The life and career of Air Force General Jerome F. O'Malley is described in remarkable, vivid detail in this biography written by his friends and associates, Patrick and Aloysius Casey. This storyline addresses the only question mark on O’Malley’s career—the Lavelle raids of February 1972. Using appropriate Nixon White House audio recordings and top secret messages (sent by the Joint chiefs of Staff to Vietnam) that were acquired through the Freedom of Information Act, Aloysius and Patrick Casey rescued from character assassination the reputation not only of Jerry O’Malley but also the reputation of Gen John D. Lavelle. They reveal the real culprit in the matter—the Nixon White House.

Contents: The Fatal Crash * The Hard Coal Region * Saint Rose School * Saint Rose Basketball * West Point * Diane Muennink, Silver Wings, and the Air Force Academy * The B-47 Bomber and the General's Aide * The Blackbird SR-71 * Colonel O'Malley and Combat in Country * Combat Operations in North Vietnam * SAC Wing Commander * Brigadier General: First General Officer Assignments * Joint Chiefs of Staff * Air Staff Plans and Operations * Vice-Chief of the US Air Force * Pacific Air Force Commander * Tactical Air Force Commander and the Conclusion
