Those '67 Blues

Those '67 Blues, is an enlightening action novel of U.S. naval aviators flying combat missions from an attack aircraft carrier on Yankee Station in the Tonkin Gulf during the Vietnam War. This day-by-day account of flight operations, and the heroic actions of men penetrating the hostile skies of well-defended North Vietnam, spans a two-week period during the angry autumn of 1967.

Feel the tension of flying a combat attack mission from the cockpit of an A-6 Intruder as, low and alone in the dark, you home in on a target. Understand the stomach-tightening dread as a surface-to-air missile tracks its target-you. Live the fear of being shot down, hunted, and held prisoner by the North Vietnamese. Experience the shivering adrenalin release that comes hours after a harrowing mission.

Meanwhile, the aviator's wives and children back home live through fears and problems of their own, during a war that few people understand, and many despise.
