I, too, bought this book hoping to read of the gritty exploits of these men in the war on terror. I was greatly disappointed.Couch spends the first 1/3 of the book going through the standard BUD/S and training phases diddle, he then goes on to relate the most superficial telling of battle anecdotes that never really say anything more than how great the teams are. He even spends time relating the 3 MOH accounts from the Vietnam War.By the time a person is interested in reading a book on Anti-terror Tactics they don't need to hear that "Hell week is really cold".It's obvious that Couch trotted this "gem" out on a weekend when he had nothing else to do, and clearly just saw the $$$ he was going to get for the effort.Do yourself a favor and skip this book. Go rent "Navy Seals" with Sheen. It is just as informative and a lot more enjoyable.
