Acerca de esta escucha

Told through the eyes of current and former Navy SEALs, Eyes on Target is an inside account of some of the most harrowing missions in American history - including the mission to kill Osama bin Laden and the mission that wasn't, the deadly attack on the US diplomatic outpost in Benghazi where a retired SEAL sniper with a small team held off one hundred terrorists while his repeated radio calls for help went unheeded.

The book contains incredible accounts of major SEAL operations - from the violent birth of SEAL Team Six and the aborted Operation Eagle Claw meant to save the hostages in Iran, to key missions in Iraq and Afghanistan where the SEALs suffered their worst losses in their fifty year history - and every chapter illustrates why this elite military special operations unit remains the most feared anti-terrorist force in the world.

We hear reports on the record from retired SEAL officers including Lt. Cmdr. Richard Marcinko, the founder of SEAL Team Six, and a former Commander at SEAL team Six, Ryan Zinke, and we come away understanding the deep commitment of these military men who put themselves in danger to protect our country and save American lives. In the face of insurmountable odds and the imminent threat of death, they give all to protect those who cannot protect themselves.

No matter the situation, on duty or at ease, SEALs never, ever give up. One powerful chapter in the book tells the story of how one Medal of Honor winner saved another, the only time this has been done in US military history.

Eyes on Target includes these special features:

  • A detailed timeline of events during the Benghazi attack
  • Sample rescue scenarios from a military expert who believes that help could have reached the Benghazi compound in time
  • The US House Republican Conference Interim Progress Report on the events surrounding the September 11, 2012 Terrorist Attacks in Benghazi

Through their many interviews and unique access, Scott McEwen and Richard Miniter pull back the veil that has so often concealed the heroism of these patriots. They live by a stringent and demanding code of their own creation, keeping them ready to ignore politics, bureaucracy and-if necessary-direct orders. They share a unique combination of character, intelligence, courage, love of country and what can only be called true grit.

They are the Navy SEALs, and they keep their Eyes on Target.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Riveting, intense, and informative!

Great story, and a close look at the Bengahzi cover up! Any doubts about the Obama Administration and Hillary Clinton's failure to support our citizens. to save votes are dispensed! Great look at our nation's special forces!

Good book, but...Benghazi

Now that we have so much detailed information of what transpired in Benghazi, it seems like that section of this book is lacking in details at best, or factually inaccurate at worst, which has me questioning the validity of other stories herein. No reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater, I suppose.

Offers many great short stories into theSEAL Teams

this book offers many great short stories into the seal teams that are well-documented and other books.

the only thing about the entire book I didn't find interesting was the ending of it why they started to offer scenarios that could have played out.

however it's undoubtable a good. you get a handle on who the Navy Seals are and what they do

Great Account of The Seals

Looking for rationale to continue Benghazi talks?

As with most issues that surround the water cooler, the topic of who did or didn't do "what" when it comes to the attack on the American embassy in Benghazi, is factually supported by this engaging book. The author brings some true to life heroes out of the shadows and into the limelight. Similarly, those armchair patriots in Washington D.C. who sat idly by while terror unfolded thousands of miles away, are finally exposed through first hand details that only this read can deliver. A must for all Cold War historians
