Adm. William H. McRaven on his new book, 'The Hero Code: Lessons Learned from Lives Well Lived'

Retired Navy Adm. William H. McRaven has written a new book called, “The Hero Code: Lessons Learned from Lives Well Lived.” McRaven knows about heroic deeds, having directed the 2011 U.S. Joint Special Operations Command mission that killed terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, and overseeing the team that rescued Captain Richard Phillips, whose ship was captured by Somali pirates in 2009. Now the best-selling author is focusing on everyday heroes he’s met in his travels, from the armed services to hospital ERs, to college classrooms.
