This book focuses as much on the historical and cultural context of the intelligence gathering mission of the Batcat (USAF 553rd Wing) during the Vietnam War as it does on the technical aspects of the aircraft and the "new" electronic warfare pioneered by these aviators and their support personnel. A good read, it is also a book nicely suited for history and/or social science courses that seek to address the ethnographic, political, sociological, and very human issues of the American military experience in Southeast Asia.
