Summary
When an American pilot goes down, the Pararescue forces go into action. For decades they have risked their lives to bring their countrymen home. This story features all the key elements of their dangerous jobs: high risk, inventive solutions, and a successful outcome. Inside, read about the people who parachute into danger . . . to bring people back alive! Sometimes a job is so tough, so dangerous, and so important that a singular group of people is needed to get it done. When that happens, the United States military calls upon members of the Special Forces. These elite, dedicated, and highly trained operators use their skills, talent, and courage to complete key missions and save lives
