Synopsis
Between the train ride South to Pensacola for Naval Aviation flight training to retirement from the Marine Corps as a Lieutenant Colonel twenty years later, Neil experiences a career mixed with adventure, humor and danger. His dive-bombing destroys an important heavily defended bridge in North Vietnam, a major part of the supply line to the Ho Chi Minh Trail, but his aircraft is hit with anti-aircraft fire. He flies twenty-five miles on fire to reach the Gulf of Tonkin and ejects when the cockpit becomes an inferno. Shot at, while dangling in the parachute, from enemy gunboats, cannon fire from the beach at his raft and swimming among sharks, he wonders if he will see another sunrise.
