Table of ContentsReviewsPraise for To the Limit To the Limit is a first-person journey into the grit, grimness, and chaos of war, told by a helicopter hero in a way that nails the feel, the mood, and the talk of air cavalrymen in battle. --Robert F. Dorr, author of Chopper: A History of American Military Helicopter Operations from WWII to the War on Terror This is the real thing: helicopter combat at its birth. No wonder Army helo drivers were among the most decorated aviators of the Vietnam War. Tom Johnson truly shows us what the rank-and-file Huey crews experienced. --Peter B. Mersky, author of From the Flight Deck: An Anthology of the Best Writing on Carrier Warfare and U.S. Marine Corps Aviation: 1912 to the Present Always leery of superlatives in book reviews, I feel compelled to use them in describing Tom Johnson's To the Limit. It is an intense, compelling, gut-wrenching narrative--by far the best account of helicopter warfare I have read. --William Smallwood, author of Strike Eagle: Flying the F-15E in the Gulf War and Warthog: Flying the A-10 in the Gulf War Author InformationTom A. Johnson was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal (with five Silver Leaf Clusters), and the Bronze Star for his Vietnam War service.
