(More customer reviews)Where was the editor? All of a sudden the angels became angles and whether became weather. Very distracting. Reviewing from my Kindle. Insufficient punctuation.

Transcons flight three seven departed from Los Angeles bound for JFK airport in New York. Sometime after they reached their cruising altitude, the first officer noticed the pressure dropping in the cargo hold below. Neither the captain nor the first officer was aware that a partially filled propane tank had been loaded into the cargo hold and was about to explode.Mayday, mayday Transcon flight three seven. Rapid decompression, explosion onboard. Descending to one-zero thousand. Clear all traffic below! These words echoed into the headset of the flight controllers at Lincoln Center and a desperate feeling came over them as they watched flight three seven descend on their radar screen.

Until Death Do Us part.
White Robe 6 calling Yellow One.... over.
This incredible true story is a roller coaster ride of courage under fire, valour, humility, personal struggle and faith set against the background of the Vietnam War.
The Author writes frankly about his thoughts, feelings, and actions as a Helicopter Gunship Crew Chief responsible for the safety of his Crew and that 'Band of Brothers', he transports to the fire of War.Or when returning to pull them out of the valley of death while enduring the maelstrom of live fire.
Delivering death to the enemy, and mercy when it is needed, he paints a vivid picture of the humanity of soldiers when faced with the specter of death.
The Author does not pull any punches when describing the carnage of war, and hand-to-hand combat, or wounded men screaming in pain, or those who lie silently in the sleep of death.
The window the Author opens enables one to see, smell and feel the 'Event Horizon', where life and death meet in an eternal struggle. He has tasted the exultation of living for one more day, and swallowed the bitterness of loss as his buddies fail to return or die before him. Death is his constant companion yet hysterical laughter erupts as a Viet Cong grenade turns out to be a very frightened rabbit that has jumped into their foxhole.
One can feel the relief and hysteria in the Bunker; and laugh along!
But yet in all the horrors of war he retains his faith and reliance on White Robe 6,the Call Sign for the God who holds the fate of every man and woman in the palm of his hand.
Finding time to encourage his family and girl friend in his letters home, he documents one man's experience of an unpopular war, and has written it down for posterity.
This record of one young man's experience of combat in the jungles of Viet Nam stands alongside with the exploits of Wingate-Orde and the Chindits of Burma.
The trauma of Vets is now recognized and the Author encourages those who suffer the trauma of unrelenting nightmares and flashbacks to seek out professional help.
This is an excellent book for anyone who wants to understand the war that tore a country apart and the steps one has to complete to reconcile with the enemy and the feelings of aloneness that one must overcome to be whole again.
The Author has certainly achieved his goal of educating the families of `wounded warriors' about the wounds that cannot be seen but are felt deeply, and in doing so educates another generation about the personal cost of fighting honorably for one's country.
A great and sobering read!
