Memories of a Forward Air Controller: Southeast Asia 1970-1971

by Tom Petitmermet

Pretzel 06 – Memories of a Forward Air Controller

Forty-eight years ago, Tom Petitmermet was assigned as a FAC in Southeast Asia. This book recalls the many “war stories” that occurred during that one-year tour and attempts to answer the question from his grandchildren; “What did you do in the war Grandpa”?

Tom flew 535 combat sorties and was awarded numerous military decorations for his service. Tom relates both humorous and often dangerous happenings during Combat Search and Rescue Missions, Commando Vault, and varied other missions.

The book gives the reader the chance to ride alongside him on airstrikes for a clear view of want it was like to fly missions across thick, dense jungles often in severe storms raging across the region.
