Bragg, AndrewTHE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND: The Story of Two Charlie and The Arghandab River Valley Describes the fight for survival by the men of Charlie Company's 2nd Platoon, known as Two Charlie, in the Arghandab River Valley -- a.k.a. the Devil's Playground. The valley had been a notorious hot spot throughout history, with the Russians unable to maintain a foothold in the 80s and Coalition forces now facing the same problem during Operation Enduring Freedom. Discusses how they inherited a bare bones outpost that they worked hard to turn into the defendable position known as COP Tynes, while patrolling the grape fields and orchards of the valley. The fact that Two Charlie had to patrol, act as a quick reaction force, and secure their outpost on their own ensured that they never stopped. The men were constantly brought to their breaking point as their numbers dwindled and the fighting intensified.
