White House Situation Room, May 1, 2011 (Pete Souza/White House)
A Navy SEAL used the pseudonym Mark Owen to write an upcoming book on the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. The book is called “No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama bin Laden.” Pre-order here.
It gets released on Sept. 11th.
The SEAL, who Fox News surprisingly outed, is likely gonna face another tough mission – avoiding legal trouble. The Pentagon has not vetted the account or authorized the book.
Not completely sure how I feel about this. It feels kinda wrong for a SEAL to write a book and profit from the mission while the others who were with him that night gain nothing. They should have written it together or not at all.
Still, I will probably buy this book.

I’ve heard about this upcoming book from the news. It’s super interesting and very, very intriguing. I also feel the same way that “it feels kinda wrong for a SEAL to write a book” about this one but still I will also “probably buy this book.” Great post!
