520    Operation Grasshopper first published in 1958, is the 
       little-known yet vital story of U.S. Army Aviation 
       operations during the Korean conflict. In contrast to the 
       Air Force, Army "Grasshopper" pilots flew light, unarmed 
       planes (especially the Cessna L-19 'Bird Dog') and 
       helicopters, to report on enemy troop movements and 
       artillery positions, to perform rescue missions of fellow 
       soldiers, and to fly countless missions transporting the 
       wounded to medical facilities. Author Dario Politella 
       served as an Army Aviation pilot in both World War Two and
       in Korea, and recounts the role of these small planes in 
       the larger history of the Korean war. This new edition 
       includes 58 pages of maps, photographs and drawings.
