The book is sensitively and honestly written. Although the missions in 1972 were not as intense as before the war was winding down, they were non the less dangerous. But, this book is also about the role of Warrant Officers and their roles flying helicopters. I was one of the last Warrants in the Air Force when it its infinite lack. of wisdom, the warrant officer program was discontinued in the Air Force. This was probably a political decision. Now that drones have become an integral form of warfare, the Air Force has reinstated the warrant officer program to fly drones because the ‘real officers’ only want to fly fixed wing air craft. Soon, military strategists will discover that drone warfare. . Is the air war of the future.
