A U. S. Navy SEAL's True Story of Friendship, Heroism, and the Ultimate Sacrifice

''Knowing these great men - who they were, how they lived, and what they stood for - has changed my life. We can''t let them be forgotten. So read about these amazing men, share their stories, and learn from them as I have. We''ve mourned their deaths. Let''s celebrate their lives.'' Brandon Webb Now from Brandon Webb, Navy SEAL sniper and New York Times bestselling author, comes his personal account of the eight friends and fellow SEALs who made the ultimate sacrifice. As a Navy SEAL, Brandon Webb rose to the top of the world''s most elite sniper corps, experiencing years of punishing training and combat missions from the Persian Gulf to Afghanistan. Among the best of the best, he led the SEALs'' clandestine sniper training program as course manager, instructing a new generation of the world''s top snipers. Along the way, Webb served beside, trained, and supported men he came to know not just as fellow warriors, but as friends and, eventually, as heroes. Among Heroes gives his personal account of these eight extraordinary SEALs, who gave all for their comrades - and their country. Here are the true stories behind the remarkable valor and abiding humanity of those ''sheepdogs'' (as they call themselves) who protect us from the wolves of the world. Of Matt ''Axe'' Axelson, who perished on the Lone Survivor mission in Afghanistan. Of Chris Campbell, Heath Robinson, and JT Tumilson, who were among the thirty-eight casualties of Extortion 17, the Chinook helicopter shot down in August 2011. Of Glen Doherty, Webb''s best friend for more than a decade, killed while helping secure the successful rescue and extraction of American CIA and State Department diplomats in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11, 2012; and other close friends, classmates, and fellow warriors. In Among Heroes, Webb offers eight intensely personal profiles of uncommon courage - who these men were, what they stood for, and how they came to make the ultimate sacrifice. These are men who left behind powerfully instructive examples of what it means to be alive - and what it truly means to be a hero. SEALs'' Family Praise for Among Heroes ''This is more than a collection of stories about eight SEALs who gave their lives for their country. It also shows us the humanity of each of these men - the ordinary within the extraordinary, and a level of dedication and devotion we can strive to exemplify in our own lives.'' Jack Scott, Father of Dave Scott ''I know now that I''m not alone in carrying Dave in my heart, my mind, my soul, and that gives me great comfort. Because, despite the enormous cavern I''ve carved out for him in my heart, I know it isn''t enough to contain all of him; it will take more hearts than mine alone.'' Kat Colvert, Widow of Dave Scott ''To his family, Matthew was always a person worthy of emulating. It''s a comforting and inspiring thing for us to know that others feel the same way, too.'' Donna Axelson, Mother of Matt Axelson ''Thank you, Brandon and John, for sharing Glen''s story. We hope he will continue to inspire others to live large.'' Katie Quigley, Sister of Glen Doherty ''I am honored that John''s story, and all these great men''s stories, have been preserved not only for our children and grandchildren but for future generations of all Americans.'' Jackie Zinn, Widow of John Zinn ''The war has taken so much from so many of us, and making the transition from grieving Chris''s death to celebrating his life has been painful process. You have blessed us by capturing the personality of the amazing man who graced our family for almost thirty-seven years.'' Cindy Campbell, Sister of Chris Campbell ''Among Heroes hits the common thread among all these fine young men. Mikey wasn''t a superman; he was entirely human. It''s just that these guys were willing to give the last spark inside themselves to protect each other and their country, or die trying.'' Michael Bearden, Sr., Father of Mike Bearden Includes Photographs

A Thriller

An aircraft carrier adrift with a crew the size of a small town. A killer in their midst. And the disgraced Navy SEAL who must track him down . . . The high-octane debut thriller from New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann--combat-decorated Navy SEAL Brandon Webb and award-winning author John David Mann.

A BARRY AWARD NOMINEE * "Sensationally good--an instant classic, maybe an instant legend."--Lee Child
 
The moment Navy SEAL sniper Finn sets foot on the USS Abraham Lincolnto hitch a ride home from the Persian Gulf, it's clear something is deeply wrong. Leadership is weak. Morale is low. And when crew members start disappearing one by one, what at first seems like a random string of suicides soon reveals something far more sinister: There's a serial killer on board. Suspicion falls on Finn, the newcomer to the ship. After all, he's being sent home in disgrace, recalled from the field under the dark cloud of a mission gone horribly wrong. He's also a lone wolf, haunted by gaps in his memory and the elusive sense that something he missed may have contributed to civilian deaths on his last assignment. Finding the killer offers a chance at redemption . . . if he can stay alive long enough to prove it isn't him.

Haunted by the death of his best friend and hunted by the FBI for war crimes he didn’t commit, Finn lands on an island paradise that turns into his own personal hell in this gripping follow-up to Steel Fear and Cold Fear—from the New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann . . . “Webb & Mann have done it again. Blind Fear has it all: great characters, an amazing plot, and an incredible setting. This novel moves like a hurricane!”—Connor Sullivan, author of Wolf Trap By day, AWOL Navy SEAL Finn is hiding out on Vieques, a tiny island paradise off the eastern coast of Puerto Rico, living in a spare room behind a seafood restaurant owned by a blind local. By night he scours the dark web, hunting for the rogue officer responsible for the crimes he is accused of committing. But Finn’s world is about to be turned upside down by a new nightmare, when his employer’s two grandchildren go missing. To find them, he’ll have to infiltrate the island’s dangerous criminal underbelly and expose a shadowy crime network known as La Empresa—even if it means exposing himself in the process. As the children go on their own harrowing odyssey to stay one step ahead of a cop-turned-killer, a hurricane batters the coastline, cutting Puerto Rico off from the rest of the world. Taking his pursuit to the sea, Finn’s skills and endurance will be tested to their limits to rescue the lost children and escape his own pursuers before the clock runs out. No one is to be trusted. And those who are seemingly his friends might be the most dangerous foes he’s faced yet.

A Thiller

Finn’s search for his memory of one fateful night leads him to Iceland—only to be followed by an unhinged assassin intent on stopping him—in the riveting follow-up to Steel Fear, from the New York Times bestselling writing team Webb & Mann, combat-decorated Navy SEAL Brandon Webb and award-winning author John David Mann. “One of the best crime novels of the year . . . a brilliant blend of procedural mystery and geopolitical thriller.”—Jeffery Deaver, New York Times bestselling author of Hunting Time Disgraced Navy SEAL Finn is on the run. A wanted man since he jumped ship from the USS Abraham Lincoln, he’s sought for questioning in connection to war crimes committed in Yemen by a rogue element in his SEAL team. But his memory of that night—as well as the true fate of his mentor and only friend, Lieutenant Kennedy—is a gaping hole. Finn learns that three members of his team have been quietly redeployed to Iceland, which is a puzzle in itself; the tiny island nation is famous for being one of the most peaceful, crime-free places on the planet. His mission is simple: track down the three corrupt SEALs and find out what really happened that night in Yemen. But two problems stand in his way. On his first night in town a young woman mysteriously drowns—and a local detective suspects Finn’s involvement. What’s worse, a SEAL-turned-contract-killer with skills equal to Finn’s own has been hired to make sure he never gets the answers he’s looking for. And he’s followed Finn all the way to the icy north.
