About book The Last Run: A True Story Of Rescue And Redemption On The Alaska Seas (2004)

As other reviewers have pointed out this book starts out slow as the author builds the stories of the characters. Since it is a true story it is very very true life and you wonder if you want to dwell into the characters personal lives that much. The last 2/3 of the book it all comes together with a plot twist not normal for true life.As a former UH-60 helicopter crew chief in a medevac unit I have never read a better account of the issues and emotions of high stress aerial rescues. He managed to capture that awful fear a helicopter crewmember feels upon the sound of "rotor droop" in the flight parameter death zone.If you read this book you are reading an account that is just about as accurate as it can get for aerial rescue.
