Vietnam War Memoir Gives Voice to Those Who Served with Honor

DALLAS, Dec. 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

COMING JANUARY 2015

"Black Cat 2-1: The True Story of a Vietnam Helicopter Pilot and His Crew" by Bob Ford

To Pre-Order Now: www.BlackCat2-1.com
Anticipated ship date December 15th.

Let's crank it up, kick the tire, and light the fire. In the Vietnam War, 2,197 helicopter pilots and 2,717 crew members were killed. Bob Ford was a Huey aircraft commander who flew over one thousand missions from July 1967 to July 1968 and survived.

Now Ford pays tribute to the valiant men he served with and to those who risked their lives for the troops on the ground in his praiseworthy memoir "Black Cat 2-1: The True Story of a Vietnam Helicopter Pilot and His Crew" (Brown Books Publishing Group) , a gripping page-turner that reads like a thriller, captures the humor of the men at war, and resounds with respect for those who served with honor.

"No braver men have taken to the field of battle than the pilots who flew the iconic Huey helicopters," says David Maurer, Special Forces Veteran and author of 'The Dying Place.' "Ford's account is a priceless contribution to the literary canon of that war."

Through his narrative style, Ford invites readers inside the cockpit of the Huey helicopters he flew when he and his men dared to protect and rescue troops on the ground to learn firsthand what Black Cat 2-1 really means.

For readers who served in Vietnam, Ford recreates the danger they survived. For others who knew little about this war, he offers a positive story about men who served, giving voice to those who fought but were silenced, and to those whose stories have never been told.
