W. Bailey Jones, was recently inducted into the Order of Saint Michael
and the recipient of 62 combat decorations. He served his first tour
in Vietnam in 1965 as a member of the Cobra Platoon (Armed UH-1B
helicopters), with the 114th Aviation Company at Vinh Long in the
Mekong Delta. This book is a daily journal in which he covers all
aspects of his tour, from the boredom of standby to the first-hand
narrative of being shot at and being shot down on two separate
occasions.
Join him for over 900 hours of day and night flying over enemy
territory. Witness the action photos of Bailey's downed crew in the
process of being rescued while under fire. Read a translation of the
captured Viet Cong document naming the guerrilla soldier who shot
down Bailey's helicopter and learn what that soldier's reward was.
There are photos of developmental weapons for armed helicopters
(Super Snake and King Cobra) and several of formation flights over
the Mekong Delta. Of special interest are eight pictures that were
taken by Viet Cong and found on their bodies.
The book, includes over 65 photos and illustrations, is 215 pages,
soft cover with GBC or Perfect binding. Its index and glossary make
this journal a “Must” for collectors and scholars.
