Book Description/Synopsis:
As a Vietnam veteran and Phantom
F-4 pilot, Col. Gail Peck (call-sign "EVIL") had been disappointed
with the level of training offered to US fighter pilots. He was determined to
ensure that US fighter pilots were unbeatable in the air particularly against
their Cold War adversaries flying the already legendary MiG fighter jets.
Working with the support of General Hoyt S. Vandenberg, Jr., and under
conditions of the utmost secrecy the CONSTANT PEG program was launched with
Peck as the original "Red Eagle."
