About this ebook

Mission; Deliver an aging C-54 aircraft to the Air America group operating out of Da Nang Vietnam and Long Tieng (L21) Laos and return home and return to his every day civilian lifestyle. Team leader AD1 Tim Ryan has his hands full on the mission from the start with an adventurous young bunch of crew members that over indulge in the night out in Olongopo during their RON in the Philippines. Ryan continues with crew to Vietnam where he meets Sean Casey and a girl that is connected with the remains of the WW2 Japanese Colonel Yamashita’s gold cache. He returns home after delivering the aircraft but finds he has lost his civilian job. He calls Casey who gets him selected by Air America to fly cargo in Laos. Everything goes well until Ryan is unintentionally involved in a covert operation by the rebel Laotian General of the area and is captured by his gorillas. Ryan escapes into the jungle along with another prisoner, marine gunny Phil Hearn. He is fired from his Air America job as bureaucrats believe he was involved in the attempted Laotian coup de ta. Ryan returns home only for a short time before he and his veteran buddies decide to return to Laos for the hidden gold treasure remaining there from the Yamashita era. What follows reads like a modern series of the adventures of Terry and the Pirates and is a full length novel. The sequel to this is RECIPROCITY published July, 2011 on Smashwords.
