The F-4 Phantom II was the USAF workhorse fighter-bomber for the Linebacker campaign, which eventually saw US forces withdraw from Vietnam ''with honour'' in 1973. This book covers the F-4 attacks on numerous targets in North Vietnamese cities such as Hanoi and Haiphong, as well as its engagements with Vietnamese MiG-19s and MiG-21s hell-bent on defending the north from ''Yankee air pirates''. The USAF''s only ace crew, which scored their five kills during 1972, is also covered in a book containing many detailed photographs, a large proportion of which haven''t been published before.
