War Dogs True Story: How Much Of The Movie Was Real

2016’s War Dogs movie was based on real events, but the War Dogs true story was different than what appeared in the film. At the center of the film, the two real-life protagonists Efraim Diveroli (Jonah Hill) and David Packouz (Miles Teller), are low-level arms dealers who manage to win a contract with the Pentagon worth $300 million to arm American allies in Afghanistan. The premise alone makes it hard to believe that War Dogs is a true story, but while there are some embellishments, there is a lot of truth to this strange tale.
