"Razor 03 reads like a fast-paced action novel. Alan Mack gives us
the deepest dive I've ever read about the fantastic life of a Night
Stalker. It is as much a history lesson as it is a personal
confession about the extremes of life in our nation's most esteemed
aviation unit, TF 160. Razor 03 is the reminder we all need to
know: our nation is safe because of the sacrifices and commitment
of these brave men and women."--Matt Eversmann, New York Times
Bestselling Author of "Walk in My Combat Boots"
"A gritty, inside look at life as a Night Stalker - from intense
combat missions
overseas to the tragic costs that lifestyle can impose on a
family."--Sean Naylor, author of the New York Times bestseller
"Relentless Strike"
"Razor 03 - is an incredible story hardly believable had I not
witnessed it first hand."--Command Master Chief (SEAL) Britt K.
Slabinski, United States Navy (Ret.), Medal of Honor Recipient
"A truly extraordinary book by a phenomenal pilot and warrior. Alan
Mack was in the thick of every sensitive, harrowing, high-stakes
operation in the decade following 9/11. His account of combat from
the cockpit of the world's most exceptional special ops aviation
unit and of the toll it took on him and his family is forthright,
riveting, raw, compelling, and inspirational. Readers will not be
able to put Razor 3 down." --General David H. Petraeus, US Army
(Ret.), former Commander of the Surge in Iraq, US Central Command,
and Coalition Forces in Afghanistan, and former Director of the CIA
