A true story set during the TET Offensive 1968.
Have you ever wondered what it's like to go to war in an unarmed aircraft, with no armor protection and with the jungle below capable of hiding a thousand enemy soldiers armed with AK-47s, to be shot at and able to do very little about it other than to dodge the bullets?
Told from the perspective of a group of young Australian Army recon pilots, whose job was to find the Vietcong in their jungle hideouts so that B-52 Arc Light Strikes could be planned, this story tells how the odds can suddenly turn against one and how luck contributes to survival.
