"Wow! Hard to imagine having a loved one go through any sort of similar experience. Our men and women in uniform and their families are truly amazing to me."
"I read this book all the way thru in the same day. Gives a good account of the life of a helicopter pilot in Vietnam, not just the battle parts, but training and day in and out life as well."
"I just finished re-reading this book. I thought it was amazing the first time I read it almost a decade ago, but this time around it just didn't work for me. Maybe its stark depiction of the horrors Vietnam was more jarring to me the first time I read it; I'm not sure. This time around it seemed mostly wearying."
