Honor And Betrayal : The Untold Story Of The Navy Seals Who Captured The "Butcher Of Fallujah"-and The Shameful Ordeal They Later Endured (9780306823091) - Plot & Excerpts
... The bombs of August sent a tremble of new determination through Camp Schwedler. SEAL Team 10, already on red alert after Tyler Trahan’s death, was now up and ready to go at even the sound of high explosive over the wall at the old Marine base. And there were plenty of those sounds. Camp Baharia, now closed after the US troop withdrawal, was a constant target for any demented Islamist going for a place over the bridge, where the sound of trumpets would herald the arrival of his personal virgins. The departed Marines, out beyond the walls of the SEAL compound, used to be expert at avoiding these weekly outbursts of senseless violence, and they conducted dozens of patrols around their sprawling base. It kept Camp Schwedler out of trouble. But with the Marines gone, the SEALs needed to be doubly vigilant for potential attacks on them. And still there remained one golden target—Ahmad Hashim Abd Al-Isawi. And the SEALs’ senior command believed that if they could grab this al-Qaeda killer, everything would calm down, and the danger of being blown up would be lessened for everyone.
