Spine cocked; the dustjacket has a small piece missing at front flap, and some short tears and chipping. James Robinson Robbie Risner (1925 ? 2013) was a Brigadier General and a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force. During the Vietnam War, Risner was a double recipient of the Air Force Cross, the second highest military decoration for valor that can be awarded to a member of the United States Air Force, awarded the first for valor in aerial combat and the second for gallantry as a prisoner of war of the North Vietnamese for more than seven years. He was the first living recipient of the medal. Risner became an ace in the Korean War and commanded a squadron of F-105 Thunderchiefs in the first missions of Operation Rolling Thunder in 1965. He flew a combined 163 combat missions, was shot down twice, and was credited with destroying eight MiG-15s. Risner retired as a brigadier general in 1976. At his death, Air Force Chief of Staff General Mark A. Welsh III observed: "Brig. Gen. James Robinson "Robbie" Risner was part of that legendary group who served in three wars, built an Air Force, and gave us an enduring example of courage and mission success. Today's Airmen know we stand on the shoulders of giants. One of 'em is 9 feet tall. and headed west in full afterburner." Signed copies of his book are rarely offered. Signed by Author.…
