Review: One NOT To Miss! - Guys if you're even considering Bud/S then of all the resources you can get this is one that you MUST have. Details and more insights than anything you'll read or see. Or even if you're an old guy like me who is a Navy vet from decades past you'll find this book entertaining, funny and "real." Plus the author lists must read books to anyone even considering BUD/S. Plutarch? Really??!! Well hell yeah! The Life of Alexander the Great?? And after you read Breaking BUD/S watch again the movie "300". It will take on a new meaning. And yes, the author is correct. BUD/S seems to be, when viewed from the outside, all physical but in reality, it's a rite of passage not unlike what the Spartan men and boys endured. Getting through it is mental, the will to never quit and the identity change from that of a rugged individual to a total team guy. Did I say this book is funny? It really is a hoot! Added later...........a must read if you're thinking of signing up? This book should be on the author's "required reading " list "With The Old Breed" by EB Sledge. After reading about what the Marines endured at Peleliu and Okinawa during WW 2 any BUD/S candidate can take a tremendous amount of encouragement and strength with him especially during Hell Week. These Marines endured 2 1/2 months of hell on Okinawa spending much time in the mud, constantly wet, getting shot at by snipers and artillery, dealing with horrific smells of rotting corpses left on the battlefield, lack of sanitation and food, going crazy from the insane conditions and lack of sleep. Think of these guys, your grandpa, don't let them down. Seriously? Hell Week should be a walk in the park. These WW2 infantry vets would have gladly traded their literal hell for your Hell Week.
Review: Informative, in-depth look at BUD/S that is also extremely entertaining - I got this book because I had heard great things about it from my friends, and my brother is a SEAL, so I wanted an insider’s perspective on the sort of stuff he had to go though (he never really told me much about his training). Although I have no desire to be a SEAL, I still really enjoyed reading this book. It is full of extremely entertaining anecdotes and is written very informally, making it a fun, easy read. A lot of the advice the author gives does not JUST apply to being a SEAL, and I am already incorporating some of the breathing techniques and stress management into my job right now. Some of the other reviews discuss how the writing is cocky and crude, but I was definitely not offended. It is absolutely not a politically correct book, but neither is the military or life in general, and the fact that the author wasn’t concerned with offending anyone makes this book feel very real and unfiltered (and also quite funny). Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to know more about what Navy SEALs have to go through, and, if you actually want to be a SEAL, you are an idiot if you don’t read this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Informative, in-depth look at BUD/S that is also extremely entertaining
*by A***N on March 2, 2014*

I got this book because I had heard great things about it from my friends, and my brother is a SEAL, so I wanted an insider’s perspective on the sort of stuff he had to go though (he never really told me much about his training).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SEAL Training Bible
*by D***Y on June 18, 2013*

I honestly believe the only reason they couldn't title this the SEAL Training Bible, is because SEAL training is ever-changing and therefore the book would have to update the specifics from time to time. This book is fantastic. I am not a Navy SEAL, but I have been aspiring to become one for years and plan to begin BUD/S as soon as I graduate college. This book did not make or break my decision to attempt one of the most rigorous military training programs in the world, because I already knew it was what I wanted. If I had been on the fence, really if I hadn't even considered it, this book would have made me want to. The book is written in a simple fashion that makes it easy and enjoyable to read and doesn't waste any time, but gives you the bare facts about BUD/S. Complete with section by section breakdowns of every aspect of the training, from reasons why some guys don't make it, to tricks to make things a bit easier on yourself, this book can almost literally tell you if you have what it takes. If you read it and truthfully regard what these men have to say and take it to heart in an honest way with yourself, you will not only know if you have the right mindset to go in, but you will learn ways to prepare yourself in anticipation. I would recommend this book to anyone, even if you have no interest in becoming a Team Guy, because a lot of this stuff is useful for every day life.
