During the Vietnam era, many of the U.S. Navy SEALs never filed for a Purple Heart unless they were severely wounded. Thomas H. Keith, Master Chief, SEAL Team 2, is living proof. He carries a piece of shrapnel behind one lung, a reminder of the day he called in mortar fire on the enemy that was trying to catch up to his crew. Not only did he never report it; it was never removed—it just wasn’t serious enough. SEAL Warrior is the gritty memoir of a third-generation soldier for whom serving his country was a given. Taking us into the midst of a new kind of war, SEAL Warrior goes beyond the horror and bravado of battle to offer insight into the ways the SEALs fought, as well as a riveting account of a young American’s baptism of fire.
