That Others May Live

They are the military's most elite force, a highly trained group of men serving the Air Force and National Guard with a mandate to fly behind enemy lines during war and rescue downed pilots. They are pararescue jumpers, or PJs for short, the most radically fit, mentally tough men in the armed forces. During peacetime, PJs take part in daring civilian rescues, recovering victims from scorching deserts, treacherous mountaintops, or raging seas. Most people learned of the PJs in The Perfect Storm, with its riveting account of how a helicopter of PJs plunged into the Atlantic during a rescue. Senior Master Sergeant Jack Brehm coordinated the dramatic rescue efforts.PJs are always on call, ready to put their own lives on the line so "that others may live". In an age seemingly devoid of heroes, these men are the real deal, a close-knit unit bound together by bravery and guts, selflessness and sacrifice, and the intense desire to both serve their country and live life on the edge.Jack Brehm is the author of 'That Others May Live' with ISBN 9781568951386 and ISBN 1568951388.
