Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing
and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10

Just received word from Hachette Book Group that this book will be out tomorrow. Looks like a great Father’s Day gift:
Four US Navy SEALS departed one clear night in early July, 2005 for the mountainous Afghanistan-Pakistan border for a reconnaissance mission. Their task was to document the activity of an al Qaeda leader rumored to have a small army in a Taliban stronghold. Five days later, only one of those Navy SEALS made it out alive. Marcus Luttrell. This is his story.
Petty Officer Marcus Luttrell joined the United States Navy in March of 1999 and became a combat-trained Navy SEAL in January, 2002. After serving in Baghdad, he was deployed to Afghanistan in the Spring of 2005. He was awarded the Navy Cross for combat heroism in 2006 by President Bush.
