I am getting this for my son." 22 Dec 2017 "I enjoyed this book immensely. My son did Hell Week with class 265. This gave me a real appreciation of the experiences he endured to achieve his life long goal of wearing the SEAL Trident, and why his SEAL brothers are so successful on the battlefield today." 26 Nov 2017 (a gold star father) "I read this book in one sitting.

This is a lesson they carry with them the rest of there lives. ByThomas Feeks (a gold star SEAL father) If you have ever wondered about the proud tradition and feared reputation enjoyed by Navy SEALs, and how they are able to prevail in all battle conditions, look no further than "Six Day of Impossible." It is not just about the selection process the Navy employees to find the best, it is about young men looking to test themselves, men on a quest to prove that they have the inner strength of character and soul to do the impossible. January 2018 by a NAVY SEAL March 20, 2018 Over the years I've read a couple books on the teams and long wondered how I would've done during Hell week. I'm now confident that the only part I could've handled was urinating into my boots to keep warm. It is a gripping, personal account that left me hypothermic, exhausted, hurt and victorious. I'm thankful to God for the author's service as a sailor, soldier and doctor. AMAZON.COM has 36 more 5 STAR reviews. |
SIX DAYS OF IMPOSSIBLE
Navy SEAL Hell Week - A Doctor Looks Back by Robert Adams, MD FriesenPress (November 13, 2017) Navy SEAL Hell Week has never been described so effectively. Success has never seemed so difficult. Six days in Hell define every SEAL that moves past their mind's point of no return. This real life story is about the men of BUD/S Class 81. Robert Adams, MD brings the experiences of his class into view with real, bone chilling, difficult to believe, experiences. This is described, in frightening detail, by the men that lived through the frigid cold, filthy muddy days, and body destroying events of a winter Hell Week. Eleven of seventy men went on to serve over 40 years in almost every SEAL or UDT team, with honor. Read their real time stories and (most importantly) learn why these eleven men succeeded when so many others failed. These lessons on success and failure are now yours to learn from and enjoy! The brass bell on the cover lives in every SEAL's heart. It is rung three times by each man that leaves SEAL training, or once in celebration, at graduation! It follows the trainees around during Hell Week on a truck, taunting all that see it. Hot coffee, much needed sleep, and a warm bed are dangled before their shivering, sleep deprived, and mud caked faces. Do NOT ring the bell! Colonel Robert Adams, MD, MBA served fourteen years in the Navy (12 as a SEAL) and eighteen years in the Army. A third generation Naval Academy graduate, he changed services to attend medical school on an Army scholarship. He applies his analytical skills to look back at the men that shivered and struggled through Hell Week together. He brings decades of insight, learned caring for others in combat and peacetime, to an insightful analysis of why the men of his BUD/S Class 81 achieved the improbable. If success, in the face of monumental challenges, is your interest, or goal; or if you think failure defines you, then reading this book is a must! "This is the best class I ever put through training." - LT (SEAL) Mike Thornton (Medal of Honor winner) - author of his own amazing story of heroism, and that of his SEAL officer Tom Norris who also earned the Medal of Honor - By Honor Bound <<click here for more. |
