Well guys, my book officially releases today. Technically it's a memoir, but I prefer to view it as a nostalgia book that holds true to all of our experience and something we can all relate to and look back on fondly in the comfort of hindsight. The book also supports the Children of Fallen Patriots... an organization I think we can all get behind. Whether or not you have ANY interest in the book, please take a minute to read the following because its, in my opinion, extremely important to Americans across the nation:
[quote]Why? Because this has a greater purpose… Because this isn’t just a memoir book with MY life stories in it. It’s a shared message for people who deserve to have their story told. A chance for people to take a moment and gain more perspective on what some choose to sacrifice for their and our great nation’s behalf. Instead of whining about priorities, it’s a chance to take recognition and say, “You gave a career to the Kardashians for a sex-tape, but how many of you even know the name Dakota Meyer?” Instead of second-by-second updates of the Twilight split, that’s the real story people should know. One with substance, sacrifice, and unimaginable heights of heroism. Here’s a guy who asked the Oval Office staff to call back on his lunch break because he was busy working when they called to inform him he was receiving our nation’s highest honor, the Medal of Honor. Even more than the message, we have the opportunity to make a real difference for people who need it the most. One interview and book at a time, we’re raising money and awareness for the Children of Fallen Patriots and I’d be hard pressed to imagine a more purposeful cause.
Managed to get this book to sell out before it even officially released Monday night! That's something I'm extremely proud of. And if you aren’t interested, that’s fine. But at least consider the message and looking into helping the Children of Fallen Patriots. Let’s move deeper into an election year with a more prioritized nation.
There are purchase links all over the right hand side of my website and it's now in bookstores everywhere.

If you firmly share my message, then please help spread the word through social media or carrying the book around, but really, thanks again to everyone for a minute of your time regardless of what you take away from this.
