Cease Buzzer

Deny, Degrade, Deceive, and Destroy – These are the objectives of the crews that flew the EA-6B “Prowler.”

“Cease Buzzer!” is the author’s description of the world of tactical Naval Aviation from the perspective of a career EA-6B pilot. Embark on a three-decade long journey with the author as he navigates through flight training and his first several fleet squadrons, takes command of an EA-6B squadron, and ultimately steers the Electronic Attack Wing of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Discover life aboard a carrier, amusing port visits, engaging training detachments, and an array of high-intensity liberty experiences. Beyond the personal anecdotes, this book also sheds light on combat actions in Serbia, Kosovo, and Iraq, and provides a distinctive viewpoint on land-based EA-6B combat support in Afghanistan.

“Cease Buzzer!” is the author’s attempt to capture some of his best Naval Aviation “sea stories” before they all fade away.
