Publisher's summary

The Navy SEALs have been fighting terrorists around the world for over a decade. And for all that time, the Bandito Platoon SEALS from SEAL Team Seven have been on continuous combat rotation. Now they have drawn a shipboard assignment off Central America - an easy day.

But for a Navy SEAL, the only easy day was yesterday.

In a powerful story of global anti-terrorism inspired by real life missions, Act of Valor combines stunning combat scenes, up-to-the-minute battlefield technology, and heart-pumping emotion for the ultimate action adventure.

Act of Valor takes you deep into the secretive world of today’s most elite, highly trained group of warriors. When the rescue of a kidnapped CIA operative leads to the discovery of a deadly terrorist plot against the United States, a team of SEALs is dispatched on a worldwide manhunt. As the men of Bandito Platoon race to stop a coordinated attack that could kill and wound thousands of American civilians, they must balance their commitments to country, team, and their families back home.

But each time they accomplish their mission, a new piece of intelligence reveals another shocking twist to the plot, which stretches from Chechnya to the Philippines and from Ukraine to Somalia. The widening operation sends the SEALs across the globe as they track the terrorist ring to the U.S.-Mexico border - where they engage in an epic firefight with potentially unimaginable consequences for America…

Non stop action. One of the best for my money

Almost from the first sentence therre was non stop action. Really a mans book if that is what you enjoy. Very little in the way of side stories which so many books do that have very little bearing in the subject matter. Hardily recommended.

Brave men all

I enjoyed this book. It made me realize what these warriors and their families go thru to protect me and my family. And also yours.
Remember the Wounded Warriors for they too gave much. Those have physical needs and those who live with PTSD.

See the movie? Listen to the book

I picked this book up on a whim because I was looking for a military book. This is a great book. I actually only live 15 minutes away from Mexicali, Mexico so it really added a whole new perspective for me. If you like military books or if you enjoyed the movie pick up this book, it's worth the credit.
It's amazing what some men are willing to do for their family and for our freedom and more of their stories need to be told.
