"This is an inspiring story of courage and sacrifice--one hell of
an exciting true war story!"
--Kenn Miller
Author of Tiger the Lurp Dog
On 17 June 1970, in Mondol Kiri Province, Cambodia, the five men of
Long-Range Reconnaissance Patrol (LRRP) Team 5-2 were about to halt
for the day. Night was coming, the skies were dark, and so were the
men's thoughts--they'd just found freshly dug NVA bunkers inside a
scrub-brush tree line and their position was not secure.
As they carefully searched for better night lager, they learned the
hard way that they had walked into an ambush kill zone: NVA fire
quickly downed two men and wounded two others. In minutes, Team 5-2
had been transformed from the hunters to the hunted. They had no
radio comms with their headquarters and had just two rifles and
fifteen magazines of ammunition.
Two men were down, but the team was not out. MIA RESCUE is the
story of Team 5-2 and the heroic and ultimately successful attempts
to rescue them despite extraordinarily bad weather and an angry and
aware enemy.
"Seldom can an author stimulate emotions, from the taste of fear to
sweaty palms to the feeling of relief when the mission is over, but
Jorgenson does and much more. If the reader was never in combat, he
will feel like a Nam vet when he finishes this book."
--Jerry Boyle
