Synopsis

The job of the all-volunteer Rangers was to find the enemy, observe him, or kill him--all the while behind enemy lines, where discovery could mean a quick, violent death. Whether ambushing NVA soldiers or rescuing downed air crews, the Rangers demanded--and got--extraordinary performance from their troops. Sequel to The Eyes of the Eagle.
