UDT/SEAL Stories of the 1960’s by Nick Nicholson

Nick's book has 30 stories and 20 photos. Half of the stories relate to specific events during the 60’s, including historic events such as Cuban Missile Crises, Project Mercury, Faith 7, and the Naval Pentathlon. Other stories center on the character traits necessary for training for life in the teams. I like his style of writing. It informs the general public about training and operations, and the quaint frog customs. There's lots of humor.

I bought it right away. Stayed up till two a.m. reading it. I couldn’t put it down. It brought back many memories. It is a great read no matter in what decade you served.
