OverviewDuring World War II the U.S. military developed rudimentary capabilities to rescue downed aircrew members who ditched in the sea-a scenario that until then had usually amounted to a death sentence. Amphibious aircraft, originally designed for maritime patrol, were repurposed for search and rescue, augmented with pursuit and small liaison airplanes for searching and bombers retrofitted for dropping life rafts and other supplies. Another 22 helicopter rescue missions in Vietnam are added to this series of books with Volume 12. From every day rescue missions to the incredible, those rescue missions are in this book. With this latest Volume, the total is over 280 Vietnam Helicopter Rescues now documented in this series. Volume 13 Kindle book is due to be released in early May 2021.
