MiG Alley To Mu Ghia Pass: Memoirs of A Korean War Ace is the military memoir of Cecil Foster, a young man born into poverty and hardship, and who joined the Army Air Force in 1943 as a private, eventually retiring in 1975 as a lieutenant colonel. Foster served a multitude of tasks during his Air Force career, but perhaps the most outstanding and remarkable part of his autobiographical history was his service as a high-scoring ace pilot in the aerial battles of the Korean War. Foster's record of nine destroyed MiGs earned him 12th place on a list of 38 aces. Each of the aircraft he destroyed was shot down in a section of airspace called "MiG Alley," which runs along the Yalu River that separates North Korea from China. MiG Alley Mu Ghia Pass is an involving, personal look into one of the countless people who have staked their lives to serve and protect the United States of America. Highly recommended for students of military aviation history in general, and the Korean War in particular.

Too bad this book is out of print and I can't have my own copy. I found this book most entertaining. At times I was moved to anger. As a fellow West Indian I can identify with alot of the plot and some of the characters. Well done!

This novel should make interesting reading for all West Indians. Brings back memories of life as it was in the 1960's. One can truly relate to the characters in the book, in fact they could have been your neighbours. Well done Mr. Foster.
