The Trident

The Forging and Reforging of a Navy SEAL Leader

De: Jason Redman, John Bruning

Narrado por: 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.

Gripping story.

Finished listening to The Trident by Jason Redman last night. I enjoyed the story and the narrator Erik Bergmann. The best one sentence review I can give it is sometimes it takes a swift kick in the butt to get your attention. His recovery story is inspiring should serve as a model for others who have suffered life altering traumatic wounds. It is certainly a book I will revisit from time to time.

Great story

Humbling and inspiring

Jason Redman’s story is both humbling and inspiring. This book is an invaluable tool, for any operator, in understanding how to overcome your failures.

A great read.

Most books of this type talk about accomplishments and heroic feats, but Mr. Redman spent a good amount of time speaking about the mistakes he made in his life. Readers will see that he is human, but a remarkable one. How he overcame those hurdles. This book stands out and is a must read.
