Exciting, sad and frustrating

This book takes you where no one will go and where few have been; the past of a SEAL and the men whom he knew. It does so in a way that is exciting and at the same time sad and frustrating. Here I saw how politicians keep this elite members from doing their job the way they learned; with accurate effectivennes. It also shows the personal sacrifice these men go so we can sleep well. Wanna be Special Forces, Delta, SEAL's and politicians must read this.

Not what I was looking for

If you are looking for a book full of special operation missions that end up engaging the enemy, this is not the book.

This book follows the life of the author's effort to become a Navy Seal. Then it gives you a mission here and a mission there. I think there are around 4 missions throughout the book, and only one or two of them had some kind of fire exchange.

One thing you get a lot of is hours and hours of the author being in Beirut where you get some kind understanding of what it was like being there during their civil war, where he spent most of the time inside a American beach base trying to live as constant mortar and RPG fire keep falling around him and the marines on the base.

And then you follow the author life as a civilian while he moves from here to there and he tries to make it as a Hollywood screen play writer.

This book had a lot of long dull parts for me, because what I was after in this book was more about Special Forces missions and less about the personal life of this guy. If you want to read a book that is full of special forces mission from beginning to end read "SOG: The Secret Wars of America's Commandos in Vietnam -- by John L. Plaster" instead.

Not for the booger-eaters!

This book was a great read. I really enjoyed chuck's sense of humor. His writing made me feel like I was right beside him; ducking fire from a water skiier on the streets of the root. I think it's amazing what those guys do and I think Chuck did it with great humility and vigilance. I highly recommend it!

Great love scenes in Warrior Soul

I loved this book. I couldn't help but skim past the missions onto the love scenes. The detail is great. But my only complaint is that thanks to you Chuck I threw away my option at getting a bs in Molecular Biology for Psychology(which is easy) at UCSD, just because I thought I was getting old and I have 2 little ones in preschool. Bad decision to give up on research. I'm going back to school to make myself useful when I am happy in a relationship because I like to cuddle. I married someone that didn't share the same interests as me. And when we met I asked him why he didn't try out for the SEALs. I guess I felt shy when I was down there on the island trying to hook up. Thanks for the tips on working in the chow hall well I think that was in the other guy's book and that's a good idea. I hope they hire me.

Overall this is the most compelling book on SEALS. I think there needs to be more dating networks for people in the SEAL family--me personally-I feel really isolated and can't connect with other people who don't understand what we're all about. I don't mean to sound negative I just want to hook up. I'm a very positive person and affectionate

This guy has the Warrior Soul

The Warrior Soul is a great read on many levels. Although I believe he was somewhat reserved from describing the "real" missions of his time in the military, I still found Chuck Pfarrer's writing to be open and honest. He details a few of his most important missions and brings the reader along as if they were on his SEAL team. He interjects bits about his personal life and creates a smooth storyline that will keep you interested until the end.

I am fascinated by the rigors of being a SEAL, so it's safe to say that I'm a sucker for this book. If you are hard-core military, then you'll be left hungry for the deeper layers (actually, the juicy details) that he assuredly experienced in his missions. But even without them, you'll enjoy learning about his life's path as a Navy SEAL.

Have fun,
