This USAF pilot's memoir "masterfully describes the progress of the war . . . [and] superbly chronicles the many close-support and interdiction missions." —Air & Space Power Journal
This action-packed account by an American pilot and squadron commander in the Korean War reveals just what it was like to fly the F-80 Shooting Star against MiGs and ground targets. Using the radio call sign of "Bully Able Leader," Lieutenant General George G. Loving flew 112 combat missions in five major campaigns from 1950–1951. This well-written, first-hand account of life in the cockpit of a USAF fighter jet will appeal to aviation enthusiasts and military history buffs alike.
"Valuable insights of the flying environment that earmarked this first war of extensive use of jet combat aircraft." —Col. Joe McCue, USAF (Ret.), Air Power History
