Summary
Betrayed tells the story of the August 6, 2011 helicopter crash in Afghanistan that killed 38 people, including 17 Navy SEALs from SEAL Team Six. Written by Billy Vaughn, father of one of the fallen SEALs, the book examines the circumstances surrounding the deadliest day in Naval Special Warfare history. Vaughn questions the military's rules of engagement, investigates potential security breaches, and challenges the official narrative of what happened to Extortion 17. The book combines a father's grief with his pursuit of answers about his son's death and accountability from military leadership.
