Acerca de esta escucha
From an elite Navy rescue swimmer comes this insider perspective on what it takes to survive some of the most dangerous situations imaginable—and how the lessons learned can help overcome other momentous challenges.
Brian Dickinson, famously known for having climbed down Mt. Everest while completely snow blind, is often asked how he managed the incredible feat. He has always attributed it to his faith and to his U.S. Navy Search and Rescue Training. For the first time, Brian takes an in-depth look at the training that saved his life and the missions—both his and others'—where these skills were put to the test to save other people.
Over two decades after being honorably discharged from the Navy, Brian is compelled to share his unique military training and experiences. He believes that sharing the training that he received to overcome adversity in the most extreme scenarios can help others to overcome their own personal Everest. Even beyond mountaineering, the military training has rewired Brian's ability to navigate difficult business, financial, health, and relationship challenges. With the chaos of the world continuing to expand, these stories from U.S. Navy rescue swimmers provide a fresh perspective on what it takes to survive some of the most dangerous situations, and how that shapes the rest of a person's life.

Former Navy Air Rescue swimmer Brian Dickinson was roughly 1,000 feet from the summit of Mount Everest, also known as "the death zone", when his Sherpa became ill and had to turn back, leaving Brian with a difficult decision: Should he continue to push for the summit or head back down the mountain? After carefully weighing the options, Brian decided to continue toward the summit, alone. Four hours later, Brian solo summited the highest peak in the world. But the celebration was short lived.

‘Stop screaming, I'm scared too!' is not what you'd expect to see on the back of a loadmaster's helmet in a Chinook helicopter flying over southern Afghanistan, but for Rod Henderson it sums up his 22 years of service as a soldier in the Australian Army. This is not the story of a general or a Special Forces hero. It is the extraordinary memoir of a regular Australian soldier. Like so many others who have served their country with honour and distinction, the little-known stories of ordinary soldiers deserve to be told.

In World War II, over 12,000 Protestant ministers, Catholic priests, and Jewish rabbis left the safety of home to join the Chaplain Corps, following the armed forces into battle across Europe, Asia, North Africa, and the high seas. These are the personal stories of some of the bravest and most selfless men who served. All of them battled the pain of separation from their own loved ones as they gave some of the best years of their lives to keep the military personnel spiritually awake, morally fit—and prepared to make the journey from this world to the next without fear or despair.

On October 1, 2015, the SS El Faro, a cargo ship tall as a hundred-story building that made a regular run between Jacksonville, Florida, and Puerto Rico, delivering everything from razor blades to new Chevrolet cars, disappeared in Hurricane Joaquin, a category 4 storm. The ship, her hundreds of shipping containers, and her entire crew sank to the bottom of the ocean, three miles down. The sinking was the greatest seagoing US merchant marine shipping disaster since World War II.

"Guns up!" was the battle cry that sent machine gunners racing forward with their M60s to mow down the enemy, hoping that this wasn't the day they would meet their deaths. Marine Johnnie Clark heard that the life expectancy of a machine gunner in Vietnam was seven to ten seconds after a firefight began. Johnnie was only eighteen when he got there, at the height of the bloody Tet Offensive at Hue, and he quickly realized the grim statistic held a chilling truth.

The bravery and courage of these rescuers. Amazing!
This is an amazing story of the training and courage of these SAR swimmers. I loved this book. There is a lot of information about their training. There are also tense stories of dramatic rescues.
