His research inspired novel about these pilots became an overnight bestseller and, perhaps, the most widely read book ever written about aerial combat. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Using Michener's notes, author David Sears tracked down the actual pilots to tell their riveting, true-life stories. From the icy, windswept decks of aircraft carriers, they penetrated treacherous mountain terrain to strike heavily defended dams, bridges, and tunnels, where well entrenched Communist anti-aircraft gunners waited to shoot them down. Many of these men became air combat legends, and one, Neil Armstrong, the first astronaut to walk on the moon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSuch Men As These\u003c\/i\u003e brims with action-packed accounts of combat and unforgettable portraits of the pilots whose skill and sacrifice made epic history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA former US Navy officer and a Vietnam War veteran, \u003cb\u003eDavid Sears\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of four previous books, including \u003ci\u003eSuch Men as These\u003c\/i\u003e.
