Liberals do suck, this book was good
Ok first of all all the rangers posting on this don't be mad because
SEAL training
is considered harder than yours. If you are such a bad man it shouldn't matter. Second, I agree that Luttrell is wrong about killing the 3 civilians but they should have been kept from leaving the area. They made a mistake and I am sure that it is hard for him to deal with. Third, this is a very good book that tells HIS story from HIS point of view, so why is everyone upset about that? Should he apologize because his opinion is not yours? That is ludacris. Anyway this is a very good book.

Great book by a Great American
Great reading, hard to put down!. Makes me wish we could turn a couple of
seal
team
s loose in the Halls of Congress.
Encouraging to know that there are still patriots among us. Sometimes hard to remember that the patriots are the ones that fight for our nation, not the ones that try to destroy it.
Amazing the difference between "
Lone
Survivor
" and "Winter Soldier". Recall that the "Winter Soldier" author is part of the criminal left that controls the Senate.
Marcuss Luttrell describes well the dedication of the good men that sacrificed all for our country.
Should be required reading for every high school student in America.

Could not put it down
The thing is about liberals, who write reviews like those seen here, they never even buy the book or read it. They thumb through the book that they checked out from the library, never read it in its entirety, but maybe skim through it, they then try to make people believe they are writing some unbiased review to deceive people to not buy it.
This book was excellently written in a very engaging manner. I felt like I was there with him and simply could not put the book down. I enjoyed him recounting different stories from his growing up, like his brother wrestling alligators. I was there with him as he was going through hell in his naval
seal
training... and it was intense being there with him, as his friends, and fellow frogmen died.
Thank you for telling your story, I only wish there were more politicians and Americans worthy of the blood that you all have shed on our behalf. Unfortunately, our freedoms and rights as Americans are being systematically destroyed by both major parties in Washington. Global communism, or its slightly more humane socialism, is continuing to gain in power through most of the media, education system, and by both parties. Fortunately, truth WILL win out in the end.

Amazing Story, Bad Writing
First, what amazing men Luttrell and his fellow
SEAL
s are and everyone who enjoys the freedom and security of living in the USA should be thankful that men like this exist. I was taught at a young age to respect anybody in uniform. It boggles my mind that anyone in the country could look down on men and women who risk it all for immaterial things like God and Country, but there are. And the fact that it would creep into the thoughts of these brave men at a criticle time (to worry what would happen at home, based on a decision in the field) says alot about the how politician's and the pinheads in the press are poisoning our society.
Unfortunately, Marcus Luttrell should have interviewed a few more writers before deciding who would write his story. Patrick Robinson, who wrote the story, did a sophomoric job, which does not rise to the standard that Luttrell's story should be written. The writing is so bad through the first quarter of the book, it is almost painful. However, it does improve when the action gets underway, and you are feeling for his
team mates
and cheering Marcus on to the point where you want to cry in happiness with him when he's rescued.
It's a five star story, written by a one star writer, so I gave it a three for that reason.
