Navy SEAL who survived 37 surgeries tells tale of redemption and shares how he overcame adversity
By Nick Givas | Fox News
Former Navy SEAL and Army Ranger Jason Redman's motto is "Lead always and overcome all." Those words became a way of life for the soldier-turned-author after he battled back from 37 surgeries and years of recovery to become one of America's most inspirational figures.
Redman joined the Navy in 1992 and spent 11 years as an enlisted SEAL. He was commissioned in 2004 as a SEAL officer, and in 2006, he graduated from U.S. Army Ranger School before deploying to Fallujah, Iraq.
In 2007, while commanding a mission to capture a high-value Al Qaeda target, Redman and his team came under heavy machine-gun fire, severely wounding him in the left arm and face.
