U.S. Air Force Tactical Missiles 1949 – 1969 The Pioneers


George Mindling (71st TMS; Bitburg) and Bob Bolton (887th TMS; Grünstadt) have recently finished their book U.S. Air Force Tactical Missiles 1949 – 1969 The Pioneers.

 

Description:

The U.S. Air Force Tactical Missiles, 1949-1969, The Pioneers offers the rich, fascinating history of the first surface-to-surface tactical missiles of the U.S. Air Force, the winged, nuclear-capable Matador and Mace missiles, and their units and personnel in West Germany, Taiwan, Korea, Okinawa and the United States. The U.S. Air Force Tactical Missiles, 1949-1969, The Pioneers ties that unique era and those of other tactical missiles together in a remarkably broad, deep and valuable perspective that also includes the World War II German V-1 and reaches back all the way to the first flight in the United States in 1916 of an aircraft not controlled by a pilot.
