Rocky, I read both your books and e-mailed you my thoughts. I read Dan's early writings on this forum and told him the same thing. I covered Scouts, so I knew Dan's mission well. I had no knowledge except rumors about FOB's and SOG missions, so your books opened up my eyes a little. In our unit, a down bird scrambled every available ship, and nobody got left, although not always alive. When I read about the single ship FOB FAC scouting missions in your outfit, it gave me a little chill. I guess you can get used to anything, but that was a lonely way to fight a war. Thanks again to you and Dan for doing it and putting it all to paper. MLP
