Publisher's summary

Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell returned from his star-crossed mission in Afghanistan with his bones shattered and his heart broken. So many had given their lives to save him-and he would have readily done the same for them. As he recuperated, he wondered why he and others, from America's founding to today, had been willing to sacrifice everything-including themselves-for the sake of family, nation, and freedom.

In Service, we follow Marcus Luttrell to Iraq, where he returns to the battlefield as a member of SEAL Team 5 to help take on the most dangerous city in the world: Ramadi, the capital of war-torn Al Anbar Province. There, in six months of high-intensity urban combat, he would be part of what has been called the greatest victory in the history of U.S. Special Operations forces. We also return to Afghanistan and Operation Redwing, where Luttrell offers powerful new details about his miraculous rescue. Throughout, he reflects on what it really means to take on a higher calling, about the men he's seen lose their lives for their country, and the legacy of those who came and bled before.

A thrilling war story, Service is also a profoundly moving tribute to the warrior brotherhood, to the belief that nobody goes it alone, and no one will be left behind.

Inspiring Story of Service

Lone Survivor was one of my favorite reads of all time and second book by Marcus was equally awesome. Inspiring and sobering at he same time. We owe a debt to the warriors of our nation who keep the peace we all enjoy. God bless

Maybe the best of the bunch

I found this book to be the best of the 3, I include American Sniper as a companion book to Luttrell's 2 novels. I enjoyed every minute of this story and it gave me an even greater understanding of the special warfare community. Thank you for your service. Excellent job.

Great and Humbling

I’ve listened to several books on Seals and while each one hits in a different way, this one really got me. Could not recommend more for you to read this book.
