Hops 0 Posted January 22, 2014 What was that bit about "been around the world twice[...] large caliber man, small caliber bullet and I'm a truck driver, with brakes that go Sst sst" and stuff? Was that a SEAL pledge or something? It wasn't explained at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Its the "ballad of the Frogman" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gravity 0 Posted January 22, 2014 I thought I saw him during the movie.. He was at the table during chow time, he was sitting in the room during the break in of the new frig man and he was on the chinook that blew up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SW99 2 Posted January 27, 2014 Just saw the movie this past weekend (finished the book on Friday). The Book was OUTSTANDING, the move was great but loved the book much more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arbelest 29 Posted January 27, 2014 I've decided I will wait till I can redbox the movie for a night. I have heard mixed reviews about the movie and the majority of people said the book was much more descriptive (they usually are). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeL 3 Posted January 27, 2014 Saw the movie a few weeks ago and enjoyed it. So much so that I went out and bought the book on Kindle. I've probably only read (for leisure) less than 20 books in my life but this one was great. A very quick and descriptive read. Now I'm actually onto Chris Kyle's American Sniper.

Im in the same boat, not a big reader but heard the book was great and am so happy I read it that I now started (yesterday) his other book (Marcus Luttrell) Service: A Navy SEAL at War Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted January 28, 2014 I watched a preview on hbo I think. It was one of those shows of making the movie. It looked really cool, and to see the families thoughts and feelings made it more personal. I plan on waiting for red box too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louu 399 Posted September 30, 2014 I finally finished the book and I have no words. I think everyone should at least see the movie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
