"That Others May Live" is a mantra that defines the fearless men of
Alaska's 212th Pararescue Unit, the PJs, one of the most elite
military forces on the planet. Whether they are rescuing citizens
injured and freezing in the Alaskan wilderness or saving wounded
Rangers and SEALS in blazing firefights at war, the PJs are the
least known and most highly trained of America's warriors. Never
Quit is the true story of how Jimmy Settle, an Alaskan shoe store
clerk, became a Special Forces Operator and war hero. After being
shot in the head during a dangerous high mountain operation in the
rugged Watapur Valley in Afghanistan, Jimmy returns to battle with
his teammates for a heroic rescue, the bullet fragments stitched
over and still in his skull. In a cross between a suicide rescue
mission and an against-all-odds mountain battle, his team of PJs
risk their lives again in an epic firefight. When his helicopter is
hit and begins leaking fuel, Jimmy finds himself in the worst
possible position as a rescue specialist - forced to leave members
from his own team behind. Jimmy will have to risk everything to get
back into the battle and bring back his brothers. From
death-defying Alaskan wilderness training, wild rescues, and
vicious battles against the Taliban and Al Qaeda, this is an
explosive special operations memoir unlike any that has come
before, and the true story of a man from humble beginnings who
became an American hero.
