Men of Honor: Story of Carl Brashear

Before he became the U.S. Navy’s only amputee master diver, he relied on innate courage so he could stare down death.

Before he became one of only seven enlisted men whose oral histories are profiled by the U.S. Naval Institute, he had already inspired other men of honor and courage.

This is the story of a man who rose above harsh and humble beginnings to excel in the most extraordinary ways. It is the story of a man who succeeded despite racial prejudice and physical limitations. It is the story of a man who believed in his dream - and made it happen.
