Apache - Ed Macy
Here is the thing, the war in Afghanistan was and is very real. A war of our time and with social media and 24-hour news you can have all the information you could ever need. But what that does not give you is the reality of what is required, to be a part of that war on many levels. Apache by Ed Macy is one man’s story, a story of a man who thought his career was over through injury, who seized another opportunity to serve in the Army Air Corps flying one of the most technically advanced helicopters in the world. The author takes you through what is needed to be the best of the best and to fly the Westland Apache AH MK1 from training and testing and all the anxiety that entails to the brutality and stress of making decisions in a war environment culminating in an astonishing mission. For those that have not read the book I will not spoil that. This is a book about reality. This is not a chest out, banging, I am a warrior type of boo...
