War for the Hell of It; A Fighter Pilot's View of Vietnam

Fast Eddie Tells It Like It WasWhat's it like to fight an unwinnable war in the air? What was the F-4 Phantom like to fly? How does Mach 2 feel? What happens when the Bad Guys are shooting at you? How do you kick an adrenaline addiction? In this Amazon bestseller, Lt/Col Ed "Fast Eddie" Cobleigh shares his  deeply personal account of a fighter pilot's combat tours, ones filled with moral choices and political idiocies offset by the thrill of flying a fighter plane. Well-crafted prose puts you in the Phantom's cockpit where Cobleigh displays the need to trust his reflexes, eyesight, aggressiveness, and survival instincts in the heat of aerial battle. This is a in-depth look into a combat fighter pilot's mind, not a linear account of the air war and is richer for it.
