Well written first hand account of bravery rarely seen or even heard about. His devotion to his guys is remarkable. I wish him the best life has to offer and hopes his lives the rest of his life in peace.

After struggling with my own demons from two combat tours and years of searching for understanding I finally turned to reading which was a game changer. I can say this book is easily top 3 for me. I’m not what anyone would consider a “reader” until about the last year and will say I loved every page. So for all you non readers out there, read this book, you will be happy you did. For all the vets out there, read this book, it can help you gain insight. For anyone else out there, read this book! ... in all seriousness, this is a must read book for anyone, easy to read, easy to follow the story, insight into what only few people have experienced....also recommend “You are worth it” by Kyle Carpenter

Like sitting on the edge of your seat in a movie theater. Amazing retelling of how Dakota Meyer earned the MOH. Also, incredibly sad and at the same time Infuriating at how that entire operation went down, from its lackadaisical planning, to forcing Dakota out of the op, to not having air, artillery, and QRF capabilities at their disposal. Once again, the ROE are more political than about defending our own lives down range.

I loved it

This is one of the most amazing books I have ever read. Dakota Myers did more that he could have ever been asked to do and went above and beyond for his country and friends. Thank you so much.

By far one of the best books I've read in months. The attention to detail allowed me to visualize everything. I could not put down the book.

Heard about this when I was down south in 2009, after all these years to read what happened. It leaves me with no words. Semper Fidelis

This was great reading. You realize that heros come in al sizes and shapes. I liked that he was no super hero, an ordinary guy doing extraordinary things. This book helped me answer a requirement for a class that I am taking. I would recommend this book, well worth the time.

What an amazing read. Well worth the time and money.

Great book being a retired Recon Marine Nam Vet. This story bring back a lot of memory's of my time in the Corps. Thank you for your service to our country. Semper Fi ! Marine Gunny T Campbell
