It didn't take me long to finish this amazing story by Marcus Luttrell.
I had heard about this book when it was originally published in 2007
but was hesitant to read it because my best friend's cousin
was one of the unfortunate men who lost their life during Operation Redwing.
It was obviously a devastating loss for her and her family
and it seemed horribly insensitive to pore over a book recounting her tragedy.
Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago...
The book club I recently joined was currently reading Lone Survivor.
I struggled to "get into it" at first but I swear after the third chapter
I could not be seen without my KindleFire open to this book.
The writing is not incredible but the story truly is.
After reading this book, I have so much more respect for the men and women who serve our country.
Even more, I have the utmost respect for our Navy Seals.
This is a great read before the 4th because you will walk away
proud to be an American.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
