DAMN FEW
Making the Modern SEAL Warrior
A gripping memoir offering a never-before-seen inside look at how SEALs are trained from a Navy SEAL commander and one of the stars of the hit film Act of Valor.
Damn Few is a first-person look at how today’s SEALs are made. There has never been an authoritative, up-close-and-personal look at the training and forging of men into SEALs from a high-level insider like Lieutenant Commander Rorke Denver. With his heavy mission experience and training leadership role, Denver speaks with unparalleled knowledge and candor about how SEALs are selected, trained, and deployed and his own experience on the job. In 14 years as a SEAL officer, Denver has tangled with drug lords in Latin America, stood up to violent mobs in Liberia, and battled terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan (earning the Bronze Star with V for valor and other top commendations). Damn Few will offer the unique perspective of a high-level commander who has not only endured the harsh training and dangerous missions, but has spent years forging future SEALs and can authoritatively speak to the psychology of these warriors. Rorke Denver has served as flag aide to the admiral-in-charge and is now at SEAL headquarters in Coronado, California, where he has directed all phases of basic and advanced training that prepare men for war in SEAL teams. He is currently executive officer of the Navy Special Warfare Center’s Advanced Training Command. Telegenic and articulate, he is often asked to represent the SEALs with the media, the military and top government leaders. Denver starred with five other SEALS in the action-adventure film Act of Valor, which was shot with unprecedented cooperation from the Navy.
