About this audiobook
The Inside Story of America's Ultimate Warriors
When Osama bin Laden was assassinated, the entire world was fascinated by the men who had completed the seemingly impossible mission that had dogged the U.S. government for over a decade. SEAL Team 6 became synonymous with heroism, duty, and justice. Only a handful of the elite men who make up the SEALs, the US Navy's best and bravest, survive the legendary and grueling selection process that leads to becoming a member of Team 6, a group so classified it technically does not even exist. There are no better warriors on Earth.
Don Mann knows what it takes to be a brother in this ultra-selective fraternity. As a member of Seal Team Six for over eight years and a SEAL for over seventeen years, he worked in countless covert operations, operating from land, sea, and air, and facing shootings, decapitations, and stabbings. He was captured by the enemy and lived to tell the tale, and he participated in highly classified missions all over the globe, including Somalia, Panama, El Salvador, Colombia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. As a coordinator for several civilian SEAL training programs, and as a former Training Officer of SEAL Team Six, he was directly responsible for shaping the bodies and minds of SEALs who carried out the assassination of Osama bin Laden.
But to become a SEAL, Mann had to overcome his own troubled childhood and push his body to its breaking point--and beyond. INSIDE SEAL TEAM 6 is a high octane narrative of physical and mental toughness, giving unprecedented insight to the inner workings of the training and secret missions of the world's most respected and feared combat unit.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A true model for men. An eye opener. Goat lab bound!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am proud of this man. I thank him for his service and commitment to our freedom. I am a black woman and I feel that the seals fight for all American freedoms nomater the race. I didn't know any seals but I would like to thank them. I so love the stories and adventures. I am a baby boomer and I too heaven at my age will fight for right and freedom for Americans. I really would.....
Go Seals. Mr. Mann PLEASE keep weighting. Thank You. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved the look behind the curtain of one of the most elite military teams in the world along with the personal experiences. DEFINITELY a must read or listen if you’re interested in the audiobook.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5What is the point of writing a book when you beep out the good parts?
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Sections beeped out every few seconds at points. What’s the point? Ruined the book
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Horrible. I imagine the written version is better but given the redactions every few seconds, the loud piercing tone (to emulate a redaction) became obnoxious before I finished the first chapter.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5To slow. And the beep played each time something is redacted is very annoying.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book gave me am close up picture of the type of person who becomes a SEAL. Don Mann was a bit of a daredevil when he was a teen, and that didn't change when he became an adult. Luckily he found the Navy and the SEALs and pushed the boundaries with a team of elite soldiers behind him.
