In Afghanistan, Taliban leader Ahmad Shah is responsible for killing over twenty United States Marines. As part of the mission, a four-man SEAL reconnaissance and surveillance team is tasked with locating Shah. These four SEALs include team leader Michael P. "Murph" Murphy; snipers Marcus Luttrell and Matthew "Axe" Axelson; and communications specialist Danny Dietz. The team is inserted into Afghanistan but they have communications problems. They are accidentally discovered by an elderly shepherd and two teenage goat herders. The team decides to release the herders and abort the mission, but before they can escape, they are discovered by Taliban forces. Although they manage to kill several Taliban soldiers, they find themselves heavily outnumbered and at significant tactical disadvantage. Each of the men suffers serious injuries during the firefight, and

in an attempt to flee from the insurgents, they jump off the edge of a cliff. During an attempt to insert the arriving forces, the Taliban insurgents shoot down one of the helicopters sent to rescue them. The second helicopter is forced to turn back. Luttrell is discovered by a local Pashtun villager, Mohammad Gulab who takes him to his village, where he attempts to hide Luttrell in his home. Gulab then sends a man to the nearest American air base to alert military forces of Luttrell's location. The Taliban fighters arrive at the village to capture and kill Luttrell, but Gulab and the villagers defend them. Luttrell and Gulab are able to fend off several fighters during the ensuing attack. The remaining Taliban fighters are chased away by American forces, who arrive via helicopters and take Luttrell to safety.
