Operation Eagle Claw

Recommended Posts

Something tells me that any film based on "Without Remorse" will be be a disappointment, because they would never stick to the story of the book.

 

Yeah, it seems to be the trend these days. The movie version of "Clear and Present Danger" wasn't bad though.

 

Maybe hollywood should do a movie on the Son Tay Rescue Mission, and do it soon...while there are still H-53's in the USAF. I believe one of the still-serving MH-53J/M's (was a HH-53C back in 1970) was a participant of the raid.

Without Remorse was the one entirely on "Mr. Clark" correct?

Well, almost. Greer was in it, too. Also, another guy that was in (the book) HfRO is in it I believe.

^^ Well hopefully atleast some good lessons were learned.

 

Just recently read a book called "The Raid" by Benjamin Schemmer, about the Son Tay Rescue Mission.

 

...Very well executed. Too bad there were no POW's at Son Tay.

 

 

well thank the CIA cloud seeding operation for messing that up
