    This book was a story about pilots that flew of an aircraft carrier and took the battle to the enemy. The Navy has a different language to describe their location. I found the story good because it describes the war in Vietnam was not fought by our military but by the congressional leaders in Washington.

    Eric, Cat, Kevin, I thank you for an informative, enjoyable reading experience.

    Just like the previous three, this book was well written. I've become huge fan of Eric Helm. Can't wait to read the next one.

    The books in this series are all phenomenal, giving a real idea of what the Vietnam war was like for our military personnel. I am particularly enjoying this series about the pilots, and will continue reading them.

    Hokey sure could have used a little editing in the technical area. I understand it's fiction but keep it a little real!
