Rogue Warrior: Designation Gold

De: Richard Marcinko, John Weisman

Narrado por: Richard Marcinko

A brilliant virtuoso of violence, Richard Marcinko rose through Navy ranks to create and command one of this country's most elite and classified counterterrorist units, SEAL TEAM SIX. Now this thirty-year veteran recounts the secret missions and Special Warfare madness of his worldwide military career -- and the riveting truth about the top-secret Navy SEALs.

Marcinko was almost inhumanly tough, and proved it on hair-raising missions across Vietnam and a war-torn world: blowing up supply junks, charging through minefields, jumping at 19,000 feet with a chute that wouldn't open, fighting hand-to-hand in a hellhole
jungle. For the Pentagon, he organized the Navy's first counterterrorist unit: the legendary SEAL TEAM SIX, which went on classified missions from Central America to the Middle East, the North Sea, Africa and beyond.

Then Marcinko was tapped to create Red Cell, a dirty-dozen team of the military's most accomplished and decorated counterterrorists. Their unbelievable job was to test the defenses of the Navy's most secure facilities and installations. The result was predictable: all hell broke loose.

Here is the hero who saw beyond the blood to ultimate justice -- and the decorated warrior who became such a maverick that the Navy brass wanted his head on a pole, and for a time, got it. Richard Marcinko -- ROGUE WARRIOR.

awesome

I love this author he makes everything seem so real. I feel like I'm actually in battle with him

Rest in peace Cold Warrior

This book was written in the 1990’s . But the situations are still relevant today. His attitudes and views would not be tolerated in today’s world. Leaders don’t have the will to act decisively. Many are too afraid to make the hard decisions. I am dubious of change, but I still have hope.

Memories

Great to hear in Captain Marcinko's own words reminds me of debriefings in the Navy

this is a detailed and very interesting storytelling from a warriors perspective and lots of Patriotism

love there's books... but...

wish all Rogue Warrior books were unabridged. I have read most all of them and we are leaving alot out that makes these books interesting
