The Pledge to America

As heard on The Dan Bogino Show and the Jocko Podcast

“One of the most powerful books I’ve read in a long time.” —Dan Bongino

Retired Navy SEAL Drago Dzieran takes readers behind the scenes of his incredible life, from an impoverished childhood in Communist-controlled Poland to his time as a political prisoner, to his twenty years as a member of the United States military’s most elite fighting force.

Everything I have, I owe to America—the greatest country in the world.

I have been fighting oppression and defending freedom my entire life. When I became a United States citizen, I felt it was my moral obligation to give back to this country and the people who had given me freedom. I wanted to serve my new country in the best capacity I could, so when the first Persian Gulf War broke out, I decided to join the military. During my Navy career, I performed over one hundred combat direct action missions in Iraq from 2003 to 2005.

My chance to live as a free man is only possible because of the ideals the founding fathers fought for and that have been carried forward to this day by Americans.

Every person has a voice, and every voice matters. I will continue to encourage others to get involved, stand up, and preserve and cherish the freedom and liberty we have in America.
