The war film The Outpost is based on the best-selling The New York Times book "The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor" written by CNN's Jake Tapper, which is based on a true story.

A small military unit of 54 U.S. Soldiers are stationed alone in this deserted camp, Combat Outpost Keating. Keating is located at the bottom of a valley between three mountain peaks in Afghanistan. Here they must finally defend themselves against a huge army of over 400 Taliban fighters attacking with full force. The Battle of Kamdesh is known as the bloodiest battle during the war in Afghanistan.
