Subj: Obama, Pentagon Threaten Legal Action Against SEAL Author
Pentagon Mulls Legal Action Against SEAL
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon's top lawyer has informed the former Navy
SEAL who authored a forthcoming book describing details of the raid that
killed Osama bin Laden that he violated agreements to not divulge military
secrets and that as a result the Pentagon is considering taking legal action
against him.

The general counsel of the Defense Department, Jeh Johnson, wrote in a
letter transmitted to the author on Thursday that he had signed two
nondisclosure agreements with the Navy in 2007 that obliged him to "never
divulge"
classified information. Johnson said that after reviewing a copy of the book,
"No Easy Day," the Pentagon concluded that the author is in "material
breach and violation" of the agreements.
Johnson said the department is considering pursuing against him "all
remedies legally available to us."

'No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama bin
Laden'
The Pentagon and Obama administration are furious that a Navy SEAL has
broken his silence to reveal what happened on the day bin Laden was killed . .
. and the role played by President Obama in that remarkable mission.
For the first time anywhere, a SEAL who was part of the bin Laden mission
gives his first-person account of the planning and execution of the bin
Laden raid . . . and his own confrontation with the terrorist mastermind —
including what he witnessed during bin Laden's final moments.

>From the streets of Iraq to the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips in the
Indian Ocean, and from the mountaintops of Afghanistan to the third floor
of Osama bin Laden’s compound, operator Mark Owen of the U.S. Naval Special
Warfare Development Group — commonly known as SEAL Team Six — has been a
part of some of the most memorable special operations in history, as well
as countless missions that never made headlines.
No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama bin
Laden puts readers alongside Owen and the other handpicked members of the
24-man team as they train for the biggest mission of their lives. The
blow-by-blow narrative of the assault, beginning with the helicopter crash
that
could have ended Owen’s life straight through to the radio call confirming
bin Laden’s death, is an essential piece of modern history.
In No Easy Day, Owen also takes readers onto the field of battle in America
’s ongoing War on Terror and details the selection and training process
for one of the most elite units in the military.
Owen’s story draws on his youth in Alaska and describes the SEALs’ quest
to challenge themselves at the highest levels of physical and mental
endurance.
With boots-on-the-ground detail, Owen describes numerous previously
unreported missions that illustrate the life and work of a SEAL and the
evolution
of the team after the events of September 11.
In telling the true story of the SEALs whose talents, skills, experiences,
and exceptional sacrifices led to one of the greatest victories in the War
on Terror, Mark Owen honors the men who risk everything for our country,
and he leaves readers with a deep understanding of the warriors who keep
America safe.
