    The book that he wrote was pretty interesting.

    Atleast we'll all get to hear the story, in case the book gets pulled.

    I've read 2 accounts of the raid on bin Laden's compound.

    They are both similar enough, I doubt that the book will be pulled. What he is saying isn't so very controversial, IMO, or that different from the "official" version of events.

    imagine Miss 100% when they unzipped the body bag ...he said she cried...... after years of tracking him...and then the SEAL stops off at Taco Bell drive-thru after the raid is all over...back in the US

    Now, Chuck Pfarrer, another former SEAL, and author of the other account, is saying that Marc Owen's account is inaccurate.

    Chuck's book is cool, too. Digs into some of Osama's history. He's an interesting character.

    I haven't gotten around to reading that one. Yet. I had forgotten about it. Only reason I got No Easy Day was the publicity.

    SEAL Target Geronimo.

    Like I said, interesting book, particularly the history of bin Laden that is provided.

    You can, but reading on a smartphone is tough on my eyes.

    The nook is nicer, really.
