O knihe
It has been 42 years since the tragic November 1978 mass suicide/murder of American citizens at the Peoples Temple Agricultural Settlement in Jonestown, Guyana. In the intervening four decades, so much has happened to US special operations forces and the US Air Force, brought about in large part by world events that demonstrated the unquestionable need for fully resourced, trained, and ready joint special operations forces. This monograph tells the heretofore untold story of what the Airmen who would, a few years later, form the nucleus of Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), did to help recover the victims' bodies - a special air operation that pushed the limits of what their training and previous combat experiences had prepared them for. For two weeks, in the steaming jungles of Guyana, the combat controllers, aircrews, and maintenance teams demonstrated the attributes of selfless service, boldness, and humble professionalism that are now synonymous with America's "Air Commandos."
