Decorated Navy SEAL Lieutenant Jason Redman served his country courageously and with distinction in Colombia, 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.

After Eric Davis spent over 16 years in the military, including a decade in the SEAL teams, his family was more than used to his absence on deployments and secret missions that could obscure his whereabouts for months at a time. Without a father figure in his own life since the age of 15, Eric was desperate to maintain the bonds he'd fought so hard to forge when his children were young - particularly with his son, Jason, because he knew how difficult it was to face the challenge of becoming a man on one's own.
Ex-navy commander Mark Divine reveals exercises, meditations and focusing techniques to train your mind for mental toughness, emotional resilience, and uncanny intuition. Blending the tactics he learned from America's elite forces with lessons from the Spartans, samurai, Apache scouts, and other great warrior traditions, Divine has distilled the fundamentals of success into eight powerful principles that will transform you into the leader you always knew you could be. Learn to think like a SEAL, and take charge of your destiny at work, home and in life.
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.
Brandon Webb's experiences in the world's most elite sniper corps are the stuff of legend. From his grueling years of training in Naval Special Operations to his combat tours in the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan, The Red Circle provides a rare and riveting look at the inner workings of the U.S. military through the eyes of a covert operations specialist. Yet it is Webb's distinguished second career as a lead instructor for the shadowy "sniper cell" that makes his story so compelling.

When Navy SEAL Adam Brown woke up on March 17, 2010, he didn’t know he would die that night in the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan - but he was ready: In a letter to his children, not meant to be seen unless the worst happened, he wrote, "I’m not afraid of anything that might happen to me on this earth, because I know no matter what, nothing can take my spirit from me."
Over his four deployments as a Navy SEAL sniper, Brandon Webb learned all about performing while experiencing heart-pounding stress. After returning to civilian life, he started his first business venture - and failed miserably. He realized that his big mistake was neglecting to apply what he already knew about focus under pressure. By drawing on the lessons of his SEAL training and early business struggles, Webb went on to build a second business, a media network called Hurricane.

Along the way, Webb served beside, trained, and supported men he came to know not just as fellow warriors, but as friends and, eventually, as heroes.

Shea's stories, while action-packed and entertaining, provide incredible insights on leadership, family, and excellence.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.
Someone, perhaps even just a single person under several aliases, is trying to smear Thom's good name, in an effort to make him look like a bad person. This can be witnessed in the Amazon reviews of this book.
I watched a talk on YouTube with Thom, and liked his genuine style and way of thinking. To me, he comes across as a soft, well-intentioned guy. Perhaps the smear-campaign is by someone who's a less good guy, somehow being offended by Thom's humane way of relating to his work and colleagues. As you can read in the book, Thom is an honest guy, not afraid of saying he's a sentimental dude who can cry tears, get annoyed by socks crumbling up in his boots during operations, and such.
The book has also gotten some criticism for being poorly edited, lacking flow. I disagree with that. I was reluctant to get the book, as I like well-written, well-edited books as much as any other book aficionado. I'm glad I did get it! It's well-written, well-structured, and one of those books I felt like relistening to, as soon as it ended. For me it was a real page-turner.
It's also unique in how it also features occasional writings by her wife. It's a book not just about being a SEAL, but also living in a relationship, dependency on your partner, supporting each other, as well as an overall theme on being mindful and deliberate about the thoughts you think, and the way you talk to yourself. All stuff right down my alley.
Overall, the content in the book speaks VOLUMES about Thom's sincerity and wamth as a person, with high probability-rate putting my money on Thom rather than those (or that) poor detractor(s) who are trying to put him and this book down.
It's a great book. Not "ze bestes bookz evaz!" but a great book, worthy of your time:)

I listened to this twice in about 30 to 45 days time. I just finished it and could listen again shortly I bet. This is not your normal navy seal book about BUD'S and a few missions. This is basically a diary with heartfelt guidance for his kids that translates to all of us. it's about family and what it takes to be strong and not let your inner voice get you down. Thank you for your service and for sharing this book with us Mr. Shea.

Outstanding book written by a warrior in war. Thom Shea (SEAL) tells a very balanced story of family life, his way of life, and combat and unravels the common thread: himself. ADAMANTINE is Shea's mantra! He takes you through ADAMANTINE as it applies to combat, survival, and love for his family. I highly recommend this book.

I just had the privilege to meet Thom in person while participating in his challenge. It was an honor to meet this author in person and hear his amazing first hand account stories. His passion for helping others achieve greatness in themselves is absolutely inspiring. Thank you for helping me add more tools to my quest for self discovery. Cheers Greg M.
