Product Description
Mark Berent walked (drove actually) into my life when he was Papa Wolf, the Air Attache at Phnom Penh. He and fellow Rustic FAC Rick Scaling chased my burning OV-10 down the runway at Papa Papa in Mark's staff car!
He had been a Hun driver in SVN, the head Wolf FAC at Ubon (thus the nom de guerre of Papa Wolf), and finished his third tour in Phnom Penh as assistant Air Attache, and then as Air Attache. A bit of trivia..has there ever been a final approving authority in SEA other than Blue Chip? YES...it was Mark Berent during the period when Blue Chip was in transit from Saigon to NKP. He was quite literally the MAN!
Mark has written a series of five historical novels set it SEA stretching from 1965 to 1973. The are largely out of print but he has been kind enough to offer the last two titles he has left for sale through The Yankee Air Pirate. All books are First Edition hardbound with dust covers which are also in excellent condition. All books have been inscribed by Papa Wolf...

Mark Berent
aka Papa Wolf
Steel Tiger is set in 1967 and is the second in the series and follows the tours of fighter pilots, FACs, SOG warriors, Presidential advisors, and in this book, even a Soviet Fighter pilot.
You will, in all probability see yourself in his books because his characters are not figments of his imagination...there were his Buds and his enemies.
