"Warrior Soul, The Memoir of a Navy SEAL", Chuck Pfarrer, Random House, 2004. ISBN 0-89141-863-6.
In an age of embedded reporters and cameras capturing every aspect of battle, the public is getting closer to understanding what our troops experience in the trenches. In "Warrior Soul", Chuck Pfarrer, a former Assault Element Commander with the Navy’s ultra-secret SEAL Team 6, recounts the making of a SEAL— from the first weeks of exhausting training, to his covert missions all over the globe.
Pfarrer’s narrative touches on his personal as well as his professional battles. We follow him through a series of failed romances, including his first love (and ultimate heartbreak), a series of relationships during his time as a SEAL, and eventually two painful divorces.
Pfarrer writes frankly, “A woman I knew told me that I should have come with a warning label.” Eventually, Pfarrer is set up on a blind date, and meets the woman who is his wife now—the “formidable woman” who taught him patience, understanding, and how to love. He also recounts his more recent struggle with colon cancer. Given a thirty percent chance of survival-- he overcame the odds to live and love another day.
By delving into both his career in the Navy and his personal life, Pfarrer presents a humanized, honest memoir that truly illustrates the SEAL maxim: The person who will not be defeated cannot be defeated.
