In these pages, O'Neill describes his idyllic childhood in Butte, Montana; his impulsive decision to join the SEALs; the arduous evaluation and training process; and the even tougher gauntlet he had to run to join the SEALS' most elite unit. After officially becoming a SEAL, O'Neill would spend more than a decade in the most intense counterterror effort in US history. For extended periods, not a night passed without him and his small team recording multiple enemy kills--and though he was lucky enough to survive, several of the SEALS he'd trained with and fought beside never made it home. The Operator describes the nonstop action of O'Neill's deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, evokes the black humor of years-long combat, brings to vivid life the lethal efficiency of the military's most selective units, and reveals firsthand details of the most celebrated terrorist takedown in history."--Jacket. 600 10 O'Neill, Robert,|d1976- 600 10 Bin Laden, Osama,|d1957-2011|xAssassination. 600 14 Bin Laden, Osama|d1957-|xAssassination. 610 10 United States.|bNavy.|bSEALs|vBiography. 610 10 United States.|bNavy.|bSEALs|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Special operations (Military science)|zUnited States |xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Special operations (Military science)|zPakistan. 650 0 War on Terrorism, 2001-2009|vPersonal narratives, American. 650 0 Afghan War, 2001-2021|xCommando operations|zUnited States. 650 0 Afghan War, 2001-2021|vPersonal narratives, American. 650 4 Afghan War, 2001-|xCommando operations. 650 4 Afghan War, 2001-|xPersonal narratives. 650 4 War on Terrorism, 2001-2009. 650 4 Special operations (Military science)|xHistory|y21st century. 650 4 Special operations (Military science)|zPakistan. 651 0 Butte (Mont.)|vBiography. 655 7 Personal narratives.|2lcgft 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft 914 MID.b25190040 914 FARM244652 994 92|bCKE
