No Hero: The Evolution of a Navy SEAL by Mark Owen
5.0
In 2014, ADM William McRaven gave the commencement speech at the University of Texas (his alma mater). That speech - "Make Your Bed" went viral. He took lessons learned in BUD/S and put them in a context anyone - not just a superbly trained alpha male - can understand and appreciate.
In this book, the author does something very similar. Instead of lessons from BUD/S, he takes lessons he learned during training and missions and puts them into a universal context. The stories the author tells of his experiences are incredible, but still understandable by those of us who would not have lasted a day on the beach in Coronado. Like his previous book, "No Easy Day," the author credits his teammates and brings them into his stories.
Read this book. Then read it again. Learn what he is saying.
