Summary

A fresh, engaging, and relentlessly paced story of a Vietnam veteran's personal experiences and exploits while serving two tours of duty, one as a Cobra gunship pilot, in war-torn Vietnam. 

This is an entertaining audiobook that keeps you listening and leaves you eager for the next chapter. The author is a highly decorated veteran of two years in Vietnam who realized it was time to record his memories of those times. 

Unlike many works created about the war, Payne’s audiobook is a lesson of inspiration spiced with humor. It details the challenges he had to overcome and the lessons he had to learn.

An interesting listen

I really wanted to enjoy this book as I have read accounts from other services during Vietnam and other wars but never a gunship pilot and I was intrigued to find out what it was like for them. Throughout the book there were hints at interesting stories but it never really seemed to get going, events are just passed over with little detail and then more detail will be given to monotonous events instead.

Please note that I was provided with a free copy of this audiobook to provide a non-biased review
