Book Reviews of Green Hornets: The History of the U.S. Air Force 20th Special Operations Squadron (Schiffer Military History Book)
Book Review: Excellent Portrayal of this very Unique Group
Summary: 5 Stars
The Green Hornets are a very little known organization that spent years in scenarios totally uncommon to Air Force duty and qualify for many praises from U.S. Army Special Forces. The 20th inserted and extracted Army teams involved in SOG covert operations, participated in many rescues and is unique in that, to my knowledge, it is the only USAF organization to be awarded a U.S. Army Presidential Citation for Viet Nam Service. (It was awarded about 35 years after the fact). This is a good history of some true heros that too often only had each other to thank and encourage. This book is a great opportunity to learn more about Air Force missions and relatively unknown missions in Viet Nam and other arenas.
