The Trident

The Forging and Reforging of a Navy SEAL Leader

By: Jason Redman, John Bruning

Narrated by: Erik Bergmann

Decorated Navy SEAL Lieutenant Jason Redman served his country courageously and with distinction in Columbia, Peru, Afghanistan and Iraq, where he commanded mobility and assault forces. But his journey was not without its supreme challenges. He was critically wounded in 2007 when he was struck by machine-gun fire at point blank range. During his intense recovery period Redman posted a sign on his door, warning all who entered not to ""feel sorry for [his] wounds."" His sign became both a statement and a symbol for wounded warriors everywhere. Vivid and powerful, emotionally resonant and illuminating, The Trident traces the evolution of a modern warrior, husband, and father, a man who has come to embody the never-say-die spirit that defines one of America's elite fighting forces.

AMAZING REFORGING!

It was a truly amazing story of a typical young man who grew through EXTREME HARDENED circumstances! Although it took a while in book for him to open his eyes to his (I might add this is true for ALL of us) pride, arrogance and humanness..., once he did this, things started looking up! Jason and his family's determination to push through "against all odds" ordeals no matter the outcome...he still has a positive outlook as well as the will to help others in same circumstances! I praise the Lord for giving you the strength to overcome and be an encouragement to others. Ve con Dios!

Awesome riadmap for success!

Inspiration comes in many forms. The Valor, tenacity and Honor displayed by our warriors is unmatched. This book exemplified how to overcome hardship and how the biggest hurdle is ourselves. Great book, highly recommend.

Good story

Loved the story. Thrilling when talking about his combat experiences. A very good read . I will read it again.

A Story of Personal Realisation

I've read many books on war and warriors, this is the first one that I have read that is about the personal journey and the shaping of the author through their experiences in their personal life and the war. The insights gained through these experiences and the narration made the book feel very personal and affected me in a way that has caused me to recognize much of the authors struggles in myself. I highly recommend this book even for people who have no interest in war stories. It is so much more than that.

Remarkable

Thank you Sir for this great insight into the Navy Seals and your great sacrifice to our country.
