About this listen

Now from Brandon Webb, Navy SEAL sniper and New York Times best-selling author, comes his personal account of the eight friends and fellow SEALs who made the ultimate sacrifice.

"Knowing these great men - who they were, how they lived, and what they stood for - has changed my life. We can't let them be forgotten. So read about these amazing men, share their stories, and learn from them as I have. We've mourned their deaths. Let's celebrate their lives." (Brandon Webb)

As a Navy SEAL, Brandon Webb rose to the top of the world's most elite sniper corps, experiencing years of punishing training and combat missions from the Persian Gulf to Afghanistan. Among the best of the best, he led the SEALs' clandestine sniper training program as course manager, instructing a new generation of the world's top snipers. Along the way, Webb served beside, trained, and supported men he came to know not just as fellow warriors, but as friends and, eventually, as heroes. Among Heroes gives his personal account of these eight extraordinary SEALs who gave all for their comrades - and their country.

Here are the true stories behind the remarkable valor and abiding humanity of those "sheepdogs" (as they call themselves) who protect us from the wolves of the world. Of Matt "Axe" Axelson, who perished on the Lone Survivor mission in Afghanistan. Of Chris Campbell, Heath Robinson, and J. T. Tumilson, who were among the 38 casualties of Extortion 17, the Chinook helicopter shot down in August 2011. Of Glen Doherty, Webb's best friend for more than a decade, killed while helping secure the successful rescue and extraction of American CIA and State Department diplomats in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11, 2012; and other close friends, classmates, and fellow warriors.

This book was about Friendship, Heroism, and the Ultimate Sacifice--told by a SpecOps Hero about SpecOps Heroes. Amid a society of clowns and cash ins masquerading as journalists, Brandon Webb affords the audience a true "been there done that" insight while respectfully honoring his friends and comrades with representative tales of lives forged by resolution and dignity by men who are a full 360 of the books tag line. A great read that leaves one wanting to be better at life itself.

Loved the book. The narration gave life to otherwise nameless, faceless heroes that protect our country's interests. This book gave me insight into why my own son has aspirations to join special ops and what he might encounter on his journey.

outstanding

Thank you Mr. web for sharing your personal experiences with these amazing men. I couldn't even imagine how raw that must have felt reliving some of them.

I can promise you one thing and that is that there are four young American children, my children, who will be raised in a household where men like Glenn Chris and Matthew will forever be remembered as the true heroes of our lifetime.. Not Brady, Favre or any other athlete or fictional figure. Don't get me wrong those are some amazing people but "amazing" does not equal a "hero". Not in this house!!

True heroes.
