Question, never asked

Revisado: 04-05-24

If you listen to the book, you’ll understand the title. Wonderful and compelling information. The narrator voice on the other hand was very radio like.

Not captivating

Revisado: 10-17-23

I’ve listened to 3 chapters so far. The narrator is very monotone, like he should be reading a old historic book about Theodore Roosevelt or someone building some sort of business empire. I really try to stay away from books that aren’t read by the author and this book is a prime example. I’m going to try and return this book and get something else.

Amazing

Revisado: 12-02-22

Listening to this story you can’t help but be pulled into the unbelievable story and temperament of Cairo. Deep down inside, you know the end result of the story as Will Chesney states in this book. It doesn’t ease any of the emotions such as happiness, laughter, and sadness of an amazing military working dog and his handlers life are brought to light for the average American citizen.

Thank you for your service Cairo, Will, and every service member four legged or not…..

Own your life’s story

Revisado: 07-30-22

I loved the story line. The complete story line, from childhood stories to successes, failures, change and the life lessons learned each step of the way. This book is happy, sad, chilling, frustrating, courageous all packed into one. Many autobiographies can be self fulfilling, but this isn’t. It’s about owning your short coming’s and moving on too be better.

Horrible

Revisado: 11-14-21

I could not finish the book. The message is the same for many other books just like it the cadence of the reader is not normal and almost sounds condescending.

Southern draw

Revisado: 01-08-21

I just couldn’t listen and get over the what seemed to be the super exaggerated southern draw. Lone survivor was great, this is why I tried the second book by Marcus Latrell. I’m starting to like books that are actually read by the authors over books that are read by someone else. They just seem to be more genuine. To be completely honest I got about 30 minutes into the book, I tried to push past the narrators draw.

Fast read /listen

Revisado: 12-12-20

I listened to this book in 2, 2 hour chunks. Listening to Justin tell his story was riveting. It was like listening to a family member tell this story around a camp fire. The pace, cadence, and story line was refreshing from most other books.
This is the second book that has mentioned electric brain therapy and how well it works for TBI and PTS. Thank you to all who have served. I hope everyone that needs help gets help, including the wives who stay at home and and raise their families.

Great eye opening book.

Revisado: 12-01-20

This book starts out hard and fast. Filled with military deployment story after story. It’s interesting to hear about how the elite tier 1 operators train around the world. It sprinkles in some talk about PTS but then right back to an exciting story... then it kicks you in the chest as hard as ever. Talking about how PTS affects our warriors and their fight against invisible scars, drinking, drugs, and suicide. To every veteran out there, thank you for your service and dedication. To their wives and significant others I never thought about your trauma and for that I’m sorry for not thinking about the other half that’s has to deal with the grief as well. Thank you as well!!

Believing in what you do for all

What an incredible story. It is sad, happy, joyful, tragic. It is crazy that this story has so much more to it that we will never know.

Truly inspiring

Revisado: 11-13-18

There are s lot of good books out there, but one of this caliber is hard to find. I also enjoy it so much more because the authors are the narrators. I can apply every chapter and concept to my job. (Firefighter/Paramedic). I have leaders of every type mentioned in this book. I will try with this books help to be a great leader in my organization.
