About this product

Product Information

No one in Vietnam had to tell door gunner and gunship crew chief Al Sever that the odds didn't look good. He volunteered for the job well aware that hanging out of slow-moving choppers over hot LZs blazing with enemy fire was not conducive to a long life. But that wasn't going to stop Specialist Sever. From Da Nang to Cu Chi and the Mekong Delta, Sever spent thirty-one months in Vietnam, fighting in eleven of the war's sixteen campaigns. Every morning when his gunship lifted off, often to the clacking and muzzle flashes of AK-47s hidden in the dawn fog, Sever knew he might not return. This raw, gritty, gut-wrenching firsthand account of American boys fighting and dying in Vietnam captures all the hell, horror, and heroism of that tragic war.

  • Great history of the war

    The book is very interesting. There’s plenty to learn from some who has not experienced helicopters in the viet nam war. The author tells the story from a soldiers point of view great job

  • Hard to put down from page 1 on.

    The author lives in a town near my home, and I met him when he came to my house to pick up some Jeep tires. He told me of his experience in Viet Nam and that he had written a book called Xin Loi. I bought the book and was blown away. If you like war history, read this book.

  • Xin Loi, Viet Nam

    The book arrived in first class condition. I have read it and found to to be funny and a good read about a door gunner. I always wanted to do this job but would not extend as a LRRP Team Leader or back seat air observer for six months to get this job as the author did to be a door gunner. Many door gunners got multiple Air Medals. My one was enough. The price was reasonalbe but the mailing was outrageous.
