"In The Cadet and The Officer, Doug Beason has captured the essence of the lives of the early cadets and graduates of the Air Force Academy. He leaves you wanting to see how the story concludes. I look forward to reading the next book in the series."— General Ron Fogleman, USAFA Class of 1963, 15th Chief of Staff, USAF
"In this sequel to The Cadet, Doug Beason continues to weave his own life experience and recent military history together with an intriguing plot, using a writing style that keeps the reader anxious to turn the page. His artful, but accurate inclusion of the Vietnam POW experience is as educational as it is captivating."
