In the cockpit of an Apache, hands, feet, and even eyes need to operate independently. As strong as a tank and, equipped with two Rolls Royce RTM-322 engines, the helicopter is remarkably fast and nearly impossible to shoot down. And thanks to a powerful array of weapons and cameras, the Apache helicopter can spot prey from miles away—and kill the enemy with a flick of the finger. In 2007, Ed’s Apache squadron was dispatched to Afghanistan’s notorious Helmand Province, with the mission to fight alongside and protect the men on the ground by any means necessary. And when a marine goes missing in action, Ed and his team know they are the army’s only hope of bringing him back alive. With a soldier strapped to each side of two gunships, they must land in the heart of Jugroom Fort, a Taliban stronghold, and come face-to face with hordes of their unrelenting enemy. What follows is a breathtaking rescue, unlike any the world has ever seen. Review: Hard to break reading when you start - Excelent read! Just couldn't put it down in some moments and kept reading through the night. It is one of the very few books of the kind that gripped me that hard. The topic which is interesting for me is one thing, but what even more important it is very, very well written. And that English sense of humor that made me burst laughing more than once! The same author published the second book, that one describing his experiences during his the first tour in Afghanistan. Hope it is as good as this one. But decided to go for the book 'Dressed to Kill' written by Ed Macy's mate flying one of the second pair of Apaches - Charlotte. Will be interesting to compare male and female point of view of the same cirstumstances, actions, ways of military life etc. What is also important for me that this book shows how different is British attitude to war, soldiering and world in general comparing to American one. I'm giving it 5 stars both for contents and interesting topic as well as quality of writing, in every aspect. Review: A must read for every DCS apache pilot. - Since DCS released the AH64 module, I bought this book to enrich my virtual pilot experience. I did the same with other modules, spitfire, F18, and A10. None of the books written by real pilots disappointed me. This one is different. It psychologically situated you in the seat of an apache pilot. The book was "glued" to my hands until I had finished reading.

I did the same with other modules, spitfire, F18, and A10. None of the books written by real pilots disappointed me. This one is different. It psychologically situated you in the seat of an apache pilot. The book was "glued" to my hands until I had finished reading. EPIC! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Credible *by L***K on August 31, 2009* An excerpt from this book was printed in Air & Space Magazine, which is why I ordered it. I guess the rescue attempt for which these folks are well known in the UK was little covered elsewhere ; a shame, since it was such a gutsy move. The book is well written and accessible to readers with a non-military,or even non military aviation background. There is enough technical information to satisfy the military folks in allied fields, and the jargon/acronyms used are not impenetrable, and whose absence in any case would subvert the accurate portrayal of the job. The rescue attempt is by no means the total of the book, but is one of the outstanding missions in a job where few operational missions are 'routine', and effectively describes the capabilities of the crews and the the machines, with no histrionics, as is the habitual understated British manner. Credit to all involved, from the support folks to the aircrew themselves. And a timely reminder, without involvement of a political viewpoint, that the UK Military, as challenged as they are by historically (and continuing) botched procurement decisions, has folks who are at the top of their game, and make a significant contribution. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://cook.desertcart.com/products/61539364-apache](https://cook.desertcart.com/products/61539364-apache) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cook Islands* *Store origin: CK* *Last updated: 2026-06-20*
