A Navy Seal who participated in the operation that killed Osama Bin Laden has chosen to use the pen name Mark Owen for his book titled No Easy Day. According to the publisher the book gives, "blow-by blow narrative of the assault, beginning with the helicopter crash that could have ended Owen’s life straight through to the radio call confirming Bin Laden’s death,” and is “an essential piece of modern history.” Because the author is using a pseudonym he will be in disguise during interviews promoting the book. It is sent to be released on Sept 11, 2012. I will definatley be checking it out!

This would be a very interesting book to read! i bet it would be a good book to especially coming form a guy who experienced it all! I have kind of wanted to know about the day bin laden was killed and just the details so i bet this will be a good book!
I think that is really cool! I need a book to be intersted in, &this book might just be that. I am wondering what all happend that day.
I will also be checking out this book. I love reading war books. I read a magazine article about killing Bin Laden it gave a diagram to what happened.
I would definitely like to read this. This book will most likely become a part of history.
It'll be interesting to hear about how he was really killed and about the people who made it possible. It's even better that it's written by one of the navy seals that took him down.
I personally can't wait for this book to come out. After how secretive the goverment was about the whole thing, I couldn"t help but be curious about the whole thing. As you may already know he is most likely forced to use a pen name for national(and personal) security reasons.
I would be very interested in reading a book like this! Ive been curious about what happened. It will most likely be added to my collection!
I think that it's a good idea to write a book about it. I bet a lot of people, including me, are wondering what happened that day. I'm surprised that they are letting him write about it though.
wow, this would be a really interesting book to read. I'm sure many people will be reading it because lots of people would be interested in knowing what all really went down during the operation.
