CWT USMA Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Thanks for the book tip. First half a little slow but fill of info about BUDs training. But as stated once the book takes off you will not want to put it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronEqualizer Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 +++1Loved it and am passing it around. Mark K I read this last month. I wish you would have passed it my way. I gave my copy to a friend I went to school with after we spent a day shooting and catching up. It was a very good book. AL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I bought it about a week ago but haven't had a chance to start it, yet. This is worth watching, too. http://www.2ablogbash.com/2008/05/17/marcu...he-nra-meeting/ Hopefully it doesn't come off as being too political for Brian's forum.

PHolsted Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 This guy is True American and a Texan! People like him and his brothers on the front line keep it real. When I got this book I could not put it down. I read it non stop. I need to read it again and then pass it to me friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psyops Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 God Bless the Navy SEALs and every man and woman who wears a uniform. Lone Survivor is outstanding! I gave my liberal Dad a copy for Christmas. This book is a must read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldrin Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 It's an outstanding book. He's also had some tough times since he's been back...ongoing health problems, some losers shooting his dog. This guy deserves better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred fague Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I read Lone Survivor twice about a year ago. I loaned it to my son and bought another and loaned it to my son in law, he kept it and bought me a hard cover edition. It is sad to read about the deaths of his team mates and those trying to rescue him. I recommended Lone Survivor to co-workers and others. I see those same poeple later and they tell me they read the book and passed it on to friends. The looks on thier faces when decribing it is very rewarding. I will continue tell others they should to read it. Lone Survivor is worth reading over and over, it is also very inspiring. To read about his parents and how many came to support them is beautiful.

xcelr8n Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I downloaded it from audible.com and listened to it while commuting to/from work. It's an excellent book that helps Americans see a little of what it takes to become and serve as a Seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glocklover Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I though it was a little slow the first few chapters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokshwn Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Great story, however the I could have done with only about a 1/3 of the Rah Rah Seals stuff. I get that it is amazingly selective and difficult, but it did not need to be mentioned in every other paragraph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsniper Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 This was one of the most gripping stories I have ever read. If I have ever teared up from reading a book, I don't remember it. But when the guy went out and sat on the stump to get clear radio transmissions it was heart wrenching. I have recommended this book to soooo many people. Thank God we have young people that can carry on such a tradition of excellence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
