"Puts you right in the cockpit with your Finger on the trigger. A Truly Awesome Read; and a climax that Hollywood couldn't invent."---Andy McNab, Author of Immediate Action<BR><BR>The Apache AH Mk 1 is the deadliest, most technically advanced helicopter in the world---and the toughest to fly. In the cockpit of an Apache, hands, feet, and even eyes need to operate independetly. As strong as a tank and equipped with two Rolls-Royce RTM-322 engines, the helicopter is nearly impossible to shoot down. And thanks to a powerful array of weapons and cameras, the Apache helicopter can sport prey from miles away---and kill the enemy with a flick of the finger.<BR><BR>In 2007, Ed Macy's Apache squadron was dispatched to Afghanistan's notorious Helmand Province, with the mission to fight alongside and protect the men on the ground by any means necessary. When a marine goes missing in action, Macy and his team are the Army's only hope of bringing him back alive. With a soldier strapped to each side of two gunships, they must land in the heart of Jugroom Fort, a Taliban stronghold, and come face-to-face with hordes of their unrelenting enemy. What follows is a breathtaking rescue, unlike any the world has ever seen.<BR><BR>"Macy...does for the Apache helicopter's gunships what Dan Mills did for the infantry in Sniper One: he puts readers in the cockpit of an aircraft that requires great skill and attention to keep in the air."---Publishers Weekly<BR><BR>"Macy is the real deal. Nobody could write that powerfully about combat, or amotionally about the men fighting with him, unless he has been at the gunship's controls."---Sergeant Major Dan Mills, Author of Sniper One<BR><BR>"Thoroughly Absorbing...A real find for students of modern warfare."---Booklist
