Read if you are interested how Naval Aviation works.

A very good education on what goes in to being a Naval Aviator on deployment.
It is also a must read to understand the Warrior that is Jake Grafton as he progress in his Career. I truly loved the small asides on what it takes to be a true professional warrior in a peace time Navy run by Bureaucrats.
Benjamin L. Darcie does a GREAT job in the Narration he captures the moods perfectly!
My only complaint is as with others is the third act, I would have much rather had the story move to Australia and back home. This is because I enjoyed the story of his inner struggle and daily life, and challenges of Carrier Aviation a lot more than fighting Pirates.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
