A poster for the upcoming Afghanistan War movie “12 Strong” was recently released, and it’s got everything we love about the military on it.

The plot of the film, according to IMDB, is, “12 Strong tells the story of the first Special Forces team deployed to Afghanistan after 9/11; under the leadership of a new captain, the team must work with an Afghani warlord to take down the Taliban.”

The poster shows four of the American soldiers, with three on horseback. There’s also a Chinook transport helicopter in the background and explosions going off.

I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for a war movie. Everything we’ve seen so far has been downright incredible, which isn’t surprising seeing as how it’s based off an insane true story.

American soldiers slinging rounds from M4s at the Taliban is going to make for some great entertainment. Add in the true story angle and I think we have a hit on our hands.

“12 Strong” will hit theaters January 19.
