This is the story of the life of Michael Monsoor, who gave his life on September 25th, 2006, when he was KIA. This story talks about his struggles with asthma and standing up to bullies. It is also a story of perseverance because he failed BUDS training once already and then passed and excelled. It is very touching because he stayed overseas to allow another SEAL to go home for the birth of their child. During this extension is when Michael gave his life to protect his teammates. He has received numerous accommodations, including the medal of Honor, silver Star, kids named after him, and even a ship! I really enjoyed the story. This was a 4 and 1/2 star read for me.
