I recently finished reading Lone Survivor, which chronicles Marcus Luttrell’s experience in the Navy Seals while on deployment to Afghanistan.  It was a fascinating look at the heroism of the Navy Seals who are fighting the war on terror.

 

 

By the way here is a picture of the Mark 12 sniper rifle described in the book.  This photo is from one of the guys at Sniper’s Hide Forums who gives a good explanation of the specs.
