…is transition to Military Intelligence, Captain Berkoff returned to Afghanistan in 2006, once again assigned to the 10th Mountain Division's Light Cavalry. This time, the Taliban insurgency had escalated in sophistication, with deadly effectiveness. Beyond the Outpost: An Army Cavalry Officer's War Diary on the Frontlines of Afghanistan, 2003 2007 is the first and only raw daily chronicle from the perspective of a junior officer covering this delicate and hostile early period of the U.S. Army's 20-year campaign against the Taliban. During the two-year period following September 11th, 2001, Taliban and Al Qaeda strongholds in Afghanistan were largely deserted. Months of intense U.S. Special Forces raids and bombing campaigns were successful at dislodging and disorganizing large swaths of enemy combatants. When the first deployments of U.S. Army Brigade Combat Teams entered Afghanistan, however, enemy tactics and momentum began to shift and intensify. Lieutenant Berkoff's deployment in 2003 was Operation Enduring Freedom's first use of Light Cavalry forces on the modern battlefield. His second deployment in 2006 supported the pursuit by U.S. intelligence agencies of Osama Bin Laden in the mountainous border region near Pakistan. Berkoff's diary-raw and unscripted-carries us along the bumpy ride as Army operations roil in its counter-insurgency mission designed to destroy pockets of extremists and separate them from the beleaguered Afghan people. A large portion of Jake Tapper's national bestseller The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor is solely dedicated to this 2006-2007 deployment. Beyond the Outpost records the early years of America's Afghanistan Conflict. Berkoff's firsthand day-to-day account of the 10th Mountain Division's campaigning and combat across the sand dunes of Kandahar and over the mountains of the rugged Hindu Kush offers unique clarity and detail of the common soldier's perspective, the evolution of tactics of the Taliban insurgency, and how the U.S. Army Cavalry fought to defeat it. In the aftermath of the bungled 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan, many combat veterans are gripped with profound questions about the meaning and the legacy of their service. Berkoff's stories of courage, sacrifice, adaptability, resilience, and leadership, enhanced with original maps, illustrations, and previously unpublished photographs, help carry the weight of the collective experiences of our Afghanistan veterans. AUTHOR: Ross Berkoff served on active duty as an Armor and Military Intelligence officer from 2002 to 2009. After his time in the 10th Mountain Division, Ross served in the District of Columbia Army National Guard before transitioning to the private sector in 2007 to begin a second career as an industry leader in the government contracting defense and intelligence communities. Ross's two combat deployments earned him two Bronze Stars, two Army Commendation Medals, and two Afghanistan Campaign Ribbons. He's most proud of 3-71 Cavalry's Meritorious Unit Commendation for waging highly successful counterinsurgency operations against determined opponents in the most austere and rugged conditions in the world. Ross and his wife Rebekah reside in Chantilly, Virginia, where they are raising two incredible children, Eliana and Aaron. 12 images, 6 maps In 2003, Army Cavalry Officer, 2nd Lieutenant Ross Berkoff, led his Scout Platoon from the 10th Mountain Division on more than 10,000 miles of reconnaissance missions over a nine-month period across the dangerous southern provinces of Kandahar and Helmand--the bir Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

When the first deployments of U.S. Army Brigade Combat Teams entered Afghanistan, however, enemy tactics and momentum began to shift and intensify.Lieutenant Berkoff's deployment in 2003 was Operation Enduring Freedom's first use of Light Cavalry forces on the modern battlefield. His second deployment in 2006 supported the pursuit by U.S. intelligence agencies of Osama Bin Laden in the mountainous border region near Pakistan. Berkoff's diary-raw and unscripted-carries us along the bumpy ride as Army operations roil in its counter-insurgency mission designed to destroy pockets of extremists and separate them from the beleaguered Afghan people. A large portion of Jake Tapper's national bestseller The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor is solely dedicated to this 2006-2007 deployment.Beyond the Outpost records the early years of America's Afghanistan Conflict. Berkoff's firsthand day-to-day account of the 10th Mountain Division's campaigning and combat across the sand dunes of Kandahar and over the mountains of the rugged Hindu Kush offers unique clarity and detail of the common soldier's perspective, the evolution of tactics of the Taliban insurgency, and how the U.S. Army Cavalry fought to defeat it.In the aftermath of the bungled 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan, many combat veterans are gripped with profound questions about the meaning and the legacy of their service. Berkoff's stories of courage, sacrifice, adaptability, resilience, and leadership, enhanced with original maps, illustrations, and previously unpublished photographs, help carry the weight of the collective experiences of our Afghanistan veterans.
