Krista’s description of her son’s childhood gives the reader insight into Charlie’s tremendously active early life with an exposure to travel and activities not experienced by many in their lifetime.
Charlie was an inquisitive, bright and daring young man, athletically gifted with a drive to excel in everything that he attempted. He had tremendous potential to succeed in whatever he pursued, and he chose to be a Navy Seal and serve his country. I, for one, am grateful for his service, and of his sacrifice, and the positive influence and example that he set for all who knew and served with him.
I have read all of Colonel Will Merrill’s books. As with the others, this one is a personal glimpse into the life of a remarkable young man and his family. It’s hard to put down and I appreciate him sharing with us this extraordinary life of this incredible young hero.
