Lone Survivor by: Marcus Luttrell


"These men of the Special Forces have had other options in their lives, other paths, easier paths they could have taken. But they took the hardest path, that narrow causeway that is not for the sunshine patriot. They took the one for the supreme patriot, the one that may require them to lay down their lives for the United States of America. The one that is suitable only for those who want to serve their country so bad, nothing else matters…” Marcus Luttrell is the best of the best, the cream of the crop… he is a United States Navy Seal. In Lone Survivor the author Marcus Luttrell narrates his life from the time her joined the Navy. The readers will feel the freezing cold winter waters of the Navy Seal training camp in Coronado California, as Marcus describes the hardships recruits go through just to be admitted into training. The readers then follow Marcus to Afghanistan and will not be able to stop reading as he faces a decision that could cost him his life. This book is a amazing page turner, and has nonstop action from the start. Readers that enjoy a good non-fiction war story with hair-raising excitement will love this book. Lone survivor gives the best in detail account of the life of the covert Navy Seals.

  2. The things the SEALs have to go through in training is just so brutal it makes the marines look like weak little pansies!
