Leave No Man Behind: The Saga of Combat Search and Rescue Tapa dura - 2008

Author George Galdorisi flew U.S. Navy search and rescue in the early 1970s, manning Vietnam-era helicopters with pilots from the initial cadre of navy CSAR teams. His flying career continued for over a quarter-century, culminating with state-of-the-art CSAR helicopters aboard U.S. aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf. He has written about naval combat operations in a wide range of articles in professional journals and has published two successful novels of naval combat: The Coronado Conspiracy and For Duty and Honor.

He now works as a Navy tactics analyst and a flight simulator instructor training today\u00b9s rescue crews.Tom Phillips began his U.S. Navy career flying attack helicopters in Vietnam, including POW rescue operations with Navy SEALs.
