In his book "Bulls-eye" - Journal of a Black Hawk pilot, Deeter takes his readers on a trip to the middle east, and gives them a first hand look at the life of an Army Helicopter Pilot in the war in Iraq. From the scorching temperatures to the grueling pace of combat, his journal entries paint an accurate picture for the reader of the day to day life of a Black Hawk pilot in the Iraq war. His story of his deployment to Iraq provides not only an up close look at the war, but also a view of the struggles deployed soldiers endure, both on the battlefield and upon returning home.
