The raid, Operation Eagle Claw, was risky to say the least. US forces would have to fly into the deserts of Iran on C-130s  marry up with carrier-based RH-53D helicopters  fly to hide sites near Tehran  approach the Embassy via trucks  seize the Embassy and rescue the hostages  board the helicopters descending on Tehran  fly to an airbase captured by more US forces  and then fly out on C-141s and to freedom.\r\n\r\n Unfortunately, and unsurprisingly given the complexity of the mission, things went wrong from the start and when the mission was called off at the refueling site at Desert One, the resulting collision between aircraft killed eight US personnel.   This title tells the full story of this tragic operation, supported by maps, photographs, and specially-commissioned bird's-eye-views and battlescenes which reveal the complexity and scale of the proposed rescue and the disaster which followed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen possible we will add details of the items we are selling to help buyers know what is included in the item for sale.
