When Superheroes Wore Police Uniforms

A five-year-old boy in 1960s France spent his days immersed in Superman comics, fashioning towels into capes and leaping from furniture, convinced he could fly. When his family moved to New York City, he secretly scanned the skyline for a caped figure soaring between skyscrapers. One day, he confessed this hope to his father, who pointed to a police officer and said, "Son, that's the man that protects New York City." That simple moment shattered a child's fantasy but sparked something far more powerful-the realization that ordinary people must save the world. This insight would guide William H. McRaven through 37 years as a Navy SEAL, where he witnessed both humanity's darkest moments and its most luminous triumphs. What he discovered challenges everything we think we know about heroism: the qualities that make someone extraordinary aren't reserved for the gifted few but are available to anyone willing to cultivate them.
