On Navy SEALs - Operation Just Cause 1989

In case someone thinks I hate everything Navy SEALs - I do not. Here is a classic frogman story of the destruction of Manuel Noriega’s yacht during Operation Just Cause from our book SEALs: The US Navy’s Elite Fighting Force, co-authored with Chris Osman, a former Marine and SEAL from ST3. Published by Osprey Publishing in 2008 - right during the fucking economic meltdown - thanks Wall Street! It was the first book, I think, on SEAL Teams at war during the Global War on Terrorism and also some chapters covering the 80s. It is a great book about the guys and Chris Osman did an amazing job making this happen - without him this book would not have existed. It is about the teams, not the individuals unlike so many of the SEAL books out there. When I knew Chris he was a stand-up guy and I think he still is but we parted ways over Chris Kyle (American Sniper) and also Brandon Webb (Red Circle) - but those are other stories. Here is the US cover and the Japanese version below - excellent - followed by the great frogmen mission! You can still buy the book https://ospreypublishing.com/seals

I am not condoning wars but I have written about individuals at war.

Those guys are wearing masks - take a hint people… Masks save lives.
