Operation Desert Storm Editorial Review
The AV-8B Harrier II Units of Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm Combat Aircraft is an engaging and fun read that provides insight into the role of the Harrier in the Gulf War. The book features many pilot anecdotes that bring the story to life, but some readers may find the organization repetitive as it tells the complete history of each Harrier squadron in the Gulf War one at a time. Despite this, the book is highly recommended for fans of the aircraft and those interested in the role of the Harrier in the Gulf War. The author's previous book on Harriers in Enduring Freedom is also recommended. The book provides a nice blend of background with plenty of commentary from the pilots that flew it in the war.
