As Brian "Iron Ed" Hiner, Navy SEAL Lieutenant Commander (Ret.)

I've known Coach for almost 40 years, and in his book, I got to relive our relationship and hear the stories of one of our unsung heroes who always served others with his heart and soul. In his words and in his kindness he will make you want to be a better person."
