PUMP UP & KICK ASS WITH

FIRST SEAL
Written by ROY BOEHM and Charles W. Sasser
He's been shot at and attacked by man-eating sharks. He's dodged flamethrowers in Vietnam and political bombshells back home. He's been targeted for assassination and court-martialed. His name is Roy Boehm, and he's the godfather of the US Navy SEALs-the founder of the boldest, brightest, baddest bunch of commandos on the face of this planet. Now, for the first time, Roy Boehm tells the whole story; from the events that molded him as a warrior to the insights he acquired in combat. Mastering survival within war's deadly arena, he combined his expertise with a deep and unwavering patriotism, and ultimately changed the course of 20th century warfare.
Back in Brooklyn, his mother told him, "You'll either grow up a hero…or you'll end up in prison." But Roy Boehm was fated for heroism from the moment he shipped out with the US Navy eight months before Pearl Harbor. His brilliant and courageous fighting career would lead him from monumental sea battles of the South Pacific across the battle zones of Korea to the shores of Castro's Cuba and into the killing fields and jungles of Vietnam.
As the second World War came to a close and left in its wake an even greater threat to America's freedom-the Cold War-Boehm saw that unconventional times required the creation of an unconventional warrior. Drawing on his expertise as a diver, and as a member of the Navy's Underwater Demolition Teams, he set out to invent a disciplined, dedicated, and ruthless force capable of attack from the sea, air, and land. It would be a unique unit-willing to disregard fear and walk through fire. A team that would descend into Hell itself to conduct dirty war of infiltration, sabotage, ambush. Boehm's team would become the legendary special operations force known as the Navy SEALs.
In combat, Roy Boehm left nothing to chance. In FIRST SEAL, he leaves nothing to the imagination. With the impact of a depth charge, FIRST SEAL delivers an explosive no holds barred inside look at what it takes to be one of that rare breed of men who live for war…or die for their country.
