Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
On October 3, 1993, Chief Warrant Officer Michael Durant was sent on a dangerous mission to help stop a brutal warlord from seizing control of the African country of Somalia. Michael was a helicopter pilot for the U.S. Army's elite special operations force known as the Night Stalkers. His mission was to fly U.S. Army Rangers into the heart of Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, so that they could capture the warlord. Would Michael be able to carry out this risky mission? Look inside to meet the Army Night Stalkers who bravely serve our country, and get an inside look at how they train for and carry out their dangerous missions. From rescuing prisoners to capturing terrorists, no job is too tough for Army Night Stalkers. Book jacket.
