Lone Survivor pt 6

This book is getting even more and more interesting. I have read pages 250 to 300 and they continued to intrigue me. The last time I blogged the Seals had just started the fire fight with the Taliban. Since they were boxed in and the gun fire was so heavy the only choice they had was to fall back, which really was falling off the mountain side. Marcus and Mikey fell uncontrolled down the mountain losing a lot of their gear, but somehow able to hold onto there guns. As soon as they landed, although banged up and bruised a little bit they both continued to some under heavy fire. Not to much later, Axe and Danny came sliding down the mountain. The first to get hit by the raging bullets was Danny. The thumb on his right hand had been blown off. They found new positions of cover, but it wasn't long before the Taliban had them pinned down again. The only choice again was to fall back no matter what the Navy Seals they couldn't get the hire ground. Danny was shot again, by this time he had been shot four times, even though mortally wounded he continued to fight. Marcus called it a brand of valor he had never seen before. Danny was fighting for our freedom and was possibly dieing to do it. It continues to hit me that these men were fighting for our lives and our freedom.
