Nigel Appleton I read Chickenhawk when it was first published in the UK in 84 (No pictures) and have just re-read it. It is still as inspirational as the first time and I salute you for all you did and suffered. How about adding a blog/summary/update to the site so we know how you are today - very well I hope.

Don Titus I had not been able to read anything about Viet Nam until only recently. I stumbled on your book Chicken Hawk and bought it. I liked it so much, I had to read Back in the World. I just finished that. Thanks for your service, and thanks for putting your story in print, for people to see what it was like to be in that war.

Jon Chatham Fantastic book, definitely the best I've read on the subject! You've given me a lot to work on for scale flying (I fly rc model helicopters). I'm definitely going to have to get hold of your other books! Take care - Jon Chatham Sun, Mar 22, 2009 17:01 pm 2742

Dennis Aspenleiter Robert I read both editions of chickenhawk, great book, I have always wanted to learn to fly helicopters, just have never took the step. I am sure by now you know about ultralight helicopters, the mosquito and the heli cycle, turbines. thanks for your service. I salute you. Dennis Sun, Mar 22, 2009 08:51 am 2741

Thomas Dear Mr Mason, i have just finished your book on the helicopter war of Vietnam and it has inspired me to continue my dream of becoming a pilot. Thank you for a wonderful read. just one of your fans Tom Sat, Mar 21, 2009 20:43 pm 2738

Dennis Bartash I was one of your students and I loved all of your books. I lost my copy of Chickenhawk you signed for me. I was talking with Gary Lineberry today and hope to see you next year at VHPA in San Diego. If you have time, drop me a line. Sat, Mar 21, 2009 03:55 am 2737

Larry Kothe Jr Mr. Mason, I just finished reading Chickenhawk for the second time and wanted to drop you a line. First off, Thanks for your service to our company and second for writing about your life as remembered. My dad was in the AF for 4 years in the early 60's and I wasn't ever in the armed forces. Thanks again for a great book, I hope you realize what a good job you've done. Larry Fri, Mar 20, 2009 22:19 pm 2736

Nick Page Mr Mason - thanks for your books and stories... have read them many times. I am a retired WO and have flown (and still flying) many different helicopters, but the Huey is still my all time favorite... truly a first love affair. Thanks again. Sat, Mar 14, 2009 12:14 pm 2732

Neil Cutten Bob, I had the chance back in 1971 to learn to fly helicopters when I was in the Australian Navy. I wanted jets. Now, at age 56, I'm learning to fly helicopters after a long time as a Commercial Pilot and Flight Instructor. Great book. I am writing a book about helicopter flying, reciting stories from pilots, instructors etc so that anyone who wishes to consider a career as a helicopter pilot can get an idea of what life as a line pilot can really be like.

Larry Clifton Bob, My son just recently gave me Chickenhawk. He was a Cav Scout and one of the first into Baghdad. My Dad was in WWII with Patton and got the Bronze Star in Korea. I was Signal Corp from '67-'71 and only know of combat from men like them and you. I have my father's Hamilton watch in front of me as I type this. With immense respect, I offer my hardy handshake.

Ned Hamlin Robert, I was just given your book by the wife of an ex-marine friend of mine after he passed away. I was a door gunner on a Huey in 1968. Made it through Tet, and haven't thought much about Vietnam since, until I read your book. Got reassigned to Germany, served on Garmisch ski patrol (being a door gunner survivor had perks). I'm now an architect and starting to think more about my war. Good on you. Ned Hamlin Wed, Mar 11, 2009 11:42 am 2727

Przemyslaw (Brian) Laczynski I remember the first time I read 'Chickenhawk' - it was in High School 15 years ago. Awesome! I got interested in the war in Viet Nam and got my Master's degree in history writing about it . All that thanks to that book. Thank you sir! Greetings form Central Europe.

James Nield Utterly blown away by this fantastic book. I just felt I had to write to Mr Mason and tell him how much this has effected me. Words fail me......just brilliant, thank you so much Bob. Tue, Mar 3, 2009 15:57 pm 2723

Tod Burns Greetings Robert, I read your book for the first time when I flew helicopters in the SADF, I ended up on Airbusses internationally ( not sure how that happened! ) But your book was an inspiration during my training, my advice to any youngster wanting to fly helicopters in the military, is to read your book and then decide, keep well, Tod Burns Sun, Feb 15, 2009 03:12 am 2703

Tim Farnden Read Chickenhawk a few years back and was so moved by it. Always been fascinated by the Vietnam experience of ordinary folk thrown into an unbelievably terrible conflict. Also by the reaction of the US public to returning vets. Wish you well my friend - I feel that I know you. Tim Sat, Feb 14, 2009 13:01 pm 2702
