SynopsisThe aeroscouts of the 1st Infantry Division had three words emblazoned on their unit patch: Low Level Hell. It was then and continues today as the perfect concise definition of what these intrepid aviators experienced as they ranged the skies of Vietnam from the Cambodian border to the Iron Triangle. The Outcasts, as they were known, flew low and slow, aerial eyes of the division in search of the enemy. Too often for longevity's sake they found the Viet Cong and the fight was on. These young pilots (19-22 years old) "invented" the book as they went along. Praise for Low Level Hell "An absolutely splendid and engrossing book. The most compelling part is the accounts of his many air-to-ground engagements. There were moments when I literally held my breath." --Dr. Charles H. Cureton, Chief Historian, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine (TRADOC) Command " Low Level Hell is the best 'bird's eye view' of the helicopter war in Vietnam in print today. No volume better describes the feelings from the cockpit. Mills has captured the realities of a select group of aviators who shot craps with death on every mission." --R.S. Maxham, Director, U.S. Army Aviation Museum

    The most memorable time of my life, this brought back some time spent in the left front seat of a LOACH, the author puts you right in the middle of some pretty hairy situations, a real page turner.
