A survivor of \u201cthe other 9\/11\u201d who defended a US embassy against a 100-man wave of terrorists recalled how a "badass chef" fought back.<\/p>\n

Mark "Oz" Geist was one of six CIA contractors tasked with protecting J. Christopher Stevens, the US ambassador to Libya in 2012, when the Benghazi embassy came under attack.<\/p>\n

He suffered over 22 blast injuries in the coordinated attack by Islamic militant group Ansar al-Sharia, which took place exactly 11 years after the 9\/11 terrorist attacks.<\/p>\n

The highly-trained specialists were supported by a small number of embassy staff, including the facility's chef, Mark told podcaster Shawn Ryan.<\/p>\n

He recalled: \u201cOur Chef was was a badass \u2026 I mean he grew up as a freaking gangster on the streets and first thing that he did was grab a shotgun said \u2018Go ahead and let them come in here\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The bloody engagement, which cost the lives of US foreign service officer Sean Smith and CIA contractors Tyrone S. Woods and Glen Doherty as well as that of Ambassador Stevens, lasted 13 hours.<\/p>\n

Mark described in detail how the attack began to unfold while he was out at dinner with a colleague.<\/p>\n

\u201cI'm keeping my composure because I don't want to be driving fast I don't want to make myself a target and I knew so we had to drive West down the coast cut back in and come back a little bit through the desert and come back in to the consulate or to the annex,\u201d he recalled.<\/p>\n

But while they were on their way back, they encountered a Libyan militia roadblock.<\/p>\n
