Right now, I am reading the book The Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrel. It is a first person account of a Navy SEAL operation redwing, in which many lives were lost. In the beginning, the book focuses on describing the Navy SEAL, at what it takes to become one. The life of the narrator, is somewhat what you would expect from a Navy SEAL, Marcus Luttrel and his twin brother Morgan, lived on a ranch in Texas. They were taught to swim and scuba dive by their father at a very young age. Also, they wrestled alligators and chased water moccasins in nearby swamps. I thought that that was very interesting, because that is what I would have expected, just really tough guys. They both trained to become Navy SEALs at a very young age and actually went into real training long before they were going to do the tests. The book describes SEALs as the toughest, smartest, most honorable people. The book picks up when a few SEALs are riding in a large military cargo plane bound for Afghanistan, where their mission would begin. Overall, the book is very fun to read, and is also engaing.
