Ed Rasimus straps the reader into the cockpit of an F-105
Thunderchief fighter-bomber in his engaging account of the Rolling
Thunder campaign in the skies over North Vietnam. Between 1965 and
1968, more than 330 F-105s were lost, the highest loss rate in
South East Asia and many pilots were killed, captured and wounded
because of the Air Force's disastrous tactics. The descriptions of
Rasimus one hundred missions, some of the most dangerous of the
conflict, will satisfy anyone addicted to vivid, heart-stopping
aerial combat, as will the details of his transformation from a
young man paralyzed with self-doubt into a battle-hardened veteran.
His unique perspective, candid analysis and the sheer power of his
narrative rank his memoir with the finest, most entertaining of the
war.
