Publisher Description

This book is a sequel to the authors first book about the F-4 and its pilots during the Vietnam War. It adds ten additional stories. These stories show the commitment to duty of the brave men who flew the F-4 and the pain that duty cost them.

As the ground war struggled for success in Vietnam, it became intensely clear that the skies had to be owned by the Allies for victory to have a chance. It was the F-4 and its pilots that made that possible. The author, a Phantom pilot himself, details intense stories of undaunted and valiant American pilots with their legendary fierce Phantom. These are personal stories of intrepid courage and self-sacrifice to get the mission donewhatever the cost. Fierce and unflinching battles to save friendlies and destroy a ruthless enemy are all recorded over forty years later. These are true tales of war at five hundred knots.

Outstanding

Having served as an Operation Management Officer, with the 35TFW (Wild Weasels)during Operation Desert Shield/Storm, this book was very entertaining. It also hit home on a personal note, since I served with Lt Col Tony Marshal, during his tenure as Chief of Wing Stan/Eval. Shared many a drink and good conversation with him.

Anyone involved with F-4s, whether flyer or non-flyer, officer or enlisted should read this book. I am sure the reader will recount their own personal recollections of their military service.
