Operation Pineapple Express

Book • 2023
Operation Pineapple Express tells the story of a group of retired U.S.

Special Forces veterans who came together to rescue Afghan allies, including Nezamuddin Nezami, an Afghan commando who had served alongside them.

The mission, led by retired Lt. Col. Scott Mann, involved organizing an escape route for Nezam and eventually rescuing over 500 Afghans from Taliban-controlled Kabul before the ISIS-K suicide bombing at the airport.
