Reviews
Danger Close is absolutely fantastic. This is one of the most exciting and inspirational books I have read in years! Men and women alike will love this incredible tale of heroism, humility, and high-octane feats of bravery. Danger Close is the real deal!, Danger Close is a riveting and intensely personal account of a woman who spent nearly a third of her life at war. Amber Smith goes beyond detailing the experience of women in the military and takes the reader into the cockpit with her to explore the vivid and harrowing world of being a combat helicopter pilot. Amber is one hell of a Soldier and an American hero on every level., The captivating story of one woman's fight to serve her country in the direct line of danger. Amber Smith shows readers the true meaning of patriotism and how to survive under extreme pressure. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat and you won't want to put it down., While the debate goes on about the role of women in combat, Amber Smith's Danger Close reminds us that pilots are pilots and the American warrior ethos is alive and well, regardless of what restroom you use. When my squad was under fire in Iraq, the buzz of Kiowa rotors was our lifeline. The simple truth is that many children have fathers today because of the daring close support of Amber Smith and her elite colleagues. I am proud to be a part of an Army that produces pilots like Amber, who are unapologetic about the pure fury they unleash on a deserving enemy., Danger Close is a fantastic view into the world of combat helicopter pilots as seen through the eyes of a successful and proven US Army female combat helicopter pilot. It is an exciting ride through training and combat operations in both Iraq and Afghanistan. I laughed at the antics only found in military training and operations and cried at the anguish experienced through combat loss. As a combat veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan, I and my team called in airstrikes from pilots across all services, including from some amazing women pilots. Amber Smith proves she is one of these pilots and that she has what it takes as an American warrior. Danger Close gives tremendous insight into the sacrifice our American men and women make every day for Freedom across the globe. Most importantly, Amber sets the example for all young women who aspire to serve our nation's armed forces and I encourage any young woman looking to join the military to read this book.
Synopsis
One of the few women to pilot the Kiowa Warrior helicopter, Amber Smith flew into enemy fire in some of the most dangerous combat zones in the world. Now, in her riveting memoir, the first written by a Kiowa pilot who engaged, in high-intensity warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan, Smith takes you into the heat of the battle, where routine scouting missions can become harrowing ambushes in an instant and protecting troops is paramount. Smith recounts her unrelenting fight for both mastery and respect as she navigates boot camp and flight training school, where pilots learn to perform under pressure. Smith perseveres under extreme duress-both in action against an implacable enemy and within the "boys' club" of Army aviation, ultimately rising to pilot in command and air mission commander in the premier Kiowa unit in the Army, the elite 2-17 Cavalry Regiment. Dramatic, cinematic, and inspiring, Danger Close is both a great war story and the personal chronicle of a brave pilot who fought for and earned a lifetime membership in the ranks of the best of the best. Book jacket., Inspiring and "riveting...vivid and harrowing" (Sean Parnell, author of Outlaw Platoon ), Danger Close is the first memoir of active combat by a female helicopter pilot in Iraq and Afghanistan. New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor raves, "Men and women alike will love this incredible tale of heroism, humility, and high-octane feats of bravery." Amber Smith flew into enemy fire in some of the most dangerous combat zones in the world. One of only a few women to fly the Kiowa Warrior helicopter--whose mission, armed reconnaissance, required its pilots to stay low and fly fast, perilously close to the fight--Smith deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan and rose to Pilot-in-Command and Air Mission Commander in the premier Kiowa unit in the Army. She learned how to perform and survive under extreme pressure, both in action against an implacable enemy and within the elite "boy's club" of Army aviation. In Danger Close, Smith "covers each mission with edge-of-your-seat detail and a coolness that demonstrates how she gained the respect of fellow pilots and soldiers on the ground" ( Library Journal ). Smith's unrelenting fight for both mastery and respect delivers universal life-lessons that will be useful to any civilian, from "earning your spurs" as a newbie to "embracing the suck" through setbacks that challenge your self-confidence to learning to trust your gut as a veteran of your profession. Intensely personal, cinematic, poignant, and inspiring, Danger Close is "the captivating story of one woman's fight to serve her country in the direct line of danger" (Dana Perino, co-host of The Five on Fox News).
