Garden City, KS (westernkansasnews.com) Their story is in a new book and later this week will be told to a new audience. Friday “13 Hours” will premiere in movie theaters across the country detailing what happened September 11, 2012 when a group of army rangers were told to stand down as the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya was attacked. A couple of months ago, Chris Paronto spoke to a large group of students at Garden City Community College.

Four people died that night including Ambassador Chris Stevens. Paronto and his three buddies felt the victim’s families deserved to know the truth.
