  When the Navy sends their elite, they send the SEALs. When the SEALs send their elite, they send SEAL Team Six
  SEAL Team Six is a secret unit tasked with counterterrorism, hostage rescue, and counterinsurgency. In this dramatic, behind-the-scenes chronicle, Howard Wasdin takes readers deep inside the world of Navy SEALS and Special Forces snipers, beginning with the grueling selection process of Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S)—the toughest and longest military training in the world.
  After graduating, Wasdin faced new challenges. First there was combat in Operation Desert Storm as a member of SEAL Team Two. Then the Green Course: the selection process to join the legendary SEAL Team Six, with a curriculum that included practiced land warfare to unarmed combat. More than learning how to pick a lock, they learned how to blow the door off its hinges. Finally as a member of SEAL Team Six he graduated from the most storied and challenging sniper program in the country: The Marine’s Scout Sniper School. Eventually, of the 18 snipers in SEAL Team Six, Wasdin became the best—which meant one of the best snipers on the planet.
  Less than half a year after sniper school, he was fighting for his life. The mission: capture or kill Somalian warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid. From rooftops, helicopters and alleys, Wasdin hunted Aidid and killed his men whenever possible. But everything went quickly to hell when his small band of soldiers found themselves fighting for their lives, cut off from help, and desperately trying to rescue downed comrades during a routine mission. The Battle of Mogadishu, as it become known, left 18 American soldiers dead and 73 wounded. Howard Wasdin had both of his legs nearly blown off while engaging the enemy. His dramatic combat tales combined with inside details of becoming one of the world’s deadliest snipers make this one of the most explosive military memoirs in years.

EmR    I am actually not surprised to see that this book got only 4 stars on Amazon and 3 1/2 on google.      I did not like this book. It related more to the author's arrogant attitude, and demeaning attitude toward others, that left me less interested in the book's contents. I understand that confidence and extraordinary skill is required to qualify as a Navy Seal. However, I didn't sense any humility, or gratitude in this book. This book doesn't even come close to the impact that Lone Survivor and Seal of Honor had on me.      Yet still, I have to recommend this book. I am appreciative of every soldier defending the United States of America. Bless all of you for the sacrifices you make, the battles you fight, and the professionalism you demonstrate to provide freedom for my family.  详情 发表于 2013-7-21 09:23
