Coffee or Die Magazine - Special Edition 22

It's that time of year ' the editors at Coffee or Die Magazine have selected some of our best stories from the digital library to bring you the second annual special Black Rifle Friday edition.

Inside, you'll find one of the most-read stories at coffeeordie.com ' 'The Legend of Chief Shannon Kent,' which tells the story of one of the first women in special operations. There are also first-person accounts from Garret Anderson, a Marine Corps veteran who spent a memorial Thanksgiving in Fallujah; and Jariko Denman, a former Army Ranger who got boots on the ground following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Nolan Peterson's essay on the meaning of the US flag around the world will make you even prouder to be an American, and you'll even learn a thing or two about class gifts from Navy SEALs.
