Reseña del editor

When pilots undertake a hazardous operation, they have an "escort" with them--fighter planes that go faster and higher and stand ready to swoop down and rescue any downed aircrew. This began in WWII, with the Luftwaffe, and has now become standard operating procedure. In thrilling detail, see how these rescuers accomplish their missions--in WWII, in Vietnam, in the Falklands, the Gulf War, and more.
