On his last combat deployment, Lt. Cmdr. James Reece's entire team was killed in an ambush that also claimed the lives of the aircrew sent in to rescue them. But when those dearest to him are murdered on the day of his homecoming, Reece discovers that this was not an act of war by a foreign enemy but a conspiracy that runs to the highest levels of government. Now, with no family and free from the military's command structure, Reece applies the lessons that he's learned in over a decade of constant warfare toward revenge.

Even though predictable the adventure was full of payback…navy seal style. James Reese my hero
Revisado: 11-20-24
Somewhat predicable and cliche. There are other “Navy Seal” testosterone packed books on the scene but Jack Carr does a great job bringing it to the bad guys by a badass.

If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves - and the world - for the better.

Admiral McRaven hits deep in the soul with the wisdom he earned in training and leading our military. I am grateful he decided to share this. I will study this frequently to help me personally and professionally.

From Brandon Webb, Navy SEAL sniper and New York Times best-selling author, comes his account of the eight friends and fellow SEALs who made the ultimate sacrifice. As a Navy SEAL, Webb rose to the top of the world's most elite sniper corps, experiencing years of punishing training and combat missions from the Persian Gulf to Afghanistan. Along the way, Webb served beside, trained, and supported men he came to know not just as fellow warriors, but as friends and, eventually, as heroes.

Good book and does a great job honoring our fallen heroes
Revisado: 07-13-15
The reasons I gave this book lower ratings is because I had just read the Red Circle by Brandon Webb and had heard most of these stories in that book and also some other great SPEC Ops authors. So it was a little redundant but the stories were still great and hit the mark for its intended purpose. I am a fan. I am also inspired to give to the Red Circle Foundation as well as other worthy and reputable non profits that care for our heroes and their families. To the authors point make sure you study where your money goes.

Brandon Webb's experiences in the world's most elite sniper corps are the stuff of legend. From his grueling years of training in Naval Special Operations to his combat tours in the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan, The Red Circle provides a rare and riveting look at the inner workings of the U.S. military through the eyes of a covert operations specialist. Yet it is Webb's distinguished second career as a lead instructor for the shadowy "sniper cell" that makes his story so compelling.

On June 13, 1966, men of the 1st Recon Battalion, 1st Marine Division were stationed on Hill 488. Before the week was over, they would fight the battle that would make them the most highly decorated small unit in the entire history of the US military, winning a Congressional Medal of Honor, four Navy Crosses, 13 Silver Stars, and 18 Purple Hearts - some of them posthumously.

An incredible story of survival in Vietnam
Revisado: 07-03-15
Narrator Jonathon Yen does a great job making you feel like it's all happening right around you. The details that the authors provide make this book a little different from some of the other "Nam" books I have read. If you like hot action and triumphant victory then this book is for you. May God bless America and the service men and women who sacrifice themselves to provide our freedom.

In Legend, acclaimed best-selling author Eric Blehm takes as his canvas the Vietnam War as seen through a single mission that occurred on May 2, 1968. A 12-man Special Forces team had been covertly inserted into a small clearing in the jungles of neutral Cambodia - where US forces were forbidden to operate. Their objective, just miles over the Vietnam border, was to collect evidence that proved the North Vietnamese Army was using the Cambodian sanctuary as a major conduit for supplying troops and materiel to the south via the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

Blehm does an excellent job and must have worked very hard to discover all of the buried information to put this story together. I enjoyed it thoroughly and highly recommend this book!

A Yale graduate who volunteered to serve his country, Larry Gwin was only 23 years old when he arrived in Vietnam in 1965. After a brief stint in the Delta, Gwin was reassigned to the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) in An Khe. There, in the hotly contested Central Highlands, he served almost nine months as executive officer for Alpha Company, 2/7, fighting against crack NVA troops in some of the war's most horrific battles.

Interesting story of hardcore fighting Vietnam style
Revisado: 06-24-15
I enjoy the narrator Todd McLaren which is why I bought this book. The events as written by the author were interesting but the storyline not as entertaining as Good To Go also narrated by Todd. This book was more historical of the accounts of the author based on his recollection of his time in Vietnam as an officer. It's good book worth reading but not my favorite.

Southern Afghanistan was slipping away. That was clear to then-Captain Rusty Bradley as he began his third tour of duty there in 2006. The Taliban and their allies were infiltrating everywhere, poised to reclaim Kandahar Province, their strategically vital onetime capital. To stop them, the NATO coalition launched Operation Medusa, the largest offensive in its history. The battlefield was the Panjwayi Valley, a densely packed warren of walled compounds that doubled neatly as enemy bunkers.

When Navy SEAL Adam Brown woke up on March 17, 2010, he didn’t know he would die that night in the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan - but he was ready: In a letter to his children, not meant to be seen unless the worst happened, he wrote, "I’m not afraid of anything that might happen to me on this earth, because I know no matter what, nothing can take my spirit from me."

Revisado: 03-19-15
This book spoke to me on so many different levels. It was relational in that I could place a number of my family members and myself in parts of the life journey that was Adam Brown. The author did a wonderful job of illustrating and representing the life of a true American hero, Adam Brown. I pray that God will mold me to the husband and father that Adam was. I look forward to meeting him one day in Heaven. I highly recommend this book to everyone. I am changed by it.

Snipers work in pairs so relationship and trust are all important. Snipers are elite soldiers and clearly the author is among the best of the best. A Sniper's Conflict is a superb account of professional soldiering at the sharp end....

If you enjoy the real deal and learning how a sniper in any war, but especially Afghanistan, goes about his job then this book is for you. Monty tells it the way it was through his eyes and his mind in such a way that I was drawn into the action and could see what he saw. I enjoyed immensely and will likely read again and again.
