No Easy Day


This book was downright good. I knew of this book as the Bin Laden book, but man was this so much more. This book follows "Mark Owen" throughout his career as a Navy Seal. It shows his entry into DEVGRU the elite Seal unit trusted with only the most important missions. It was really interesting to hear about his training and what he struggled with. What it was like in the new unit. How important it was to him. It also takes you from mission to mission that he performed over his time as a seal, including the Captain Phillips mission and the Osama Bin Laden mission. To hear all of the planning of the mission and then how it actually went down was so interesting. I came away from this book with the utmost respect for Navy Seals. It doesn't seem like there are many people more badass than the DEVGRU team.
