TSL:SFN - Riding the White Bull w/ Jack Ratliff
Jack Ratliff — retired Navy SEAL, lawyer, and law professor — and the author of Riding the White Bull: The Making of a Navy SEAL. Rather than focusing on the battlefield, Jack's memoir traces the formative years that shaped his character long before elite service began — from a West Texas upbringing to fighting forest fires, to the grueling world of the UDT, the direct precursor to today's SEALs. It's a book about how discipline, identity, and leadership are forged under pressure — written with clarity, reflection, and a dry sense of humor.
