Sobre IBD

A superb Story! Not only does Butch Peace offer you a good, long look into the Vietnam War (the Helicopter War), he invites you to see and feel for yourself that war from the cockpit on the venerable UH-1 'Huey' helicopter as a 'Robin Hood Warrant Officer Combat Assault Aircraft Commander. This well-written book takes you way beyond the boring bravado of a blood and guts barroom battle cry. Instead, Butch invites you to the events and adventures that lead a kid from South Texas to become a wartime helicopter pilot with a one-way ticket to Vietnamand no promise of return. 'One Year' is locked and loaded with happenstance, humor, somber musings, bumbling junior officers, fearsome fights, Army chow, inevitable loss, and always hoping to make it back home. This is an authentic tale. I should know, I was 'Slinky', a Polecat Warrant Officer Aircraft Commander, a hundred miles east of and a Few Months after Butch flew home.'
