I think it taught me good always triumphs over evil.

My husband's said, "It was ...Hooyah, Judy! My husband's said, "It was my honor. Thank YOU for your support."<br /><br />Wow, what a reading list! Yes, Dick's book is terrific! And, yes, I can recommend more titles including his other books: Chosen Soldier, Finishing School, Down Range, and Covert Action. Chuck Pfarrer's Warrior Soul. My husband liked Gary Williams' SEAL OF HONOR, John Carl Roat's Class-29, and Howard E. Wasdin's SEAL Team Six. Act of Valor is supposed to be amazing, though we haven't read it, yet. :)<br /><br />I enjoyed Marcus Lattrell's book, too! He's an incredible warrior and it takes guts to share such a heart-wrenching and tough journey.<br /><br />I've also enjoy Suzanne Brockmann and Christina Skye's romantic SEAL fiction, and Cathy Mann writes compelling military romance, too. <br /><br />My first full-length Navy SEAL romance releases in December and is called A SEAL At Heart. I had a lot of help from my husband and I tried to make it as authentic as possible. My purpose was to 1) honor the community; 2) have fun; and 3) show the inside story of a Navy SEAL falling in love.<br /><br />Have a wonderful day!

I bet they adored it almost as much as you did!<br /><br />BTW, you must have looked adorable trailing after your brother! My own brother was older, too. He confessed to me years later, that having me trail after kept him out of mischief. :)<br /><br />Hooyah & hugs!

I recently finished reading Dick ...Thank you, Anne! I recently finished reading Dick Couch's "The Warrior Elite," the second book I've read on the SEALs. I read "The Lone Survivor" first, and was hooked. "SEAL of Honor" is the next on the list. I would love more suggestions. I'm sorry to say I grew up in a home that didn't respect the military. I missed out on things like honor, integrity, and protecting... anyway, I'm learning it now, and I'm using the SEALs as my guide. Please thank your husband and those who serve with him for their service. May God bless them and their families.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843239483061220089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-24319546123728025482012-02-05T11:25:05.558-05:002012-02-05T11:25:05.558-05:00Wonderful post, Anne.

I used to tag along behind my big brother and his friends and they used to play Army and Cowboys & Indians. <br /><br />Before my Uncle Fent went into the Army he used to play softball with us at my grandparents' house - 2 houses away. Once we started one by one the neighborhood kids would spread the word and we'd have everybody there from really little to twenty-year olds!<br /><br />If we were really lucky my dad would get home early and he'd join in. My grandfather used to love it- he and my Uncle Fent played baseball in college at RPI and still hold records there.<br /><br />Thanks for reminding me of a time I'd forgotten.C.H.

I learned responsibility and gun safety with them.<br /><br />As for heroes, I have to honor Tibor Rubins. He was a Hungarian refugee who wanted to give back to his new country, so he joined the US Army to serve in Korea. He did some incredible things before finally being wounded and captured. He then used his experience from surviving a Nazi concentration camp to help his fellow POW's survive. Some 40 men owe their lives to his direct actions. It took over fifty years for someone to realize that his actions were never recognized and in 2005, he received the Medal of Honor. Hearing him tell his story taught me that you never know how your choices will shape the world around you, so chose well.Virginia Enoreply@blogger.com
