OUSTANDING!!!

The account of Capt. O'Grady was of personal interest to me. I deal with much of the same equipment that he entrusted his life with. His Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape instructors must be quite proud of him. As well as his Life Support Equipment Maintainers. Great job to all involved in the rescue mission!

I wish there were more books like this out there!!

I'm so impressed with our military. The men that flew into Bosnia to rescue Scott O'Grady are true hero's. This book goes into a lot of detail on how our armed forces work together in crisis situations. It's awesome!!

This is a very accurate and detailed book.

Lance Cpl Williams, my cousin, was involved in this rescue mission. He stated that this book was accurate, and very well told. I myself, in the military, enjoyed reading this book because of the heroics displayed by all who took part in the rescue.

This was a GREAT book!

Moment-by-moment, we follow EVERYONE involved in the Captain Scott O'Grady rescue: thoughts they had, actions they took, decisions they had to make, as the situation unfolded, it is told from the standpoint of the commander, the men on the ground, the pilots of the 40 assorted types of aircraft on the rescue mission, and of course the man on the ground waiting and hoping for pick-up after days without food in enemy territory. This book held me riveted--you truly have a sense of being there, and certainly have a greater appreciation for all the "cogs in the wheel" it takes to pull off a mission successfully.
