Publisher's summary

Former Army Ranger Kris Paronto, a survivor of the 2012 Benghazi siege that was subject of the book and movie 13 Hours, provides powerful motivational tools for surviving and thriving to bring discipline, motivation, success, and peace to listeners' lives.

Thousands of people have heard Kris "Tanto" Paronto speak about his experiences in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. But before he was a security contractor, Tanto was a US Army Ranger from Second Battalion 75th Ranger Regiment. Rangers are trained to lead by being pushed to their physical and mental limits so that they can perform against impossible odds in punishing situations. In The Ranger Way, Tanto shares stories from his training experiences that played a role in his team's heroic response in Benghazi. Being a Ranger is, by design, not for everyone, but anyone can use the expectations and techniques of Ranger culture to achieve personal victory.

In The Ranger Way, Tanto explains the importance of demanding excellence when you commit to improving your life. He shows you how to define your mission, set goals that are in alignment with your values, and develop a battle plan that will maximize your chances of success. You will learn why you should never quit and why that is different from never failing. Tanto uses his experiences in basic and Ranger training to explore how to deal with mistakes and disappointment like a leader, accept responsibility, and turn every obstacle into an opportunity for growth. You will learn why being of service to others and being willing to sacrifice will help you succeed and how the power of humility, strength, faith, and brotherhood will sustain you on the road to accomplishing your mission.

Rangers lead the way but Jesus is the only way!

Love it, excellent book. Its exactly what I look for on Audible. Great military book combined with life lessons.
Remember JESUS is the ONLY WAY!

Outstanding book

Very well written, not only as an autobiography, but also as a guide to overcoming adversity, as only a veteran can tell it.

Great and powerful story!

It was great to listen to Kris’s story and since it was read by Kris himself made the story more powerful!

Great inspirational read and audio.

I own the hard copy and audio version of this book. Great inspirational read and interesting story; applicable to all concepts of personal and professional life.

So many memories

I’m sure I’m not the only one that felt like if I was standing right there next to you as you were talking about Basic, Airborne, RIP and Ranger School. Eat years of my life 3/75th

I really love this book !

this is the second time I've listened to this book I think it's wonderful what and you get a lot out of it. I really admire the author and all the soldiers we have service in the USA! God bless them and God bless the USA!

A humble hero

This was an excellent book. When I saw that Tanto narrated the audio version I had to get it. The words mean so much more hearing him speak them. He's a good man and you can hear it in his voice.

The kind of honesty you need in your life!

Kris "Tanto" Paronto, delivers a honest view on what many of us veterans go through. So much that during many chapters I found his honesty was so real, that it pulled the very words from my soul as if they were my own. Finally, someone who gets it, I often thought. Inspirational, heart warming, touching, honorable words that I am sure will heal many more, as it has me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. God bless. Always forward!

Tanto is the man!

Great story about a terrible tragedy and the struggles of life. glad you are still on two legs Chris!
