From the Marine Corps recruiting office to the challenges of
Officer Candidate School, from stateside training as a new Marine
attack pilot to harrowing combat experiences during two combat
tours of duty in Vietnam, from 3500 hours of jet flight instructor
duty to three and a half years as a staff officer at Headquarters,
Marine Corps, from nearly passing out while a running a sub-three
hour marathon to looking back on it all after years of retirement,
Major Gibson's recollections continue to rivet the reader's
attention.
The stories are absent of technical jargon and yet put the
reader into the cockpit during moments of triumph as well as those
of momentary fear. Possessing an easy-going and comfortable writing
style, the author easily holds the reader's attention while
relating a wide variety of experiences. The stories provide a
valuable insight into the world of a junior officer serving as a
combat attack pilot as well as assignment as an Air Liaison Officer
to a battalion of Marines in the jungles of Vietnam.
