Summary: ¿¿¿¿~~~???? cool book!!!
Comment: This book is great, it has great details, O'Grady's strive to survive, made a great storie. He had to go through all kinds of obsticals including being hunted down by Bosnian troops. His will to survive let him get through all his obsticals. I recomend this book for people who likes adventure books. This book is almost like the movie "Behing Enemy Lines", so if you like that movie you should check this book out.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent book!
Comment: "Basher Five-Two" is an excellent portrayal of survival of a lone man in territory where everyone is the enemy. It's short, but it packs a lot of detail in. It's a great, short read that you'll be sure to like.

Summary: Basher Five-Two
Comment: This is a story of a man called Captain Scott O' Grady. He starts off preparing to go on patrol to make sure that planes don't fly in a peace area. While patrolling, he is shot down. He then tries to live behind enemy lines until a rescue team comes. He tries to survive for days off of little food and water, while hiding from the enemy. Six days later, a rescue team comes and takes him back home.

I didn't choose this book. My mother bought me the book for me. After I started to read the book I got really interested in it. I like it because it's a true story, and also because it is full of excitement and adventure. I also liked it because it is about planes.

My favorite part was when Captain Scott was patrolling the airs with his friend Wilber. While patrolling the East, his friend was locked on by a Threat-Radar, the kinds that can give you enough information that you can launch a missile in seconds. Then patrolling that area again, he was locked on a shot down by a SAM (Surface-to-air-missiles). While falling, he ejects very early. he then activates his parachute manually, and waits for his seat to fall off on its own. While he falls he directs his chute to try and go to a forest where he can hide and wait.
