In this episode of Mike Drop, former DEVGRU Operator Eddie Penney returns to the show and talks about his new book: Unafraid: Staring Down Terror as a Navy SEAL and Single Dad, BJJ and a myriad of other topics.
After two combat deployments with SEAL Team Two, Eddie tried out and was selected for DEVGRU, the elite of the elite and the tip of the nation’s spear in the fight against terrorist threats worldwide. Terrified of missing the action, Eddie became a breacher, the first man to the door on a target and one of the most dangerous jobs imaginable. Eddie endured five more deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan and Africa in his role, relishing in taking the fight to the enemy as he engaged in countless examples of extreme close-range combat.
