The Book of the Month for March is Warrior Soul : The Memoir of a Navy SEAL

Description

“Since the first navy frogmen crawled onto the beaches of Normandy, no SEAL has ever surrendered,” writes Chuck Pfarrer. “No SEAL has ever been captured, and not one teammate or body has ever been left in the field. This legacy of valor is unmatched in modern warfare.”

Warrior Soul is a book about the warrior spirit, and it takes the reader all over the world. Former Navy SEAL Chuck Pfarrer recounts some of his most dangerous assignments: On a clandestine reconnaissance mission on the Mosquito Coast, his recon team plays a deadly game of cat and mouse with a Nicaraguan patrol boat. Cut off on the streets of Beirut, the author’s SEAL detachment must battle snipers on the Green Line. In the mid-Atlantic, Pfarrer’s unit attempts to retrieve—or destroy—the booster section of a Trident ballistic missile before it can be recovered by a Russian spy trawler. On a runway in Sicily, his assault element surrounds an Egyptian airliner carrying the Achille Lauro hijackers.

These are only a few of the riveting stories of combat patrol, reconnaissance missions, counter-terrorist operations, tragedies, and victories in Warrior Soul that illustrate the SEAL maxim “The person who will not be defeated cannot be defeated.”

I agree, excellent book. Great read on actual SEAL missions and very motivating. Before buying the book, I'd read a bit about the author, and found out that he lives in a city near me. I would really like to find a way to get ahold of him and ask him about his experiences in the Teams and his book, and if possible meet him.

WARNING-MIGHT SPOIL THE STORY

I read it few months ago when it first came out. Good read, provided some 3rd party opinion to Marcinko/Gromly story and give reader an inkling of how hard it is to be a JEDI.
Also, it's also interesting to know how the training was different back then. STT versus the SQT these days. It's interesting to read about their particiaption in Robin Sage, does that still happen today? Student SEALs going against student SFs?
Sorry to hear what happened to him at the end of the book and glad he came out ok.
Not sure if it is mentioned in the book, but he did act in Charle Sheen's NAVY SEAL. He's the guy giving breifing at the begining.

GOOD READ. Motivating.

Just finished this book about one month ago, and I couldn't put it down. The stories Mr. Pfarrer tells about his expieriences in Beruit (including the bombing of the marine barracks there) were especially riveting. I also rented Charlie Sheen's Navy SEALS right after finishing the book because Mr. Pfarrer was one of the movie's screenwriters. Very good read, hopefully Mr. Pfarrer will write more like it.
