Tom Clancy Presents Act of Valor by Dick Couch

The Navy SEALs have been fighting terrorists around the world for over a decade. And for all that time, the Bandito Platoon SEALS from SEAL Team Seven have been on continuous combat rotation. Now they have drawn a shipboard assignment off Central America--an easy day.

But for a Navy SEAL, the only easy day was yesterday.

In a powerful story of global anti-terrorism inspired by real life missions, Act of Valor combines stunning combat scenes, up-to-the minute battlefield technology, and heart-pumping emotion for the ultimate action adventure.

Act of Valor takes you deep into the secretive world of today's most elite, highly trained group of warriors. When the rescue of a kidnapped CIA operative leads to the discovery of a deadly terrorist plot against the United States, a team of SEALs is dispatched on a worldwide manhunt. As the men of Bandito Platoon race to stop a coordinated attack that could kill and wound thousands of American civilians, they must balance their commitments to country, team, and their families back home.

But each time they accomplish their mission, a new piece of intelligence reveals another shocking twist to the plot, which stretches from Chechnya to the Philippines and from Ukraine to Somalia. The widening operation sends the SEALs across the globe as they track the terrorist ring to the U.S.-Mexico border--where they engage in an epic firefight with potentially unimaginable consequences for America.

In Vietnam, DICK COUCH served as a Surface Warfare Officer and SEAL Platoon Commander after graduating from the Naval Academy in 1967. Dick has had a particular relationship with the US Special Operations Command, which has allowed him to photograph the special operations training facilities used by SEALs, Army Special Forces (Green Berets), Rangers, and Marines. Tom Clancy's Op-Center series has him as a co-author. He taught ethics at the United States Naval Academy and is frequently called upon to speak on questions of character, moral battlefield conduct, and the training and deployment of American military special operations units. He and his wife Julia live in central Idaho.
