From the book's Intro:

While the SEALs hae the distinction of recently compromising the world's most insidious criminal and as a team are recognized and honored for their astonishing success in that mission, it brings into specific relief the number of units and teams in the Armed Forces who we, as a nation, rely on to defend our freedom. From Green Berets to Rangers, every branch of service is renowned for their Special Forces' Olympian skills and almost mystical abilities. And always, they anonymously perform these duties for the safety of their comrades and the citizens they protect.

<snip>

Which brings me to this--while the volume you hold pays tribute to the Nay SEALs, the proceeds from these works of the heart will benefit all military men and women. No one inolved in this project will profit except the Veterans Research Corporation, a non-profit foundation supporting medical research for veterans. The money this project earns will directly benefit our veterans of all branches, all units, all missions. God bless and keep them, one and all.


I 'volunteer' Dozer525 to read this thing and give us a report on these SEAL's getting in touch with their feminine sides for the benefit of the female members of this BB.

And so it goes...

Richard

Yeah, if SEAL's had a feminine side, they'd be touching it all the time

The charity is great but I did find the type of book to be quite hilarious. Not in anyway poking fun at where the proceeds will go.

I guess Tom Clancy was unavailable.
