Flying in a B-52 is hours and hours of pure boredom, followed by moments of stark terror!
If you are not interested in the peacetime alert or the non-flying tales of B-52 crewmembers and are only interested in the edge-of-the-seat, fingernail-biting stories of men under extreme pressure, then this book is the one you want to read.

All the stories in this book have previously been published in Volumes 1-6 of the "We Were Crewdogs" series. This book is a collection of only the stories that involved inflight emergencies, ejections, crashes, and combat momemts that involved a sense of danger and the rapid responses needed to control the situation.

There are multiple stories of ejections and survival, both in combat and peacetime environments. One story is told by a crewmembers who ejected from a B-52 and survived , even after riding his ejection seat to the ground without a parachute. There are stories from the first crew to be shot down over Hanoi and the last B-52 shot down in the Vietnam War.
All the stories are about the mighty BUFF, the B-52 Stratofortress and the men who flew it, and their moments of stark terror.
