"Good to Go": The Rescue of Capt. Scott O'Grady, Usaf, from Bosnia

Rating:
Summary: "Good to Go"
Review: As a wife of one the members of the TRAP mission it was great to finally read something about the men that risked their lives to save Capt. O'Grady. America views O'Grady as a hero, when in truth the Marines are the heros. Imagine, for a moment reading all of the quotes, from the men and not just reading a meaningless name, but actually remembering BBQs, nights out together, and watching their children grow before your eyes. This book gave an insight on the men. Everyone knows everything about O'Grady, but what do you know about the men that made it possible for him to live?

As a footnote: my husband (in the book Cpl Lindsey--he has continued his faithful service and has been promoted)doesn't not share my sentiments. He sees it as a job--that's what he is paid to do. He doesn't even like talking about it.
I am proud that names were put to the other key players in this story!

Review: Embelished. Know inside story. Should NEVER have been shot down in the first place. Laundry list of errors on ground starting with basic rescue procedures.

Review: I'm so impressed with our military. The men that flew into Bosnia to rescue Scott O'Grady are true hero's. This book goes into a lot of detail on how our armed forces work together in crisis situations. It's awesome!!

Summary: Not neccessarily a Good To Go book
Review: This is a well researched book, but it is slow moving and got very boring at times. If you want to read the story from the folks who planned and executed the mission this is the book that tells their side, but it lacks a certain excitement. Capt O'Grady is quoted only a few times. I was surprised that certain mistakes made during the planning and execution of the rescue were disclosed.
