This book is one of the most eye opening and realistic accounts of the bravery of our men fighting the war on terrorism. These are the guys you will never hear about or read about in the newspapers or see on TV, but may have the greatest influence on the war itself. If you are an American regardless if you support the war or not; you need to read this so that you will gain a better understanding of whats REALLY going on and the sacrifices the men and women in uniform are making so that we can have our everyday freedoms. A big thank you to both Chuck Holton and Oliver North for exposing the truth about what our “Men in Black” are doing and the impact they are having on the war.
American Heroes: Special Operations gives an in-depth look into the hearts, minds, and operations of our elite heroes. It’s easy as a observer to idolize these heroes who sacrifice everything, but this book gave me a deeper perspective and appreciation of those sacrifices. With North and Holton embedded with these elite warriors, readers are able to see the intricacies and frustrations these men face on a daily basis. What we see on the news is often slanted and a mere sliver of the truth, and that’s why I love this American Heroes series because, in essence, it humanizes these warriors–it peels away the armor, the weapons, the deadly missions–and allows me to “see” a man behind all that gear and action. A man with a family, a dream. It’s an absolutely fascinating, informative, realistic, and engaging read!
