Richard “Dick” Marcinko was born in 1940 and is a native of Lansford PA. He is probably known best by the name “Rogue Warrior” which is the character that he writes about in his Rogue Warrior book series.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Marcinko at one of his book signing tours. He seems to be exactly the same as he portrays himself in his books. He is best known as the man who created and commanded Seal Team 6. The general public really dosen’t have a good idea of what this Seal Team’s mission was, but I believe that his writings are a pretty close to accurate portrayal of some of the missions that he was involved in.
Mr. Marcinko has numerous awards for valor and currently serves as the CEO of Red Cell International.
I actually met Mr. Marcinko at the retail store where we sell rings for military personnel which includes Navy Seals. He seems to be an extremely down to earth individual.
