No Easy Day by Mark Owen

For the first time anywhere, a first-person account of planning and execution of the Bin Laden raid from inside the US Navy SEAL team who carried out the mission to kill the terrorist mastermind. This book puts readers inside the elite, handpicked twenty-four-man team known as SEAL Team Six as they train for the important mission of their lives.

Mark Owen is a former member of the US Naval Special Warfare Development Group, commonly known as SEAL Team Six. In his many years as a Navy SEAL, he has participated in hundreds of missions around the globe, including the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips in the Indian Ocean in 2009. Owen was a team leader on Operation Neptune Spear in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on 1 May 2011, which resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. Owen was one of the first men through the door on the third floor of the terrorist mastermind's hideout, where he witnessed bin Laden's death. Mark Owen's name and the names of the other SEALs mentioned in this book have been changed for their security. Kevin Maurer has covered special-operations forces for nine years.
