Freedom Through Vigilance is the heretofore untold in-depth history of Air Force Security Service-smallest, most hush-hush command in the Air Force (1948-1979). Written by a USAFSS veteran (21 years).
The recent forced landing of a U.S. Navy EP-3 surveillance aircraft on Hainan Island after aerial harassment by Chinese fighters underscores that the dangers of the Cold War are not behind us. Reconnaissance-intelligence gathering-has always been one of the most highly secretive operations in the military. Men risk their lives with no recognition for themselves, flying missions that were almost always unarmed and typically pose as weather survey or training flights. Now the true stories of these brave young men can at last be told. Larry Tart and Robert Keefe, former USAF airborne recon men themselves, provide a gripping, unprecedented history of American surveillance planes shot down by China and Russia-from the opening salvoes of the Cold War to the most recent international standoff with China. Appearing here for the first time are many crucial documents, ranging from formerly highly classified U.S. files to conversations with Khrushchev and top secret reports from the Russian presidential archives. Along with previously unreleased military details, this meticulously researched book includes MiG fighter pilot transcripts and interviews with participants from both sides-including survivors of downed American planes. From the Baltic to the Bering Seas, from Armenia and Azerbaijan to China, Korea, and the Sea of Japan, these gripping accounts reveal the drama of what really happened to Americans shot down in hostile skies. The Price of Vigilance brings to life the harrowing ordeals faced by the steel-nerved crews, the diplomatic furor that erupts after shootdowns, and the grief and frustration of the families waiting at home-families who, most often, were never told what their loved ones were doing. Armed with the results of recent crash-site excavations, advanced DNA testing, and the reports of local witnesses who can finally reveal what they saw, Tart and Keefe have written a real-life thriller of the deadly cat-and-mouse game of intelligence gathering in the air and across enemy borders. The centerpiece of the book is the fate of USAF C-130 60528 and its crew of seventeen, shot down over Armenia on September 2, 1958, with no known survivors. Tart and Keefe also vividly describe other shootdowns, including the tense stand off between the U.S. and China after an American reconnaissance aircraft was forced to land on Hainan Island in April 2001. The Price of Vigilance pays moving tribute to the courage and patriotism of all the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy crews, including those captured and the more than two hundred who never returned. Larry Tart and Robert Keefe wish to publicly acknowledge to the families, and to the nation, that we will never forget their sacrifice.

Your argument of how to protect the goose that laid the golden egg by defending freedom, civil society, and capitalism from the pernicious effects of Progressivism seems compelling to me. Moreover your account of the rise of progressivism in the U.S.is must reading for anyone who would take a stand on political issues. And no one who reads your accounts of the rise and fall of free-people-free market models of government in other societies can fail to agree with you about the value of government allowing the market to operate as freely as possible. It is a very informative summary of an enormous amount of data that I have not seen elsewhere, and a powerful empirical argument. - Phillip Scribner, Associate Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, American University

Our world is changing rapidly, while social division appears to be increasing. Some of these developments may seem alarming. Often we find ourselves struggling to keep up, get ahead, or simply relax. Life appears both impermanent and imperfect. It doesnt have to be this way. What we may not realize is that all of us, friend and foe alike, are perfect, complete, right here, right now, and always. Vigilance of the Heart traces that state of pure perfection and abiding joy we all seek, without realizing it is actually seeking us! All our experiences from the mundane to the sublime, from hardships to blessings, emerge from three powerful forces of the mind: awareness, attention, and reward. They underlie our sense of opposites ignorance-wisdom, distraction-absorption, bondage-freedom, and everything in between. These same three forces interact to reveal mindfulness, heartfulness, and playfulness the natural wellsprings of who we truly are. Vigilance of the Heart starts out as a journey of the heart and mind. It comes full circle as mindfulness, heartfulness, and playfulness merge into a provocative, yet compelling way for understanding yourself and the world. In short, you realize your innate perfection. Vigilance of the Heart offers an innovative approach to self-realization, achievement, and well-being in all facets of life. Vigilance of the Heart provides a digital Workbook which covers the fifty-one activities highlighted and described in the book. The Workbook is available for purchase at https://www.roy-horan.com for US$9.99.
