96 Tears

<p>In the skies over Vietnam a gunship known as 96 Tears lived and fought to tell its tale. Born in the shadow of the scrapped AH-56 Cheyenne-once poised to redefine combat aviation but ultimately falling short-this is the powerful memoir of an attack helicopter called to duty as the Vietnam War raged. From the remnants of a broken program an AH-1G Cobra dubbed 96 Tears took on the daunting task of flying urgent helicopter missions over dense jungles. The result is an evocative and unforgettable account of combat and service.</p>
