Chickenhawk is Robert Mason’s 1983 memoir about his time as a Huey helicopter pilot in Vietnam. The book covers everything from his flight training at Fort Wolters to the daily reality of flying into hot landing zones under fire. It is written in a straightforward, visceral style that puts the reader in the cockpit.

Back in the World Again (1994) picks up where Chickenhawk left off, following Mason’s return to the United States and his struggle to readjust to civilian life. The sequel deals with PTSD, legal troubles, and the long shadow that the war cast over Mason’s post-service years. Together, the two books tell a complete story of one soldier’s journey through war and its aftermath.
