Riassunto:

INSIDE THE NAVYS TOUGHEST FIGHTING FORCE WITH A WARRIOR WHO WAS THERE

Known worldwide for their incredible combat skill, the Navy SEALs are one of the most elite sectors of the U.S. military. Now veteran SEAL Chief James Watson, who thrilled readers with his popular war memoir Point Man, presents more gripping stories of SEAL training and combat missions around the globe.

Alongside SEAL Team Two, Sixth Platoon, we watch soldiers perform treacherous diving missions, penetrate POW camps, arm a baby atom bomb, block seaborne supply routes, develop intelligence on enemy positions, and interrogate prisoners. From infiltrating a Viet Cong stronghold surrounded by land mines to recovering multimillion-dollar equipment lost in waters with near-zero visibility, SEALs have taken on the toughest and most dangerous jobs, in wartime and peacetime alike. Here, in language as straightforward and hard-edged as the Chief himself, is an insiders look into the heart of SEAL operations: how it feels to be among a group of warriors united by ironclad trust, heroic daring, and military strength in brilliant service to their country.
