Many outstanding air force pilots and aircrew members share their
first hand combat experiences, providing ninety-two firsthand
accounts of air missions flown against the most heavily-defended
targets in North Vietnam. The primary mission of the United States
Air Force during the period of 1965-73 was to concentrate on air
strikes.
Read the personal accounts of the air force aircrews that
clearly demonstrate undaunted determination, indomitable courage,
professional skill, and extraordinary heroism-despite the most
intense air defenses faced by a modern air force and the
restrictions imposed on the pilots of the United States Air Force
(and Navy) by the U. S. government.
Limitations were regularly imposed upon aircrews during the
war. During the Rolling Thunder campaign, (1965-1968) tactics and
target selections were decided at the White House, with no airman
in attendance. President Johnson boasted on national television,
"They can't even bomb an outhouse without my approval." If the air
war in Vietnam was all in vain, it is the policy makers, not the
warriors, who must be held accountable. Gain a new understanding of
the Vietnam War with Those Who Were There: Ninety-Two True Stories
of Combat Missions Flown over North Vietnam.
