Summary:
"Mark Owen's earlier book, No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission that Killed Osama bin Laden, focused on the high-profile targets and headline-grabbing chapters of the author's thirteen years as a Navy SEAL. This follow-up book offers an account of Owen's most personally meaningful missions, missions that never made headlines, including the moments in which he learned the most about himself and his teammates in both success and failure. "I want No Hero to offer something most books on war don't: the intimate side of it, the personal struggles and hardships and what I learned from them," says Owen. "The stories are a testament to my teammates and to all the other active and former SEALs who have dedicated their lives to freedom. In our community, we are constantly taught to mentor the younger generation and to pass the lessons and values we've learned on to others so that they can do the same for the guys coming up after them. This is what I hope I have done for readers of No Hero." Featuring stories from the training ground to the battlefield, No Hero offers readers a close-up view of the experiences and values that make Mark Owen and the SEALs he served with capable of executing the missions we read about in the headlines. Mark Owen is a former member of the US Naval Special Warfare Development Group, SEAL Team Six. He participated in hundreds of missions around the globe, including the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips in the Indian Ocean in 2009. Owen was a team leader on Operation Neptune Spear in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on May 1, 2011, which resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. Owen was one of the first men through the door on the third floor of Bin Laden's hideout, and he witnessed Bin Laden's death. Mark Owen’s account of the raid, in No Easy Day, remains the only accurate eyewitness account on record."--Provided by publisher.
