He provides twelve essential lessons based on his wartime experience and his own personal photographs from his missions during the Cold War, Gulf War, and Iraq War. With a foreword by #1 New York Times bestselling author and radio host Rush Limbaugh, this is a military memoir not to be missed.

Great Book! Some pronunciation mistakes.

Loved the context and experience conveyed. I wanted to gain an appreciation for in-flight refueling as I enter a career in that world here soon. It was an eye opening listen!
As a military guy, some of the pronunciations of certain terms/acronyms were weird as well as the odd enunciation of things like “K” “C” “135” that would sometimes catch my attention enough to pull me out of the immersion.

I will certainly buy the physical copy!

Awesome

As a 135 Crew Cheif and later a KC10 FE this book brought back the good old days. Great book and a must read for any. CAF or MAF aircrew out there, past and present

very enjoyable read

love the book and enjoyed hearing about the gas that keeps it all together. This book opens a whole new world.

Great stories!

Loved this. As a USAF veteran I feel connected to this. Greta to hear the other side of logistics and operations.

Love it!

This book is great! Excellent stories. Great reading. The lessons learned are so good for anyone who wants to get better and be better in their career or just basic life. Could not stop listening to this book!

Tankers

This book was a good insight into the workings of the huge amount of support that the tankers give to all air operations.

Leadership from the Real Frontline

Mark’s ability to take you on his lifelong journey as a real life tanker pilot on the frontlines of all of our modern day conflicts and to be able inject business and life lessons at the end of each story makes for both a riveting and entertaining experience.
The application of his wartime experiences with applicable life and business lessons is what any and all corporate leaders should strive for on their “frontlines”.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to be both entertained as well as looking for pure and simple business acumen and lessons to be learned.

A fantastic book

But the narrator was not easy to listen to. You’d be far better off actually reading the book because so much is lost in translation. The book itself is an interesting insight to how tankers play such a vital roll to AirPower both in war as well as everyday operations
