My True Story

This is my true story at the age of nineteen. The book tells how I was involved in a Top Secret mission from basic training to being hand picked by the US Air Force to go on the mission. My story tells how I almost got killed. The book has heroes and zeroes in it too.

It tells how my team was transported for the missions to Taiwan. My job was a Quick Reaction Force team member assigned to scramble (launch) out and recover F-4 Phantoms to engage the Communist Chinese and defend Taiwan. The book tells how the mission started, how we scrambled out the fighters, what protocol was used to start the fighters. The highly dangerous action that we had to engage.

It also tells about the Alert Compound and its security and nuclear weapons we had at the base. I tell about the night life, visiting American Generals, and the Republic of China Taiwan dignitaries who inspected the alert compound.

The mission itself is in the National Archives and Record Administration (NARA). The book also shows the mistakes made by the US Air Force putting my team at great risk to our health. There are also photos and documents in the book proving my story is true. Simply put, it is a "Thriller"!
