Palace Cobra - By: CD, 27 Oct 2007
A really good read, I was worried as I had not read his first book, but there was no need, this one centres on his second tour, flying the F4, & goesin depth into the workings of an F4 unit over Vietnam. Rasimus also talks about his time off, which puts a different turn on normal aviation books. I really enjoyed this book, could not put it down, & already have his first book on order..!

A real insight into combat over North Vietnam. - By: P. E. Davies, 01 Jul 2006
This is one of the best narratives covering the Linebacker period of the Vietnam war from a USAF fighter pilot's viewpoint. Ed Rasimus is extremely informative on tactics, combat procedures involvedin flying the F-4E Phantom & on the routines of life at Korat RTAFB. He writesin a clear, entertaining way, explaining (for example) the complexities of the Wild Weasel mission with great lucidity. An excellent follow-up to his earlier F-105 book, 'While Thunder Rolled'.
