Blue Sky Warriors (HB) - Description
Since 2006 the RAF has provided major air support in
southern Afghanistan to help with reconstruction and to support the authority of
the Afghan government. Its personnel and aircraft have been very heavily
involved in everything from tactical reconnaissance and close air-support to
in-theatre airlift and air-refuelling.
Author Antony Loveless presents the
personal stories of a complete cross-section of the RAF's personnel deployed on
the frontline in Afghanistan - from the Air Commander in overall charge on the
airside, down through his section commanders, to the pilots, engineers,
loadmasters and all those on the ground who make it happen.
