This story of the life and career of Brigadier General Heimie Aderholt is both exciting and revealing. It provides a pretty good look behind the scenes in air-dropping agents behind the lines and secret flights over enemy territories. It's good to read about the sacrifices of so many in the unconventional special operations wings. There sure was a lot more going on than we ever read or heard about. Good book. - Richard Croft [TOP] |
