Book Description
Shortly after deploying for the war in Iraq, an unprecedented attack was about to take place; the first of it’s kind in U.S. military history. Embedded Enemy is the true story of the deadly attack against the men and women of Headquarters and Headquarters Company First Brigade, 101st Airborne Division. The Bastogne Brigade was staged at Camp Pennsylvania in Kuwait where they prepared for combat. During the early morning hours of 23 March 2003, a fellow American soldier, Sergeant Hasan Akbar, executed the unthinkable by throwing hand grenades into his Chain of Command’s tents. He then followed up with small-arms fire while his Commanding Officers slept in preparation for war.
