The Hunter Killers: The Extraordinary Story of the First Wild Weasels, the Band of Maverick Aviators Who Flew the Most Dangerous Missions of the Vietnam War

https://www.amazon.com/dp/0062375121/?


A good book with some good detail on the origins of the Wild Weasels. Otherwise I found it to be rather disjointed, jumping from one incident to another. Still a must read for anyone interested in the Vietnam Air War and particularly the Wild Weasel mission.

Will check this out. Another very good one is «Bury Us Upside Down» about the Misty fast FACs flying Super Sabres over the HCM trail.


In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!
