William Yeske, a Harford county resident and Army combat veteran, will be joined in conversation by fellow veterans about his acclaimed work: Damn the Valley: 1st Platoon, Bravo Company, 2/508 PIR, 82nd Airborne in the Arghandab River Valley Afghanistan. "Damn the valley!” was a phrase regularly uttered by the men that spent any amount of time in the Arghandab River Valley during the deployment of 2 Fury to Afghanistan in 2009–2010. Operating in the valley was like nothing the men could have envisaged, they called it the “meat grinder.” Purchase Damn the Valley from your favorite bookseller and bring it along for the author to sign. Registration is recommended but not required.
