Resumen del Editor

Chief Warrant Officer Gary O'Neal is no ordinary soldier. For nearly 40 years, he has fought America's enemies, becoming one of the greatest Warriors this nation has ever known. Part Native American, O'Neal was trained in both military combat and the ways of his Native people, combining his commitment to freedom with his respect for the enemy, his technical fighting skills with his fierce warrior spirit.

From his first tour in Vietnam at 17 to fighting in both Gulf Wars, O'Neal was nothing less than a super-soldier. A minefield of aggression bordering on a justice-seeking vigilante, O'Neal kept fighting even when wounded, refusing to surrender in the face of nine serious injuries and being left more than once. O'Neal earned countless military honors as a member of the elite Army Rangers corps, a founding member of the legendary first Department of Defense antiterrorist team, a member of the Golden Knights Parachuting Team, and more, devoting his life to training the next generation of soldiers. His unbelievable true stories are both shocking and moving, a reminder of what it means to be a true American hero.

American Warrior will serve as inspiration for American men and women in uniform today, as well as appeal to the countless veterans who served their country alongside O'Neal.

Fucking wild!

This book filled in the gap between combat and spirituality I was missing. Excellent read.

EXtremely High-Quality Killer American History

Gary has led an EXceptional life of killer action and adventure. This is a great example of lving lufe to its fullest, in a very intense way. A path all should hear and understand...

Deeply Spiritual

If you love war stories and movies you will love this book. It is about one soldiers life. enlisted at 15 under a false name and went to Vietnam and knew he was at home. I could not stop listening to this.

Better than fiction

You can’t make this stuff up. Better than almost all of the fiction books I have read.

Absolute American hero!

Gary is a total badass. As a former Ranger, we heard stories of the revered Gary O’Neal for years and finally after hearing his story, I completely understand how he feels about the world. He left the life of things we only see in movies, but he actually did it in real life. This book is a must listen/read. Also David does an incredible job performing while reading this unreal story

Highly recommend, Damn good book!

A true warrior who did the most for his country. Thank you O'Neil for your service for the freedom we enjoy!

Excellent account of an Amazing Ranger

I loved this book so much, listened twice in two days, Rangers lead the way!

Might sound a little far fetched

Like I said this book has some far fetched parts.With that being said let me also say I’m not a professional soldier so who am I to question.

Outstanding

Much Respect to Gary Oneal.
I live every day in the Combat Mindset.
Great Listening

I have to call bullshit

After my career in the Army, I can spot bullshit from a mile away. This story is straight up crap. In chapter 1 as he claims to have all these hundreds of kills, he says he never once killed a person that wasn't trying to kill him. By chapter 3 he talks about throwing frag grenades in a house and killing a family including 2 little girls while trying to get a VC fighter that was shooting at him.

By the time chapter 4 started, I was done. Stolen Valor at it's best. This is a combination of fiction movie plots, plagiarism from SOG stories, and complete fantasy. This PX ranger should be sued and charged for profiting off stolen Valor. More importantly, he needs his ass kicked for trying to make real Soldiers look like Hollywood Rambo characters.
