Code Name: Johnny Walker by Johnny Walker & Jim DeFelice Book Summary

In this unforgettable memoir, the Navy SEALs’ most trusted translator—a man who is credited with saving countless American lives and became a legend in the special-ops community—tells his inspiring story for the first time.

As the insurgency in Iraq intensified following the American invasion, U.S. Navy SEALs were called upon to root terrorists from their lairs. Unsure of the local neighborhoods and unable to speak the local languages, they came to rely on one man to guide them and watch their backs. He was a "terp"—an interpreter—with a job so dangerous they couldn't even use his real name.

They named him Johnny Walker. They soon called him brother. Over the course of eight years, the Iraqi native traveled around the country with nearly every SEAL and special operations unit deployed there. He went on thousands of missions, saved dozens of SEAL and other American lives, and risked his own daily. Helped to the U.S. by the SEALs he protected, Johnny Walker's life is so remarkable that his tale reads like fiction. But every word of it is true.

For the first time ever, a "terp" tells what it was like in Iraq during the American invasion and the brutal insurgency that followed. With inside details on SEAL operations and a humane understanding of the tragic price paid by ordinary Iraqis, Code Name: Johnny Walker reveals a side of the war that has never been told before.

CNJH. A great view from "an outsider looking in" perspective on the war in Iraq. This book makes you feel grateful for being an American

Excellent read, excellent insight. Very good, inspirational read. The switch from dreaming of a better Iraq by helping US Forces to the harsh realities of making it happen were well transitioned. Glad he & his family made it out. Welcome.

Code Name: Johnny Walker. Excellent book, a page turner about the inner and outer man who is Johnny Walker, combat interpreter, devoutly religious and trusted by many teams of Navy Seals. He offers a unique view of the Iraqi War. You will learn and appreciate!

Code name: Johnny Walker. What a great read. Exciting, keeps you on the edge of your seat and you really come to like and respect the main character in the book. The fact that he was honorable, courageous, and humble in the midst of the worst humanity can throw at him is a testament to his inner self. I also loved his description of America in an immigrants eyes and he came and lives with his family for all the right reasons. My hat is off to you Johnny Walker,

An amazing story of….. Fortitude and bravery.

Wonderful!. One of the best I have ever read . Kept pulling me back to the next chapter.

Old ex Marine. This has been the most fascinating tome of any kind I've ever read. The world would be a far better place if there were more Johnny Walkers in it. Everyone should take the time to read this book. It will put your hat on straight, and remind us all why America is the greatest country in the world.

A must read... This books provides insight into the lives of ordinary Iraqis surviving constant war. J. W. is a family man who starts working with American troops to support his family. In getting to know the Seals, J. W. learns about American culture and values and eventually comes to the States. J.W.'s contribution to the Seals is admirable. This was a great read. I couldn't put the book down.

Code Name: Johnny Walker. What a wonder read and even more what a courageous man. I am so impressed with the Navy Seals and the people who assist them. God Bless all of them wherever they are and may Mr. Walker and his beautiful family live their dreams here in America!!!

Good read.. Reads quickly. Doesn't get bogged down with endless detail. Short, concise expressions conveying the actions, thoughts, and history of Johnny and his families, his and the SEALS.

Great Read!. Great book about a great man who made great sacrifices for himself and his family. May peace be with you “Johnny Walker”!

A must read. This book provides great insights into the war in Iraq from an Iraqi who did his best to save his country, while also supporting Navy Seals and other American forces.

Deserving of fame. Although a baby boomer, I’m much more familiar with the American perspective of Operation Desert Storm and the wars in Iraq, than I am with the Vietnam era. Aided by my 23 years working as a civilian with the Navy and Marine Corps, I found this book to be a vivid perspective of life from the Iraqi point of view and added color and validity to what I heard in the US news. I highly recommend this book.
