Off the Field Podcast: U.S. Navy SEAL Rorke Denver

[OrangeXtreme]

Inside Lacrosse Founder Bob Carpenter speaks with 1997 SU lacrosse All-American and one of the most public faces of the U.S. Navy SEAL teams, Rorke Denver.

Denver has run every phase of training for the U.S. Navy SEALs and led special-forces missions in the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and other international hot spots.

He starred in the hit film “Act of Valor,” which is based on true SEAL adventures. His New York Times bestseller, “Damn Few: Making the Modern SEAL Warrior,” takes you inside his personal story and the fascinating, demanding SEAL training program he now oversees. In his second book Worth Dying For: A Navy SEALs Call to a Nation, which was released in April 2016, Rorke tackles the questions that have emerged about America’s past decade at war–from what makes a hero to why we fight and what it does to us.

Rorke can now be seen on FOX’s “American Grit.” The new series follows 16 of the country’s toughest men and women as they face a variety of military-grade and survival-themed challenges set in the wilderness and was recently picked up for a second season.

The Rogue Warrior books (Amazon product ASIN 0671795937 ) are very good as well. Great story in one of them on how there was a planned exercise to protect mock Air Force one. Marcinko and his team goes in the middle of the night instead of the agreed upon time. They easily take the plane. The protectors (I think Secret Service, but don't recall) get all upset because they weren't expecting it and it made them look bad. He said, that was the point. He got reprimanded, as I recall.
