Excerpted memoir pages from Misty FAC pilot E. Lynn Farnsworth trace his second combat shootdown over the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos, from the crippled F-100F and ejection through tense hours evading capture in the jungle. The narrative closes with his dramatic rescue, as A-1 Skyraiders suppress enemy fire and a Pararescue Jumper helps hoist him aboard a Jolly Green Giant helicopter.
