After a brutal accident forced him out of the Paras, Ed Macy refused to go down quietly. He bent every rule to sign up for the ArmyтАЩs gruelling Apache helicopter programme and was one of the handful to pass the nightmare selection process. Dispatched to AfghanistanтАЩs notorious Helmand Province in 2006, his squadron were on hand when a marine went MIA behind enemy lines тАУ and they knew they were his only hope.
From the cockpit of the mighty Apache helicopter comes this incredible true story of a rescue mission so dangerous they said it couldnтАЩt be done, and of the man who dared to disagree.
