Deeds Publishing Announces Yankee Air Pirates: A Novel by C.K. McCusker in Collaboration with Colonel Robert Certain, USAF (Ret)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deeds Publishing:

What:	World War II had Catch 22. Korea had M*A*S*H. Vietnam now has Yankee Air Pirates.
	In the winter of 1972, President Nixon ordered Operation Linebacker II, the most massive aerial bombing campaign since the end of World War II. Yankee Air Pirates is the story of the young men that flew the massive B52’s into the jaws of death and, for the most part, lived to tell about it.
	Yankee Air Pirates describes this campaign through the eyes of Spike, Bulldog, D-Kid, and the many other crewdogs who flew the massive Stratofortress on these dangerous missions. In the 11 nights of bombing, 15 of the huge planes were shot down.
	Yankee Air Pirates is hilarious, moving, thought provoking, insightful and always entertaining. Whatever you think of the wars this nation has fought, Yankee Air Pirates will make you proud to know the individuals who have fought them for the rest of us.
Who:	The author, C.K. McCusker, a University of Arizona graduate, applied for a commission and flight training in the Air Force. After 18 months of training, he received his wings as a navigator. He was assigned to B52’s and flew more than 100 combat missions in Vietnam, including Operation Linebacker II. He spent 12 years in senior management positions with General Electric and remained in the corporate world and entrepreneurial world until recently. Like his father before him, he is now pursuing his passion of writing full time.
When:	Yankee Air Pirates will be available in late July 2010. The first 2,000 copies of the first edition will be signed and numbered. Ordering details as well as the first two chapters of the book are available at www.deedspublishing.com
