I saw that on Amazon and was thinking about hitting the "buy" button.

Post a review after you've read it.

Its a very honest view from a fighter pilot.

Ken Bell retired as a Brig. Gen. and it took me a while to figure out that he had the book published
after he died. The same guy who flew as Maj. Merle Dethlefsen's wingman when he won the CMH and also flew as Col. Jack Broughton's wingman over Hanoi also talks about getting a "Dear John" letter from home and getting rolled in Bangkok.
This isn't your typical "There I was at 20,000 feet.." book.
