89: Dan Sheehan served twelve years in the Marine Corps. He flew helicopter gunships during the initial invasion of Iraq in 2003 and returned for a second tour with Marine Corps Special Operations Command, Detachment One in 2004. His personal decorations include the Bronze Star and two Individual Action Air Medals for actions taken in combat. After leaving active duty,Dan turned to writing to help him process his experiences in Iraq. His first book, After Action: The True Story of a Cobra Pilot’s Journey, won multiple awards and continues to inform readers about the human costs of war. His newly released second book, Continuing Actions: A Warrior’s Guide to Coming Home, identifies the challenges returning warriors have always faced, shows how gaps in our training leave us ill prepared to face them, and offers pragmatic solutions for how individual veterans can close these gaps themselves. When he’s not writing,Dan can be found surfing, spearfishing, flying a vintage OH-6A LOACH, or otherwise enjoying southern California with his wife, their two kids, and two pitbull mutts.
