Media reviews

“One of the finest combat memoirs I have ever read, from any air force in any war.”—Dan Ford, Wall Street Journal

“You can almost smell the jet fuel and gunpowder. You attack the world's fiercest defenses at 500 knots and share the ultimate thrill of hurling yourself against almost impossible odds—and winning.”—Jack Broughton, author of Thud Ridge

“A story that reflects the bravery of the men who flew over enemy territory in a perilous time.”—The Baltimore Chronicle

“[A] modern-day Red Badge of Courage”—John Darrell Sherwood, author of Fast Movers: Jet Pilots and the Vietnam Experience
