Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BEST BOOK EVER
Review: I wanted to know what it was like to be a SEAL in Vietnam. This book more than explained what it was like. Miller tells his life story from graduating high school to buying a tape-deck that lasted nearly 20 years. He goes through what BUD/S was like, SEAL Training, and getting his fair share of beatings. Oh, by the way, I hate to read, but I didn't put this book down. I highly recommend it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very intense reading
Review: I was very disappointed in this book.I have read all the others books by "Seals" and this did not come close to any of them. Oh' it's entertaining for a passage or two but that's it.

This book also has a lot of padding. Details you or I don't care about.

This Seal team is nothing like the other's. How they weren't all wiped out is the biggest mystery and the real story in this book..

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Disjointed and disappointing
Review: One thing can be said about this SEAL is that he sure has a sense of humor.Of course,war isnt pretty.Its sexy.But really,unlike these other books I've read,like LRRP's Ranger,boy ,does that book ramble on and on about technical issues and stuff I've never been familiar with.But Rad was able to express himself not in a robot fashion,just brain washed to kill,but the human side of being a commando.It was very exciting and intruiging.I was totally involved in it.I have read some true combat novels that just don't get to details about what was going on.Some didnt explain how it felt in combat in true real time detail.Rad Miller takes you there.I hope to get his autograph some day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must read for Seal fans
Review: This is a very good book to read for Seal fans because Miller takes u into the minds of seals during their ops in vietnam.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Raw, Gritty, Wholly Believable
Review: This is an excellent book. What it lacks in writing style it makes up for with brutal honesty and relentless truth-telling.

Rad Miller's book is an excellent primary source, and a useful tool for someone who wants to learn the history of the Vietnam conflict. Bearing in mind that this is only one soldier's perspective, the book perfectly captures the spirit of the late sixties and early seventies, and goes beyond simply describing combat and training, but actually grapples with the issues of the war and chaos that reigned on the homefront. A must-read.
