Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrell

The main context of the book, Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrell is telling about their mission in Afghanistan to kill the Taliban.  So far, Marcus and his team have just arrived in Afghanistan, and they are getting ready for their mission. He keeps going back before the mission, and talks about his training and preparation for the mission. Marcus Luttrell is from Texas, and he was raised to be a Navy Seal. He passed his Navy Seals test and became part of a team. His brother is also a Navy Seal, but they do not work together. I am interested to see what happens once he starts his mission.

The book, Lone Survivor, by Marcus Luttrell presents a lot of real world issues. It’s about the war in Afghanistan and Iraq which we have been fighting in since the terrorist attack on September 11^th, 2001. The book explains how the Taliban and Al Qaeda are still fighting against the U.S. today. The U.S. is still fighting to keep the organizations from growing. These groups are responsible for numerous terrorist attacks, and they need to be stopped. That’s why Marcus Luttrell and his team, and many others, have gone over seas to stop these people who will do anything to get what they want.
