The 2012 Benghazi Attack on two isolated American diplomatic and intelligence compounds is a well-known story to millions of film-viewers across the world. In tonight’s show, a few Americans will battle for their lives against overwhelming odds. It’s a case study of static defense warfare in the modern setting: cut off and alone – hundreds of miles away from reinforcements, a few American security operators faced down hundreds of onrushing attackers. It’s thirteen hours of pain distilled into 70 minutes of podcast. It’s all here and it’s all free on Battlecast – the world’s foremost podcast on war and its sociopolitical impact.
