People's Behavior in Navy Seal Dogs

In Navy Seal Dogs, there are many different sorts of human behavior. Because of its true story being in the Middle East, the Americans may act differently depending on person to person. In our perspective, Americans are friendly and assertive, but the Middle East views us as invaders or liberators, and that's because our views are biased towards ourselves, I think. And we views many of the people over there are terrorists because of 9/11, uncivilized people living in anarchy, as even said by the author, Mike Ritland, as he was briefly explaining to another one of his soldiers, and just fighting war of attrition to the US. And they views themselves as just protecting themelves from us. Mike Ritland's views of people's behavior is not biased towards another nation, rather neutral so that the readers can get the best experience from him while avoiding bias. What I wonder though is what we think, do you think it's better to read a book through a neutral point of view to get a better experience or just one point of view so that we can understand what one side thinks?

Character Changes In Navy Seal Dogs

In Navy Seal Dogs, the Navy Seal, Mike Ritland, has to go through some changes, which I can't believe what he has to do. Before he was a Navy Seal, his life was very different when it came to everyday life. I may have expressed this already, but training was harsh, he had to get out of his comfort zone every single day and adapt. The good thing, however, was that his grandfathers had served in World War II, and he wanted to carry on what his family had done before. When he first started, he never had experienced training K9's, and I don't think he ever had a dog.

Krista Ramsey Column

This column by Krista Ramsey summarizes why teachers should not be armed. Will teachers be able to do anything if they had a weapon?

One of the lines I think Krista Ramsey had best written was, "Any teacher, principal or staff member who is armed will carry an enormous level of legal and moral responsibility, not just in the unlikely event of a school attack but in the everyday, unpredictable life of a school." The impact this has on readers is that if teachers were armed, can they be trusted? Nobody knows if it will be the teacher that does the shooting.

I'd say Ramsey's writing style would be elegant. A line from the first column to support this would be, "The kid who used to walk home from school looking at houses and trees now rides home staring at a screen not much bigger than his hand. The teenager who used to research at the library or hang out with friends outdoors now does her studying and socializing in front of a computer in her bedroom."

Three questions I would ask Krista Ramsey would be have you experienced any of your columns in person? Where did you go to school at? And what made you write about what you write?

Best thing about Navy Seal Dogs

This is some of the best things that I have read about so far in Navy Seal Dogs by Mike Ritland in my opinion. One great thing that stands out in the book is that the knowledge and information you gained in this book comes from a primary source. Mike Ritland was a former Navy Seal and instead of getting information by someone else over a broad topic it won't get you the best experience and information by someone such as Mike Ritland and how he got to where he is.

Another great thing I find about this book is the first section of the book talks on his training and not just all of a sudden going into combat when you don't understand prior what happened. I mean I don't think many would succeed in the training that Mike had to go through. They were more tough and fierce and required more tough and fierce training than another section of the military such as the marines or the Green Baret.

This book does tell you many things you may not know and is a lot different from many other military stories. I would continue to read more books like these and hopefully someone else would too.
