More about Lam Son 719
This historical campaign occurred in February and March 1971 and involved the 101st Airborne Division- an entire fleet of 750 helicopters flying in and out of Laos-supporting South Vietnamese forces. More helicopters were shot down in battle and sustained damage than any other period during the Vietnam War, making it the costliest period of helicopter warfare in history to date.
Behind the Book
This book is not a nonfiction war biography or a military memoir. Few books have been written about helicopter warfare as historical fiction. The book is authored by Larry Freeland, a Vietnam War veteran, who wanted to reflect the many experiences and stories from his personal history and that of his fellow aircrew and soldiers.
