AIR BASE and THAILAND
by author Leonard Le Blanc III (currently living in Thailand)
AIR BASE and its sequel THAILAND are U.S. military detective mysteries set at U-Tapao Airbase at the end of the Vietnam War.
Written by American Leonard Le Blanc III who served his country as a military member and civilian contractor for over 30 years in Thailand, Japan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Nigeria, Kuwait and Bosnia.
The novels are unique in many ways. They are accurate, documented, and firsthand memories of a First Lieutenant in the course of his duties serving in the U.S. Air Force.
The fictional books are totally immersive and are factual accounts of what actually happened and how the events shaped modern day Thailand, surrounding countries and SE Asia.
They throw the reader right into the action and are illustrated throughout. Some of the characters speak Thai and U.S. military jargon from that time. To assist the reader there is a helpful dictionary in the back, so they can understand the narrative.
The books explain Thai culture, are educational and explain many of the mysteries of modern day warfare and what really happened in the Vietnam War era.
They are currently on sale through Asia Books, Amazon, or if you cannot find them, you can order directly from the author at [email protected] for the price of 400B for AIRBASE and 300B for THAILAND.
