Eagle with a Badge, a Texas size compilation of life experiences by a living action hero. The cavalry arrives and most of the time saves the day, so if you enjoy Clancy's Jack Ryan or Cussler's Dirk Pitt this is a must read. This book provides insight into the often hidden and rarely discussed struggle between the dark side of life and the forces of good from the real perspective of one who was there. A man of humble origins becomes an authentic modern day hero using technology of today and his impeccable character of yesterday. Truly a remarkable true life adventure.

Because I live with two pilots, I was very impressed with the descriptions of the flying involved! When I read about incidents in areas that I am familiar with I felt just like I was in the helicopter with the crew! I would recommend this to anyone interested in flying!

I was excited to receive a copy of this book from my wife and after starting it, could not put it down. I have been a private pilot for many years, and have worked in the Criminal Justice system for over 30. While I have many books on both subjects, this was the 1st I have seen that combines both. Paul does what I believe to be an outstanding job of addressing the topics in a manner that holds the interest of a large cross section of backgrounds. He gives enough information for non-pilots to understand the problems associated with the operations, yet does not bore experienced pilots with elementary detail. It is obvious the book is written by a veteran Law Enforcement officer as it provides an insight that captures the emotional impressions of adrenaline enhanced operations involved in this field that are experience by all officers, but is artfully done in a manner I have never read before. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in aviation, in law enforcement, or both.

A very interesting book that is hard to put down. Good reading!

Paul Creech has done a masterful job of placing the reader in the cockpit of his vehicle. You feel the wind, hear the sounds and see what is happening below. You experience the feelings associated with a sucessful mission. You feel the pride of the author as he goes about his daliy responsibilities as a DPS officer. You come away wioth a great feeling for "family." This is an excellent book.

I have read the book and find it one that when you start you cant lay it down till it,s finished. I am a retired State trooper myself and can relate to a lot of the different things Paul went through. I believe any one would enjoy this book, and I highly recomend it for anyone that is interested .

"Eagle With A Badge" is one book that leaves the reader with a good idea of what airborne police deal with over a period of time. The author gives good examples of situations that are encountered and the long hours pilots put in to help the public. The trooper, as well as other emergency public servants, put their duties ahead of their families. That is something that comes with the job but is not recognized by the public. "Eagle With A Badge" brings out what the dedicated public servants do with little recognition.
