New Book Section Online
When taking on any research project, there is always a dependence on previous work by authors who know the subject well. With the case of Saving Hunter, it is a reliance on the stories of real F-105 pilots, forward air controllers, and special forces operating in Southeast Asia, illustrating the hardships of the deadliest air war known to man.
Understanding the story behind Lt. Hunter is divided into two halves: the USAF side of the bombing campaign against North Vietnam and his rescue via the Air Commandos and Air America. Each half has its own thrilling twists and turns, from jettisoning bombs at 500 mph to trudging around in remote mountainous villages in the Plain of Jars.
As the research aspect expands with Saving Hunter, I would like to share the books that are read through the new Book Section under the Resources tab.
