Norling recounts a harrowing tale of valour, determination and occasional hard-bought success in this study of the Cagayan-Apayao Forces in the Philippines. Their bravery is unquestionable, but by September 1943 they were finished - victims of death in combat, capture by the enemy or disease.

The old battle tactics were useless for the U.S. soldiers in Vietnam, who were fighting a guerrilla war on foreign soil for the first time in American history. With the depth and honesty of Steel My Soldiers' Hearts, SEAL Warrior sheds light on the operations of the SEAL teams in Vietnam and shows how the SEALs laid the foundation for the modern guerrilla warfare that is used today.

With America again involved in guerrilla warfare, Seal Warrior honors the unique abilities, understanding, courage, and insight of these warriors who hope and fight for nothing less than peace.
