Book Reviews of Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10

Book Review: "Good Ta Go" even for a "squid"...
Summary: 5 Stars

Never mind the title of my review. Just a little "dogging" from an old Marine grunt(1983-87). I found the book to be awesome and I usually only read non-fictions concerning the Marines in Vietnam. This book changed all of that . You can't put it down, once you've started.
At times, the author may seem to be a little overboard in his SEAL gung-ho's, but who am I to say that they don't brag a little too much. I was around a few Force Recon guys who never bragged, but I've never been around any SEAL (that I was aware of, that is...)

If the crowd that showed up at his parents home to support his family during his MIA status was as large as the author describes (which I did find to be a little hard to believe), then being a part of the SEAL brotherhood is something to be VERY proud of.

Once again, I found the book to be outstanding, and would recommend it to any veteran and non-veteran alike, no matter what branch of service.
