The book was written in first person from Marcus' point of view. There were times when he addressed the reader directly with comments such as "trust me." Throughout the book the reader understands what the mission was, how dangerous it was, what it took to become a Navy SEAL, and what the political situation on the battlefield is really like. Warding off prejudice, the author was very clear that the Taliban fighters had very different beliefs than some of the other people in Afghanistan.
