A History of Army Aviation: From Its Beginnings to the War on Terror

…spellbinding history…, the how, what, when, where and why…some never told and certainly not always understood. This is a story that has begged to be told, …with sources and substance heretofore missing… Historians, military scholars, and aviators, …will rely on this work for years. Carl H. McNair, Jr., Major General, U.S. Army (Retired) “This is worth a good read…a welcome and long overdue history of Army Aviation.” Joseph L. Galloway, senior military correspondent, Knight Ridder Newspapers and co-author, We Were Soldiers Once…and Young Soldiers, scholars, and aviation enthusiasts alike can learn much from this comprehensive examination…. …successfully blends lively and insightful historical narrative with astute analysis. …unfailingly honest assessment of…contributions to our national defense. Carol Reardon, Pennsylvania State University, author of LAUNCH THE INTRUDERS …tightly written and focused…traces the aviation branch from its inception through two world wars, the loss of a major portion to the new Air Force, …up through its current role…. …required reading for anyone who desires to understand…Army aviation. Darrel Whitcomb, author of The Rescue of Bat 21, and Combat Search and Rescue in Desert Storm …tells the whole story concisely by addressing seven key themes. …crisp prose and well-chosen illustrations…. This old ground-pounder owes his life to…brave crews of Army birds. Henry Gole, Ph.D./Colonel (ret.), author of Soldiering
