Acerca de esta escucha

The untold story of the most important rescue mission not just of the Vietnam War, but the entire Cold War: one American aviator who knew our most important secrets crashed behind enemy lines and was sought by the entire North Vietnamese and Russian military machines. One Navy SEAL and his Vietnamese partner had to sneak past them all to save him.

At the height of the Vietnam War, few American airmen are more valuable than Lt. Colonel Gene Hambleton. His memory is filled with highly classified information, and he knows secrets about cutting-edge missile technology the Soviets and North Vietnamese badly want. When Hambleton is shot down behind enemy lines in the midst of North Vietnam's Easter Offensive, US forces place the entire war on hold to save a single man hiding among 30,000 enemy troops and tanks. Airborne rescue missions fail, killing 11 Americans.

Finally, Navy SEAL Thomas Norris and his Vietnamese guide, Nguyen Van Kiet, volunteer to go after him on foot. Gliding past hundreds of enemy soldiers, it takes them days to reach a starving Hambleton, who, guided toward his rescuers via improvised radio code, is barely alive, starved, and hallucinating after 11 days on the run.

In this deeply researched untold story, award-winning author Stephan Talty describes the extraordinary mission that led Hambleton to safety. Drawing from dozens of interviews and access to unpublished papers, Saving Bravo is the riveting story of one of the greatest rescue missions in the history of the Special Forces.

Poor choice of Narrator

I couldn’t get over how it seemed like the narrator needed a nap. Poor choice. I think it’s probably a good book but had trouble getting past the narration.

The real story of Bat 21

Loved the behind the scenes of the story, but I cringed every time the narrator would read the word Da Nang.

All the blanks filled in!

Amazing detail and a fantastic story that fills in the blanks that Hollywood glossed over.

Truth is GREATER than fiction

Epic story and true none the less. If you are looking for some inspiration in your own fights, this is the place, from Gene Hamilton to Tom Norris, this book is full of real life heros and heroics that eliminate the need for fiction all together.

Outstanding

Very exciting and true adventure with very real hero's as opposed to the fictional ones. This is a relatively mild introduction to the horrors of war.

I wish this current generation had a greater appreciation for the courage and personal sacrifices that have been made that make our current comfortable lifestyle possible. We have not experienced war directly and we take so much for granted. Despite occasional hoodlum riots, we can't imagine the possibility of the devistation bombing and foreign invasion would bring to our cities. I can only hope our prodigy will have the fortitude to maintain their freedom. I wish everyone would be able to read/hear this story with some compression of the message it conveys.

Great story

this book is a must-read. I'm glad I listened to this book instead of only watching the Hollywood movie bat 21. The movie I personally believe that the desgrace to the men and women who risk their lives to rescue Gene hambleton.
