Présentation de l'éditeur

Can an army helicopter pilot Land a new life? Throughout a grueling, extended tours in the jungles of Vietnam, Captain Dean Crosby lived for the adrenaline rush. A born loner, Crosby recorded each mission into a ledger, ranking mission based on the difficulty and the high he felt afterwards. The sum of his emotional life rested between the leather-covered pages of The Ledger. With the help of Tony, his co-pilot, and OCS classmate, Dave Adams, Crosby is left to reinvent himself as he comes back to the states. With no more combat mission to fly, will he be able to heed the advice given to him by his father from his deathbed to ‘make a difference in the world?’ Raland J. Patterson served in Vietnam as a helicopter pilot from 1970-1971 with the First Cavalry Division. When he retired from the Army as a Lt. Colonel, he had logged 22 years of active duty. He earned the Distinguished Flying Cross and Bronze Star with One Oak Leaf Cluster, and 14 air medals, among other awards. He earned his MBA with an emphasis in Finance from National University. For the past 18 years he worked as a financial planner. The last six were spent as Regional Vice-President in Europe, responsible for 20 different offices located in seven countries. After traveling extensively, he now lives in his hometown of Blue Ridge, Georgia.
