Decorated Navy SEAL Lieutenant Jason Redman served his country
courageously and with distinction in Columbia, Peru, Afghanistan and
Iraq, where he commanded mobility and assault forces. But his journey
was not without its supreme challenges. He was critically wounded in
2007 when he was struck by machine-gun fire at point blank range. During
his intense recovery period Redman posted a sign on his door, warning
all who entered not to "feel sorry for [his] wounds." His sign became
both a statement and a symbol for wounded warriors everywhere. Vivid and
powerful, emotionally resonant and illuminating, The Trident traces the
evolution of a modern warrior, husband, and father, a man who has come
to embody the never-say-die spirit that defines one of America's elite
fighting forces.
