Cheating Death: Combat Air Rescues in Vietnam and Laos by George J Marrett
The colourful characters and daring rescues of downed pilots engaged in the Secret War in North Vietnam and Laos are vividly captured by one who was there, in some of the most exciting stories ever written about aerial combat. Sandy Marrett and his squadron colleagues flew some of the most dangerous air missions of the war as on-scene commanders, in charge of rescuing the scores of US Navy and Air Force pilots shot down over North Vietnam and Laos.
Upon graduation from Iowa State University George Marrett entered the US Air Force (USAF) where he was trained and served as a jet fighter test pilot before being sent to Vietnam. He has had numerous articles published in various aviation magazines.
