Description

The story of the F-105 Thunderchief 'Thud' fighter-bomber and its pilots is one of bravery, dedication and sacrifice. Colonel Jack Broughton recounts his experiences flying these rugged aircraft over hostile skies in North Vietnam, from briefing rooms to bombing runs.

With vivid descriptions of aerial combat sequences, Thud Ridge highlights the courage and commitment of American pilots during this period. The book also explores the power of their machines and the challenges they faced, making it a fascinating and graphic memorial to those who served.

A memoir by an exemplary air force officer with a distinguished career, Thud Ridge continues to inspire new generations of air force officers and remains a significant military history classic.
