Black Aces High: The Story of a Modern Fighter Squadron at War ReviewI just finished reading Black Aces High and thought it was outstanding. I read the entire book in one sitting and it was fantastic.
I was an F-18 pilot on that cruise and while the book concentrated more on the Tomcat than the Hornet, it accuratly portrayed the the missions and development of some fairly advanced tactics in SCAR.
The action in Kosovo was much more intese than Iraq.
In addition I was pretty close to most of the guys in the book and he really captured their personalities.
Sometimes the truth needs some embellishment to make an interesting story. However, this book was right on the mark, had no embellishment and was captivating.
Reading about the strikes in which I participated and the antics of squadron life brought back some great memories. Every squadron had a cast of characters that are pretty funny, but the VF-41 had a lot of larger than life personalities.
If you want an accurate portrayal of a squadron at war and the thoughts which pass through pilot's heads during combat, this is a great book.

Sincerely,
