Horner describes the strange rules of engagement dictated to the military in Vietnam from LBJ’s far-off Washington, where politicians often bypassed the advice of military leaders in a policy of “Graduated Pressure” that prolonged the war and caused casualties to mount. The duo portray an air-warrior culture shaped by the perennial possibility of death, whether in the exacting training or in combat. Bestselling novelist and nonfiction military author Clancy (A Guided Tour of an Aircraft Carrier, 1999, etc.) partners with Horner, a Vietnam fighter pilot who rose to general and commander of the Desert Storm air offensive, to narrate the Gulf War from the top commanders” vantage point. ![]()
