Book Reviews of Low Level Hell
Book Review: A Valuable Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I am about two thirds of the way through this book, and it is one of the best I have read about Vietnam. Although I have read a lot of books about the war, this is the first one I've seen which is written by a Loach (LOH)pilot. It seems like most of the books I have read about choppers are about Hueys, LRRP pilots or gunships and I never really had a good understanding about what the Loaches experienced. This book really filled a gap in my knowledge, and it is very well written.Book Review: Loach Ace
Summary: 5 Stars
This whole book takes you directly in the chopper above the battlefield. So be ready for a captivating account of flying and fighting with the smallest helicopter used in South-Vietnam. The pace is so fast depicting many different combat situations. What these crews achieved is simply stunning. These actions were all conducted using direct eye vision, before night-vision devices, laser beams and helo-borne radars. Mr. Mills, we want more please.Book Review: Fascinating reading.
Summary: 5 Stars
Low Level Hell is an excellent book, another one that makes you feel as if you are there with the author. I found it hard to put down.
The fast-paced action and the fact that you never know what's going to happen next keeps you riveted to the story. I really enjoyed the book. Mr Mills' memory of all of the events in the book is very impressive. A must-read for fans of Vietnam stories or for helicopter crews.
Book Review: As True As It Gets....
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a Crew Chief on an OH-6A and sat behind my pilot each and every time the aircraft left the ground. We flew many a mission for Captain Mills and you will not find a truer account of the life of an Aero Scout Pilot and his Crew Chief as you will in his book Low Level Hell. He was there, we were there, and when you read the book YOU will be there! An excellent account of what we went through in Vietnam.Book Review: Current Scout Pilot, Former Darkhorse 10
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the book that launched me into my Scout Piloting career in 1993. Three Iraq combat tours later and I still revere Low Level Hell as the "scout pilot bible". I tell every new scout pilot I meet that it's a mandatory read.
I had to apologize to Mr. Mills when I met him at Ft. Bragg because I took the AOL screen name "lowlevelhell" before he did.
Read this book.
