NO EASY DAY: The Autobiography of a Navy SEAL
by Mark Owen
Have you ever wanted to know the "real story"? ...to be an insider? Only those in the inner circle really know what happens, and avoid the hype that politicians or the media add to the operation. This IS the story of the final mission to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden. Once you have heard or read this account you will know exactly what happened. But this book is much, much more.
Mark Owen was a member of DevGru, formerly SEAL Team 6; but Mark considers himself just one more of the men who how earned that status. And on "the mission" Mark was leader of the small team that entered Bid Laden's apartments.
But there is more to this book. Mark takes time to bring us into the fold early, leading us through his decisions to join the SEALs, to show us what SEAL training is about, and to take us along as he matures through the deployments over a 10 year career.
Mark also includes his personal stories; some humorous, some serious, but all witnessed or lived by Mark. Plus there are many details about how he felt during these situations. It is an honest review of the things that worked, and things that did not.
Enjoy this story. Be an insider. And come away knowing the pride that every SEAL must feel.
