Lone Survivor

This is a wonderful story of dedication, patriotism, and teamwork. It's a story worth reading during this special election time. It tells the story of what Americans can DO for their country, rather than sitting back and ASKING what their country is supposed to do for them. Thank God, there are people like Marcus Luttrell who are bring with them the ingredients necessary to get any task completed. Couple that with outstanding training and the results are going to be good. This book should be required reading before any American goes into a voting booth.

God wasn't finished with Marcus

What an awesome read Lone Survivor was!! I just finished it last night and have nothing but praise for Marcus Luttrell and the rest of his SEAL team. The book is just so powerful in its content about how SEALS are trained and put into dangerous situations. God, obviously, wasn't finished with Marcus yet since his gun kept reappearing just when he needed it. I loved his descriptions of the mainstream media and their ideas of "fairness" to the enemy since it coincides with mine. Gulab and his village deserve a star in their crowns when they get to heaven for helping Marcus. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to see how our military handles themselves in war.

Intimate and interesting point of view

I enjoyed this book very, very much. For persons interested in either American warfare, history, politics or media it's almost at "must read-level".

Luttrells history is straight forward, right from the thoughts from his youth, to his anger towards the "liberal" media and the military rules created by politicians that never has been to war.

Gripping Novel

This was a great book. Not perfect. There were some plot holes that I will not go into here. There is a lot of Anti-Bush rhetoric in the media. This book gives an excellent account of the other side of the story. Why we are fighting in the Middle East.

I would LOVE to see a follow up book after Afghanistan is stabilized. How the area is changed? Then I think that the war in Iraq and Afghanistan will be given it just due. People will understand "this is why we are over there". George Bush will not be seen as a bad President, but one with great foresight.
