Mekong Rescue - Paperback

by David B. Freeman (Author)

Army Warrant Officer Eric Mohr arrived in Vietnam intent on saving lives as a medevac helicopter pilot. When his brother-in-law Steve Cooper, a Navy OV-10 Bronco pilot with the acclaimed Black Pony Squadron is shot down and taken prisoner by the Viet Cong, Eric's mission becomes a personal one. The Navy is pulling out of the Delta and appears to be giving up on Steve. When Eric can't get help through conventional channels, he finds help through an unlikely network of personal friends who embark on a dangerous rescue mission in the U Minh forest of South Vietnam. Plenty of flying, plenty of action and a fresh look behind the scenes at the lives of men and women during the Vietnam War.
