Tom Colegrove I just devoured 'Chickenhawk' in only a few sittings. Thanks for telling your story - wish I had read it years ago. Tom SFC, US Army (Retired) 1974-1994 Sat, Aug 22, 2009 19:58 pm 2975

Chris Harrell Mr Mason Like many posters on this forum I have read Chickenhawk many times. It really is a vivid description of war and the way you told it was absolutely riveting. I also used to teach Helicopter Theory of Flight to technicians. I always based the introduction on the excellent description you provided, like the book it is a commonsense and easily understood account. I wish you and all Vietnam Vets peace and health.

Michael Bugden Dear mr Mason I have read your book many times & I'm reading it again at the moment & every time I pick it up I'm transported to the cockpit,tent,rice paddy,golf course & many other locations that you recount your experiences in .CHICKENHAWK has to be my favorite book of all time.I'll never tire of reading it but I've always been curious ifyou got back into flying in some way shape or form .I'm a pilot myself & haven't flown for ages but the desire is still there in a big way Fri, Aug 7, 2009 03:26 am 2970

John Quane G'day Robert, I first read your book in the '80s & I loaned it to many Aussie domestic airline pilots & it has travelled the lenght & breadth of Australia & is a bit worse for wear but still held together. I served in SVN in '68 with 1RAR (Infantry Battalion) & was most impressed with your story. I will make another effort to find your sequel. Enjoy & thanks, John Wed, Aug 5, 2009 06:48 am 2969

Mike Short Dear Mr Mason, I had a first edition of Chickenhawk, which eventually fell apart I had read it so often. That said, it had been around the world including AFG and other less hospitable locations!! It also gave me enough knowledge on aviation to bluff through a number of staff exams!! Secured another copy the other day and suffice to say geekily googled your name and found the sight. Only one thing to say really - thanks. Mon, Aug 3, 2009 11:42 am 2968

Justin Matheson Dear Mr Mason I've just finished reading your book again after 10 years. My 1st time was as a regional Pilot now working with QANTAS. Most Pilots I fly with have read your book and those that haven't I recommend it to them. You are such a vivid and captivating storyteller! This time round I was particularly mesmerized by your description of perceived time shift due your adrenaline under fire - Thanks for sharing your story. Sun, Aug 2, 2009 00:19 am 2967

Steve Byrne I have read Chickenhawk several times and have given it as a gift many times. Thank you for sharing your experiences. I am a vet from the early 70's and wound up in Korea rather than Viet Nam. Please accept my thanks and best wishes. Wed, Jul 29, 2009 15:02 pm 2965

Danny Gosling Mr.Mason, I am in the process of reading your book for a second time. It is a timeless reminder of the very best and worst of human nature. Well done for this honest masterpiece. Well worthy of the big screen!! Mon, Jul 27, 2009 12:18 pm 2962

Rance Jurevwicz, Capt., USA, Ret Good thing we have the Internet to disseminate much needed information to the veteran family. Websites like this one help spread the word. Websites like ours helps too. Information such as newest presumptive disabilities, veteran-friendly VSOs, and other sources free to veterans can be found at http://www.veteranprograms.com Mon, Jul 27, 2009 09:28 am 2961

Ben Kinzett Mr Mason. Your book was amazing, I felt like I was with you the entire time. It saddens me greatly the things that happen in this world that we cannot control, the only thing we have control over is how we react. I'm glad to have read your book, it has made me see how it was for those in Vietnam. Your story was touching. I hope that these days your sleep is better! Thank you Sincerely Ben Sun, Jul 26, 2009 04:33 am 2960

Jim Morgan Mr. Mason: am a vet with 3 tours in VN in aviation which included one with the 3/17 air cav at Dian. Really enjoyed your book. It was the same in 3/17. Hope you are in good health. PTSD is hell, my brother. Was a member of Aerial Recon Security Troop, pioneer troop of testing air cav operations, Ft Stewart 1959 Sat, Jul 25, 2009 16:25 pm 2959

joseph harte Its awesome to see you have a site I had not read weapon or chicken hawk in years and did not know solo was out so im going to definitely buy them.The end of weapon was just too cruel for a 15yr old to take.A chicken hawk film is way overdue as is a real weapon movie with a real robot.Have you heard of the creativity machine google it because even in the 80s I dont think you were that far off if you go to top documentary films.org theres a short film on it AI that invents things.

Candi Culberson Dear Mr. Mason, I have purchased your book several times through the years (I loan them out and never get them back!). It's the best written account of a U.S. army helicopter pilot's experiences I've ever read. I would be the first in line to see the movie if one is ever made. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and for serving our country. You can hold your head high and be proud of all you've acomplished in your life. Best wishes!

Klaus Schmidt Mr. Mason, it was last night about 1 am in the morning when I finished reading your book for the 2nd time. I have read it 20 years earlier and was as moved and taken by it now as I was then. Thank you and all the best, most of all happy dreams! Tue, Jul 21, 2009 11:10 am 2952
