"Meet my hero--Eric Greitens. His life and this book remind us that America remains the land of the brave and generous." -- Tom Brokaw

Like many young idealists, Eric Greitens wanted to make a difference, so he traveled to the world's trouble spots to work in refugee camps and serve the sick and the poor. Yet when innocent civilians were threatened with harm, there was nothing he could do but step in afterward and try to ease the suffering. In studying humanitarianism, he realized a fundamental truth: when an army invades, the weak need protection. So he joined the Navy SEALs and became one of the world's elite warriors.

Greitens led his men through the unforgettable soul-testing of SEAL training and went on to deployments in Kenya, Afghanistan, and Iraq, where he faced harrowing encounters and brutal attacks. Yet even in the deadliest combat situations, the lessons of his humanitarian work bore fruit. At the heart of this powerful story lies a paradox: sometimes you have to be strong to do good, but you also have to do good to be strong. The heart and the fist together are more powerful than either one alone.

"If you're restless or itching for some calling you can't name, read this book. Give it to your son and daughter. The Heart and the Fist epitomizes -- as does Mr. Greitens's life, present and future -- all that is best in this country, and what we need desperately right now." -- Steven Pressfield, author of Gates of Fire

"Vivid and compelling . . . a great read." -- Washington Times

Great jeans from Amazon's own brand. Comfortable pricie and fit.
Size: 30W x 30L, Color: Stone Medium Wash
I was surprised to find that Amazon has its own line of men's jeans. I rthought I was taking a chance buying the pair that I did. They turn out to be a terrific buy. I highly recommend Amazon's men's jeans. I intend to buy more.

Extremely temporary solution to pants
Size: 33W x 32L, Color: Stone Medium Wash
Very comfortable and good fit. But...they're extremely fragile. I bought three pairs one after the other as each failed. Typically only got a month or so of wear-time before a giant rip would appear along a major seam. Great if you need a quick/temporary pair of jeans. Terrible if you plan to use these jeans for more than a couple of wash cycles.

Perfect fit and stretch, durable and priced right
Size: 38W x 34L, Color: Tinted Dark Wash
Great pair of jeans for the money! Fit is spot on. They’re durable and comfortable as well, there’s a slight stretch to them making them easy to work and move around. My wife tells me my butt looks good in them too! The selection of colors is very cool. If you’re looking for some budget, slim fit jeans, you’re in the right place!
