A History of Men in Battle Presented by Frederick Forsyth Air Power
Air power is a relative newcomer to the battlefield, yet in the comparatively few years since aircraft made their first faltering contribution to the soldier's business they have had a profound effect on the way he lives and fights. Air Power looks at the way aircraft have affected the life of the soldier on the ground, by bombing and strafing him and interdicting his supply lines. It also traces the evolution of the airborne soldier from the great parachute operations of World War II to the helicopter cavalry of the Vietnam War.
