5.0 out of 5 stars A Raider but not a barbarian!, March 2, 2004
By A Customer
Galen Kittleson's uncanny ability to see the enemy first and valor under fire behind enemy lines are legend. I just finished his biography and am thankful for his service to his country. Through Charles Sasser's words the persona of Kittleson is clear and his humility is reminiscent of medal of honor recipients.

I gained insight into the horrific conditions of our prisoners of WWII (especially Baatan) and Viet Nam (Son Tay and Hanoi Hilton) and the bravery of men like Galen Kittleson who dared try to return them home. De Opresso Liber. Thank you Command Sargeant Major Kittleson. You are the epitome of a Special Forces Quiet Professional.

5.0 out of 5 stars CSM Galen Kettleson, May 8, 2006
By Alamo Scouts (Charles City, Iowa) - See all my reviews
Galen Kettleson is the most courages person that has inspired many people though out his life. Reading this book has given me a much higher respect for this man. Kettleson has been a friend of my family for close to thirty years, on May 4th 2006, Galen passed away. We have lost a true American Hero. ALAMO ALL THE WAY

5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing, May 30, 2009
By Lodge2 (Texas) - See all my reviews
  
This review is from: Raider (Paperback)
Galen Kittleson lived an honorable life and participated in some amazing military operations. His story is well told and does not portray him as larger than life. He comes across as the consummate quiet professional.

Excellent insight into POW rescue operations during WWII and Vietnam. A quick and easy book to read.
