Many books are written about Delta Force and the Seals and rightly so but little is said about the special men and women who get them to and from the fight. Especially moving is the account of being shot down and held for captive during the events that inspired "Blackhawk Down". The skill, courage, and sacrifice of these men & women deserves our respect, thanks, and for us to always remember what they give for us and our country. God bless you Michael Durant and thank you for your sacrifice.

To say this story is an inspiration and insight into courage and teamwork is an understatement. Those of us who have served, gone through SERE and felt the sting of captivity, simulated or real, can only begin to sense what CWO Durant went through. Thank you for sharing your story.

I truly enjoyed Mike's book. He very accurately depicts the events leading up to the Battle of Mogadishu, while sharring key achievements throughout his Army career which prepared him to lead an assault of our nation's very best special operations teams, and survive under unbelievable circumstances. Foremost, he pays tribute to his comrades, friends, family, and those whom sacraficed their lives so that he and the rest of TF Ranger could return home to their families. A must read. E.

We need more books to tell the stories. America is forgetting what our men are doing everyday to protect us. Thanks mike for sharing your story C.H
