Recensione

“As a SEAL operator, I had the honor of serving with some of the best warriors and leaders in the United States military. Jay Redman’s humble and direct account of his journey . . . is remarkable. His life is the epitome of the ‘Never Quit’ spirit.” (Marcus Luttrell, New York Times bestselling author of Lone Survivor and Service)

“The Trident is a riveting, brutally honest and heartfelt story of a warrior’s journey to hell and back. It’s one of the best memoirs about love, combat and triumph against all odds that we’ve seen in a generation.” (Sean Parnell, New York Times bestselling author of Outlaw Platoon)

“[A] book all leaders and aspiring leaders should read; both military and civilian―not only for the heart-pounding ride-along into battle, but for the inspiring reminder that a warrior’s strength and tenacity comes not from his physical stature but from his family and from within.” (Eric Blehm, New York Times bestselling author of Fearless)

“This story is not just about a SEAL on the Iraqi battlefield, but a SEAL at war with himself, and his ultimate victory. [Redman’s] story will inspire the reader, just as it did me.” (Robert M. Gates, former Secretary of Defense, from his Introduction)

“Lt. Redman doesn’t hide anything . . . Only an intensely personal account like this can show us what he and thousands of others like him have gone though, and will continue to struggle with, for the rest of their lives.” (Larry Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Exit Plan)

“The Trident is a frank, compelling and inspiring chronicle of an American warrior’s journey.” (Washington Times)

He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with Valor, the Purple Heart, the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, the Navy Commendation Medal, the Joint Service Achievement Medal, five Navy Achievement Medals, and two Combat Action Ribbons. After being severely wounded in Iraq in 2007, Redman returned to active duty before ultimately retiring in 2013.

He lives with his family in Virginia.
