Alison Spann Age/ Birthday
Alison Spann was born on 15th May 1994 which makes her 27 years old as of now. She has achieved quite a lot at such a young age and the only way she can go from here is forward.
Alison Spann Family
Alison was born in Winfield, Alabama to Johnny Michael Spann who was a soldier. She was raised along with her sister Emily Spann. Her father died in the line of duty while Alison was only 9 years old. She criticized the movie 12 strong for it not truly representing the truth.
As some of you know, my father was the first American killed in Afghanistan following the September 11th, 2001 attacks. He was a member of the CIA’s Alpha Team. They were the first team inside Afghanistan. That is why the movie #12strong is so offensive to my family.
This movie falsely depicts the 12 man special forces team as the first inside Afghanistan and gives zero credit to the CIA officers who also risked their lives to achieve what the US did in Afghanistan.
Below is an explanation from a fellow journalist who extensively covered Afganistan and the men who fought there. My family is the “family” mentioned in the post and that is my step-mother, Shannon Spann, at my father’s grave in Arlington National Cemetery.
In the interest of seeking and spreading the truth, I felt compelled to share the falsehoods this Hollywood film portrays.
Alison is very close to her grandfather Johnny Spann who is a real estate agent in Alabama.
