Wilcox Robert K.
Scream of Eagles: The Creation of Top Gun - And the U.S. Air Victory in Vietnam
John Wiley & Sons 1990. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or dustcover clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 295 pages. Illustrated. From Publishers Weekly Wilcox's gripping narrative describes how a handful of Navy fighter pilots established a special school called Top Gun at the Miramar Air Station in California in 1968 and virtually revolutionized air combat training. Top Gun doctrine was fully validated when Randy Cunningham and his radar interceptor officer William Driscoll became the first American aces of the Vietnam war. By the time of the U.S. pullout in 1973 Top Gun's kill ratio was 12 to 1 compared with the Air Force's "dismal" 2 to 1. Wilcox The Shroud contends that Top Gun training forged the only clear-cut victory America won during the 1965-1973 war. The book features breathtaking accounts of aerial duels--Wilcox is very good at describing the three-dimensional world of dogfighting. His account of the school's ad hoc origins and the effort to develop ways of meeting the MiG challenge in Vietnam is equally exciting. Screaming Eagles ranks with the best of the books about air combat. Photos. Military Book Club dual main selection. Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information Inc. John Wiley & Sons Hardcover

Zacharias Karen Spears
Hero Mama: A Daughter Remembers The Father She Lost In Vietnam--And The Mother Who Held Her Family Together
William Morrow & Co 2005. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or dustcover clippings. Tight spine clean pages. NO writing marks or tears. 369 pages. Synopsis I don't remember Mama crying when Granny Ruth died but the day after she was buried Mama gathered together all the pillows in the house and went into the room where her mother's foot-pedaled sewing machine stood silent. Taking a pair of black-handled scissors she cut open the tops of Granny's pillows. Aunt Blanche asked Mama what in Jehoshaphat's name did she think she was doing cutting up all the pillows like that. Mama answered something about finding a crown inside one of those pillows Granny Ruth had fashioned from chicken feathers. "Sometimes" she explained "when a person sleeps on a pillow for a long time the feathers will mold together to make a crown ." It's the 1960s and nine-year-old Karen Spears is living in a trailer in middle Georgia. Her father David Spears was killed in the Ia Drang Valley in Vietnam and left behind three young children and a wife with a ninth-grade education. Hero Mama is the gritty searing and beautifully written story of what happened to this Southern family in the aftermath of a soldier's death. At first the widow Spears appeared to fall apart-turning herself into a beer-guzzling good-time girl while her children responded in kind. Eventually she recognized how much her children needed her and with mule-headed tenacity she earned her nursing degree and bought the family a real home fashioned from bricks rising above her own flaws to forge a better life for her kids. Now Karen Spears Zacharias pays tribute to this woman of guts and determination-her Hero Mama-who battled overwhelming adversity to pull her family up and make them proud of her and of themselves. Hero Mamais also the story of the South where a young girl grew up against an emotionally charged landscape of racism and bigotry where the daughter of a fallen soldier had to face the stigma of a war nobody wanted and where a family in crisis pulled together to achieve its own version of the American dream. It is a triumphant tale of reconciliation between a daughter and her father a daughter and her nation and a daughter and the people of Vietnam. It is a story for any daughter who has loved her father-and for any daughter who has had to discover how deeply her mother really loves her. About the Author: Karen Spears Zacharias's work has won dozens of writing awards. She has lectured at numerous Vietnam veterans' events; serves on the national advisory board of the Virtual Wall and the Orphans of War Foundation; is a contributing columnist for The Veteran the magazine for the Vietnam Veterans of America; and is a member of Sons and Daughters in Touch a national organization for adult children of servicemen killed in Vietnam. She lives in Oregon and Georgia. William Morrow & Co Hardcover

From the jacket: ''I want to give something back' the author insisted. His counselor at the Vet Center suggested 'You can give the guys in treatment hope. You know what PTSD looks like from both sides. You can tell these guys what it's like and what's different when you get beyond it.' Ron Zaczek had been a good crewchief. He was 'Zack' then: Marine Observation Squadron Three '66-'68; Phu Bai Dong Ha Khe Sanh; 393 missions in Huey medevacs and gunships; 19 Air Medals and a Bronze Star. He'd succeeded in college and in industry. Good marriage two fine kids. Then things began to fall apart. Too much anger depression. Thoughts of suicide. So many missions of mercy and death returning in nightmare and flashback out of control: 'You gotta get us out Scarface. We're burning up!' Marine crewchiefs never lost control! Control was survival and Zack was trained to survive. He entered the Vet Center Outreach Program as a last resort not believing it could help. Farewell Darkness is a probing personal look at war's psychological toll. Told with a vision of healing and hope Zaczek's story captures the passion and idealism he felt as a 19-year-old Marine new to war his pride in doing a job well his fear and perseverance in the face of enemy fire his grief over the loss of friends and the anger and sadness of his homecoming. The reader lives Zaczek's brutal honest journey through war as well as his treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder. Naval Institute Press hardcover
