Hardcover with dust jacket. Condition: very good condition. Six decades ago, over the Western Front, Marine pilots were learning the grim game of combat flying - - "Although in great pain, Robinson continued to fire his machine guns while Talbot maneuvered his aircraft to throw off the Germans' aim. Hit twice more, in the hip and stomach, Robinson finally collapsed, leaving Talbot to face the German onslaught alone. The pilot turned his DH into the German attack and shot down a fighter with his own forward firing guns . The intrepid pair of flyers were awarded the Medal of Honor for their actions that day." - In the 1990s, the Marines are still as air-minded as ever, earning a unique place for themselves in aviation history. They have always excelled in the close support of infantry. In fact, every Marine aviator has been trained to be a rifleman first. This attitude has permeated the history of Marine Corps aviation and has led to the creation of the well-trained, purpose-built combat arm that goes to sea today. Additionally, more than any other service, the U.S. Marines have been quick to adapt and exploit helicopters to assist their infantry in battle. - In this, the first history of Marine Corps aviation, Peter Mersky teils about the pilots who carried on the Marine Corps tradition of "first to fight" from Henderson Field on Guadalcanal, the Chosin Reservoir in Korea, and the ships in the Persian Gulf. - Aircraft of the Marine Corps are illustrated in this story, from the very earliest days to the present, with more than 270 rarely seen photographs and the author's own drawings. - Peter B. Mersky has written several books and many articles on U.S. military aviation. He retired from the Naval Reserve as a commander, and is now the assistant editor for Approach/Mech, the Navy's aviation safety magazine. 383 p. many photos.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. David Bennett (map). (illustrator). Presumed First Edition, First printing. [14], 165, [11] pages. Includes Foreword by Sylvana Foa and Postscript. Includes chapters on The Village, River Sailors, The Journey, River Adventures, Tet, Survival, The Return, and Deliverance. Peter A. Huchthausen (25 September 1939 - 11 July 2008) was a Captain in the United States Navy and the author of several maritime books. He graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1962. Huchthausen served as a line officer in the destroyer USS Blandy during the Cuban Missile Crisis, enforcing the naval blockade and verifying the removal of Soviet missiles from Cuba. He then served two combat tours of duty during Vietnam War, commanding a patrol boat and unit of ten river patrol boats in combat on the Mekong River with the United States Navy's Riverine Force in the Mekong Delta. He returned to Vietnam as Chief Engineer in the destroyer USS Orleck, which provided naval gunfire support to Army and Marine forces operations along the Vietnam coast. He became a Soviet naval submarine analyst and served in anti-submarine warfare positions on the staffs of Commander, U.S. Naval Forces, Europe, the United States First Fleet, The United States Third Fleet, and the Commander in Chief, Pacific Command. He became the senior American naval attaché in Yugoslavia and Romania. Afterward, he became the chief of attaché and human intelligence collection operations in Western Europe for the Defense Intelligence Agency. Just before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Huchthausen served for three years in Moscow as the senior U.S. Naval Attaché to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. In 1967, Peter Huchthausen, a river patrol officer on Vietnam's Mekong River Delta, rescued a badly wounded Vietnamese child, Nguyen Thi Lung. He arranged for the girl's treatment and education, only to lose track of her when her town was overrun by the North Vietnamese during the Tet Offensive. After the war, Lung led a difficult and shadowy life under the communist regime, until she managed to get the attention of a reporter. The reporter published her story and then assisted her departure from Vietnam, while Huchthausen sponsored her entry into the United States. In alternating chapters, Huchthausen and Lung recall the experience of war on the Mekong River, and Lung relates the terrifying years that followed. Echoes of the Mekong casts a fresh light on the American involvement in Vietnam as it follows two people caught in the war from youth to maturity. Derived from a Kirkus review: A gem of a dual memoir in which a former US Navy riverboat commander and a young Vietnamese woman tell amazing, intersecting tales of war and peace. Huchthausen went to Vietnam in 1967, five years after graduating from the US Naval Academy. There he commanded a patrol riverboat on the Mekong River before, during, and after the cataclysmic Tet Offensive of 1968. It was an often harrowing tour of duty, but also one in which Huchthausen gained an appreciation for the Vietnamese people. The person he came to admire most was a ten-year-old girl, Nguyen Thi Lung, whose life he and his crewmen saved after she was severely wounded. Following her recovery, Huchthausen and several other Navy men adopted the little girl, paying for her rehabilitation and schooling. But when Huchthausen was transferred to another assignment, he lost touch with Nguyen. Seventeen years later, after years of desperate hardship and through an almost miraculous series of events, Nguyen was able to contact Huchthausen. In 1985 Nguyen was allowed to emigrate under Huchthausen's sponsorship to the US, where she lives today with her daughter. The ex-Navy man and the former peasant girl tell their truth-is-stranger-than-fiction stories extremely well in alternating voices. Huchthausen's portion relates a tale familiar to American readers of veteran-penned Vietnam war memoirs: an in-country war story with plenty of action. Nguyen's tale is less familiar but more instructive to American audiences. Her simple sentences b.
