Fearless: The Undaunted Courage and Ultimate Sacrifice of Navy SEAL Team SIX Operator Adam Brown.
Outlaw Platoon: Heroes, Renegades, Infidels, and the Brotherhood of War in Afghanistan

Just finished both of these outstanding books and wanted to highlight them. The story of Adam Brown is one of the most inspirational stories I have ever read. Brown grew up an all-American kid who made some wrong turns and ended up a crack user. Utilizing some family connections allowed Brown to acquire waivers and join the Navy. After becoming a SEAL, Brown lost his dominant eye to simunition in training exercise. He taught himself to shoot using his non-dominant eye. Next, Brown's fingers on his right hand (his shooting hand) were smashed off in an vehicle accident. He had them sewn back on and taught himself to shoot left-handed. Both of these happened before Brown A) passed Navy Warfare Sniper school and B) passed training for and joined SEAL Team SIX. It is a remarkable story and I hope Brown's story will be read and appreciated by others.

The second title, Outlaw Platoon, is a much grittier look at the war in Afghanistan. It's a first-hand account of the ground war and it reveals a lot of the politics that happen in FOBs and the frustration that grows out of it. It also highlights the bond that men who go to war share with one another.

If you don't like to read, the NRA Life of Duty site has video stories of both of these. I highly recommend them. http://nralifeofduty.tv/patriot-prof...files-military
