Publisher's Synopsis

A seemingly routine flight of four Massachusetts Air National Guard jet fighter planes becomes a fight for life when a series of incidents causes three of the four to come down, not on dry land, but in different parts of the Atlantic Ocean.
This story focuses mainly on the ordeal of one of the pilots as he fights to stay alive in the air and in the angry ocean. It would not be, however, the only battle with danger he would face in his 20 years of flying Uncle Sam's planes, virtually all of it in peacetime.

All combat aircrew members and most of those performing weekend warrior part-time flying jobs often faced far more danger than most would imagine. Colonel Robert H. Sprenger lives today because of superb Air Force training, a strong inner strength and sometimes pure luck. Hopefully, his tales will demonstrate those points.

Those who serve in the National Guard or in one of the Reserve Forces of the U.S. Military are frequently giving not only of their time to be citizen-soldiers but, in many ways, are facing danger and the specter of death as part of their sense of duty to their country. Think of them and honor them as you read this story.
