Marine Lieutenant Luke Stonekiller is a Native American Sioux who commands a platoon of twenty-four men from NATO countries whose charter is as a covert terrorist assault force. The Lieutenantas name was given to him by his Sioux playmates for his uncanny ability to hit anything within a stoneas throw. The platoon gets its orders from a committee consisting of those NATO countries and they are authorized to sanction any identified terrorist objective. They are inserted into the proximity of their targets by a much modified V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft. Join the platoon as it commences to eliminate, with prejudice, terrorist strongholds! Meanwhile, a Saudi Arabian flagged freighter takes on a cargo of seven clandestine nuclear devices in the Iranian port of Bushehr. The platoon goes through several days of specialized, intense training for the interdiction of the freighter. The action-packed account ends with the destruction of the Al-Qaeda complex in Afghanistan at Tora Bora. They embark from Bagram Air Force Base and are assisted in denying Al-Qaeda the complex with the aid of Apache helicopters and A-10 Warthogs, rendering it useless forever!
