Fire from the Sky is the first complete history of the most
decorated Navy squadron of the Vietnam War. Richard C. Knott tells
the dramatic history of the HAL-3 Seawolves, the U.S. Navy's first
and only helicopter gunship squadron of the Vietnam War. The
squadron was established "in country" to support the fast,
pugnacious river patrol boats of the brown water navy. Flying
combat-worn Hueys borrowed from the Army, the mission of the
Seawolves quickly expanded to include rapid response air support to
any friendly force in the Delta needing immediate assistance. The
Seawolves inserted SEALs deep into enemy territory, and extracted
them, often despite savage enemy opposition. They rescued friendly
combatants from almost certain capture or death, and evacuated the
wounded when Medevac helicopters were not available.
