McRaven is a part of American military history, having been involved in some of the most famous missions in recent memory, including the capture of Saddam Hussein, the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips, and the raid to kill Osama bin Laden. Sea Stories begins in 1960 at the American Officers' Club in France, where Allied officers and their wives gathered to have drinks and tell stories about their adventures during World War II -- the place where a young Bill McRaven learned the value of a good story. Sea Stories is an unforgettable look back on one man's incredible life, from childhood days sneaking into high-security military sites to a day job of hunting terrorists and rescuing hostages. Action-packed, inspiring, and full of thrilling stories from life in the special operations world, Sea Stories is a remarkable memoir from one of America's most accomplished leaders."--Amazon.com. 600 10 $a McRaven, William H. $q (William Harry), $d 1955- 610 10 $a United States. $b SEALs $b SEALs $v Biography. 650 0 $a Admirals $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Special operations (Military science) $z United States. 650 0 $a Large type books. 941 $a 6 945 $a lpt 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430020607.0 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20200107011057.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20191015013459.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20190919010127.0 952 $l YXPB162 $d 20190918035347.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20190716013556.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=34B14896A78F11E99DEDB91B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
