of the Vietnam War in 1968 and 1969, the author flew 229
combat missions as a forward air controller for the U.S. Air Force under
the call sign of Nail 31. During both day and night, he piloted his
Cessna 0-2 into Laos, where he inserted Special Forces teams, conducted
missions with the CIA, helped rescue downed pilots, and called in air
strikes against enemy targets on the Ho Chi Minh Trail-in a war which
did not officially exist.
