About this listen

Decorated Navy SEAL Lieutenant Jason Redman served his country courageously and with distinction in Columbia, Peru, Afghanistan and Iraq, where he commanded mobility and assault forces. But his journey was not without its supreme challenges. He was critically wounded in 2007 when he was struck by machine-gun fire at point blank range. During his intense recovery period Redman posted a sign on his door, warning all who entered not to ""feel sorry for [his] wounds."" His sign became both a statement and a symbol for wounded warriors everywhere. Vivid and powerful, emotionally resonant and illuminating, The Trident traces the evolution of a modern warrior, husband, and father, a man who has come to embody the never-say-die spirit that defines one of America's elite fighting forces.

One of the Best Books i have ever read based on the Navy Seals. Jason Redman is a truly remarkable man as are all who wear the Trident. Well written and very moving at times. A True book about the lessons in life and the gratitude we should show to all who serve. Highly Recommended....

Respect the Brotherhood.

While every book I listen to regarding the US NAVY SEALs is as heavy hitting as the last, this particular one goes deeper. Not just the gung-ho macho BUDS & firefight type at all. Jason has opened up fully about his trials and tribulations along the way to becoming a well rounded, competent and well respected officer. Never shying away from his mistakes, showing key learning points where he has grown and become better for. If anything, personally, I think there was a little too much focusing on his mistakes.

A great audiobook, of the genre I solely listen to - comes highly rated, I would definitely recommend. Thank you for your service Jason.

Fascinating insight into the struggles of a Navy SEAL officer.
