America's most elite commando unit, the US Navy SEAL Team Six pulled off one of the most remarkable covert operations in military history when they infiltrated the secret hideout of Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan in the dead of night and killed the hated terrorist mastermind. Dennis Chalker was an original "plankowner" (founding member) of SEAL Team Six, and in One Perfect Op, he takes readers deep inside the remarkable world of America's Special Forces operatives. With an introduction by Richard Marcinko of Rogue Warrior fame, One Perfect Op describes, step by breathtaking step, one extraordinary SEALs mission, shedding fascinating new light on the training, the planning, the courage and the skill of these exceptional warriors.

Chalker’s unflinching memoir of a life in special operations covers:

  • Surviving Hell Week: The brutal, sleepless, and freezing crucible of BUD/S that forges elite commandos or breaks them completely.
  • Founding SEAL Team Six: A plankowner’s perspective on the formation of America’s legendary counterterrorist unit under the command of Richard Marcinko.
  • First Combat in Grenada: The intense, minute-by-minute account of Operation Urgent Fury and the rescue of Governor Sir Paul Scoon from his besieged mansion.
  • Covert Operations: Detailed narratives of real-world missions, from a high-stakes baby rescue to the secret operations of the elite Red Cell unit.
