Typical Day of a Navy SEAL

Customer Rating:

The author decribes in detail what it takes to become a Navy SEAL and why that training paid off. He tells us how his buddies were killed and how he was badly wounded. The mission was the largest loss of SEALs in it's history. Eleven SEALs were killed by the Taliban on the same day. He makes me proud to be an American! He tells us about the media and how wrong they can be at times. The media reported him and his three buddies killed and his family heard it on the news. The Navy responded to his family quickly saying he is NOT dead until they find a body. If you like military history, this is the book to read. At times, this story was very emotional.

Good article condensed into a book	Customer Rating:
This book would have been a good article in a magazine but not a book. Mostly it is about SEAL training and the background of the author( heavily ghost written). Not to take anything away from the accounts of the men, but this just isn't substance for a book.

Hardest book I ever read

Customer Rating:

This book should be required reading for ALL politicans and reporters. I had to read this in complete privacy and solitude. I read each word at least 5 times to make sure I honored the hero's the author is telling about, including himself. I knew I could never become a SEAL so I chose another path, but I was fortunate to have served with a number of them.outside their community and this author is actually quite modest in his appraisal of them and their deeds. For any military personnel or former military personnel I can only say one thing, BUY AND READ IT , you will cry and swell with pride all at the same time. Thank You Sir for your service and writing this book.

A Great Read

Customer Rating:

This is a great book that's destined to become a classic. Marcus Luttrell's first person account of his experience in Afghanistan is riveting and thrilling. You won't be able to put it down. A real bonus is his willingness to explain the impact of liberal hand-wringing and incessant criticism of military personnel serving their country in dangerous places. It's not at all surprising to see reviews by liberals posing as military personnel just to attack Marcus Luttrell's experiences and viewpoints. Posing is, I suppose, what they do best. Buy the book, you will NOT be disappointed.

Great	Customer Rating:
This was a great book. I could hardly put it down. I hope more people will read this book and know what our solders are up against in this war on terrorism. Marcus and his men are real heroes.
