TGS 223-The First SEALs Podcast with Patrick K. O’Donnell

Patrick K. O'Donnell's new masterwork, First SEALs: The Untold Story Of The Forging Of America's Most Elite Unit, tells a tale so amazing you might not believe it actually happened.

Because, at every stage of his new book, Mr. O'Donnell keeps topping the "OMFG!" moments of true history with yet another mindbending event in the formation of the Maritime Unit--the fledgling WWII group that pioneered the special forces concept.

The book features an adventure-addicted dentist, Hollywood idol Sterling Hayden (who changed his name to join the OSS), inflatable surf boards, and NFL kicker of note, and a cast of characters worthy of a major motion picture.

The only real question this book leaves uncovered is "Why is Patrick K. O'Donnell wasting his valuable time on The Tom Gulley Show?"

We're not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, regardless of the answer. And neither should you. Get First SEALs immediately. Thank me later.
