Service: A Navy SEAL at War
Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell returned from his star-crossed mission in Afghanistan with his bones shattered and his heart broken. So many had given their lives to save him-and he would have readily done the same for them. As he recuperated, he wondered why he and others, from America’s founding to today, had been willing to sacrifice everything-including themselves-for the sake of family, nation, and freedom.
In Service, we follow Marcus Luttrell to Iraq, where he returns to the battlefi

Review from a Navy SEAL Sniper Instructor,
Marcus was a student of mine when I was the Course Manager for the Naval Special Warfare Sniper program (Navy SEAL course). I also put his brother Morgan and Axelson through the course a few months prior to him showing up in 2001.
All were great students. I still remember his twin brother Morgan shooting me that steely eyed Texas glance as he said, “you going to take care of my brother when he comes through?”, “of course”, I said. I wasn’t let down either.
I remember him being a bit hard headed at times, especially during the stealth and concealment phase. Most Texans I’ve met are like this in a good way, including our mutual friend Chris Kyle. Marcus was a great student and we became friends during the process, even though he got me quite drunk after graduation. My head still hurts thinking about it.
I’m still waiting for the hard copy of “Service” his wonderful wife Melanie is sending me. I couldn’t wait, I’m impatient like that, and bought the eBook for my iPad. I’m a fast reader and don’t normally read SEAL books but this was one I read in one sitting.
Marcus takes you through the rest of his career in the SEAL Teams and shares some excellent stories from Iraq that you would never hear about if his story was not told. Most importantly, he selflessly features other heroes and their stories.
All gave and some gave all since 9-11.
Marcus is a great story teller and you need to buy this book.
Looking forward to that joint signing soon Marcus. Great to see you and your family representing yourself and the SEAL Teams in an exemplary fashion as always.

|AN EMOTIONAL WAR STORY THRILLER,
SERVICE: A NAVY SEAL AT WAR by Marcus Luttrell is a gripping, captivating and at times, emotional true story about an American hero and heroes, fighting the war on terrorism.
Team 5 Navy SEAL Luttrell returns home after being deployed to several hot spots around the world, including Afghanistan. We, as civilians, can’t even imagine what these young men and women have to endure and witness. He came home with PTSD, physically and emotionally a broken man.
This book questions why the US is so eager to send their sons and daughters off to fight in foreign countries, to kill and be killed. From Afghanistan, to Iraq, this young man shares stories of months of combat, special operations, rescues, sacrifices he and his others made, and the death of many team members.
This is a chilling war story that will leave you in awe. It is not for the feint at hearts as it is quite emotional at times. Highly recommended.
In closing, I salute all those young brave men and women who are currently serving or have served. Blessings.

|Love this book!!! add it to your must read list,
So I just finished reading Service (in less than 2 days) and was not at all surprised to find it captivating and emotionally charged from the very beginning with his beautiful dedication to Morgan and Mel all the way through to the final acknowledgments. He cleared up so many questions that I had following the first book and also explained some things I didn’t know that I didn’t know (if that makes sense). The many amazing stories of his fellow soldier’s valor and heroism were awe inspiring and heartbreaking and I thank God that we have such brave men serving our country. I loved hearing more stories about his friend Jon Tumilson and the amazing man and warrior that JT was, and I also thought the chapter by Amy and all the wives was very sweet and a poignant reminder of the many sacrifices that our military families make. I’m hoping that hearing these incredible stories of bravery will inspire everyone to do all we can to give back to our troops and their families since we owe them so much. Thanks so much to Marcus Luttrell for writing this wonderful book and may God bless him, his family and all those who served and continue to serve with valor.

|My Sebo Is One Outstanding Investment!,
Took my old Eureka into the local shop for repair a few years ago and the owner said it would cost $50 to fix it, but it wouldn’t be worth the money. Instead he showed me a Sebo. I liked it but about croaked when he told me the price.
After wavering for the next 45 minutes, I finally bought it and brought it home. My wife about croaked when I told HER the price…
Since that day, hardly a week has gone by that someone in the family doesn’t mention how nice our Sebo is. With 4 humans, 3 cats and 2 dogs, there’s always a lot of dirt to pick up. Yet our floors continue to look like new because this little sucker gets it all.
The two best parts: it’s super easy to change the bags and filters and clean the brush, and the filters really work. No more dust flying around while vacuuming.
I purchased this service box after owning the Sebo for three years, so I’m way late in changing out the filters. Doesn’t seem to have hurt anything, though.
And, I just found out my local shop (where I bought the vacuum) sells them for less than Amazon. Shouldn’t surprise me because his price on the vacuum was lower than I could find it online.
Buy a Sebo! (And buy locally if you can!)

|Easy to service my Sebo X1 with this service box. But here are a few TIPS:,
Everything fit perfectly, but the instructions were barely adequate. I would definitely pay close attention to how you take things off so you can put everything back the right way–especially with regard to the little metal clip that holds the tube-shaped microfilter in place. Also, the exhaust filter housing can be found only by releasing the handle catch and laying your Sebo down flat–like you would do if you were going to vac under a bed. The exhaust filter housing is in the base part of the Sebo directly under the filter bag housing. I didn’t know what the sealing strip was about, but once you locate it under the base near the roller, it’s pretty easy to see that you just slide the old one out and slide the new one in. One good tip I got from someone online: You can store one of the green plastic filter bag caps inside the filter bag housing below the bag where it will be handy to cap a full bag when you’re changing it.

|well it is for cleaning,
Works great much easier than going to a vacuum store and having them try to sell you other stuff you might not need.
