Summary: Return With Honor
Review: I am a sixth grader at Seminole Middle School. My reading teacher reccomened this book to me and it is the best book I have ever read.It is about an F-16 pilot named Scott Ogrady who is shot down in the skies over Bosnia,and survives with the will to survive and the help of god.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic Story of Survival!
Review: I bought this novel to get inside the mind of a soldier, but I got so much more! This is a fast-paced true life thriller of one man's determination to survive in the most hostile environment. Even though I knew Captain Scott O'Grady would survive, I still turned the pages eagerly anticipating what would happen next. I laughed(about the cows) and cried(when he visited the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier)This is an excellent novel that will linger in your mind long after you've turned the last page.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspirational
Review: I found Return With Honor to be inspirational and exciting. I have great respect not only for Capt O'Grady's bravery, but his values - something missing in today's society. This book is one of the best I have ever read - a must read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An easy read.
Review: I found this book in my mail one afternoon after work, and within 11/2 days I had read it all. Even though I am not a native English speaker, I found it easy to read.

Scott O'Grady writes about his flying career and about his ordeal in Bosnia. There is very little about his personal life, but you do get to read a little bit about his Irish-Italian background, and about how his family experienced the six days when he was missing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: And on the 6th day, a miracle
Review: I had the honor of meeting Scott O'grady and hearing his story first hand. My company had brought Scott in as a motivational speaker. When he told us the story as it had unfolded, there was not a dry eye in the room. Even though I had already heard the story I still read the book. It brought tears to my eyes again. I have read this book 4 times and have cried each time I have read it. I have given a copy of this book to every member in my family. It is a story of faith, hope, trust, survival, strength and a desire to live. It was truly inspirational for me. It's nice to see there are still some people with strong beliefs in God and family.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great person, great book
Review: I had the opportunity to meet Captain O'Grady, and he is as genuine person as you will ever meet. He retold his story to a church I was attending, and even though I knew the story, it was incredible to hear it from him.

I read his book in one setting, I just couldn't put it down. There were a few bits of military jargon, but none the less a great book to read about a true American Hero!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is a very excellent book to read!
Review: I read "Return with Honor," I thought it was the best book that I have every read so far. It points out how Captain Scott O'Grady survives in unknown territory. That what he did to survive those days out there alone. We as a society can apply some of the same techinques in our own daily life. Such as praying to God and trusting and having more faith within ones self. He points out these positive ideas through out his book. I am planning on reading it a second time. I recommend that anyone out there, that hasn't read it yet. Go and check it out of the library or better yet buy "Return With Honor!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Return with honor
Review: Return with honor is a really good book, I like it and enjoy reading. I think that Scott tells it very well,first I thought that it is kind of unusual because it starts how he got shot, and then about 2 chapters he starts talking about his life from when he was young and then returns back to the fall. After that the book is very intresting. If you like books about are about war and are full of adventure, then I recomend this book to you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible story of one man's survival
Review: Return with Honor is the amazing, true life story of how Captain Scott O'Grady, an F-16 pilot in the U.S. Air Force, survived for several days in the forests of Bosnia after his plane was shot down. The Air Force thought at first that he might be dead. But O'Grady kept his faith in god and used his radio often. He was finally rescued by marines from the U.S.S Kearsarge. An imspring story of an american hero and a tribute to all those who were not as lucky.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Return With Honor
Review: This book has given me a new sense of war. I used to want to join the army, but now that I have read this book and have aquired a new knowledge of what can happen, I have reconsidered. I rated this book with a five because of its action parts. The writing really alowed me to visualize what was happening.
