On the 50th anniversary of the creation of the "Topgun" Navy Fighter School, its founder shares the remarkable inside story of how he and eight other risk-takers revolutionized the art of aerial combat."If you loved the movie, you will love the real story in the book." -- Fox & Friends
When American fighter jets were being downed at an unprecedented rate during the Vietnam War, the U.S. Navy turned to a young lieutenant commander, Dan Pedersen, to figure out a way to reverse their dark fortune. On a shoestring budget and with little support, Pedersen picked eight of the finest pilots to help train a new generation to bend jets like the F-4 Phantom to their will and learn how to dogfight all over again. What resulted was nothing short of a revolution -- one that took young American pilots from the crucible of combat training in the California desert to the blistering skies of Vietnam, in the process raising America's Navy combat kill ratio from two enemy planes downed for every American plane lost to more than 22 to 1. Topgun emerged not only as an icon of America's military dominance immortalized by Hollywood but as a vital institution that would shape the nation's military strategy for generations to come. Pedersen takes readers on a colorful and thrilling ride -- from Miramar to Area 51 to the decks of aircraft carriers in war and peace-through a historic moment in air warfare. He helped establish a legacy that was built by him and his "Original Eight" -- the best of the best -- and carried on for six decades by some of America's greatest leaders. Topgun is a heartfelt and personal testimony to patriotism, sacrifice, and American innovation and daring.

So excited for results, feels like it’s working!
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 4
First time trying them right now as delivered today. Originally thought was supposed to wear all night but glad to find out 30 minutes just because my dog sleeps on my feet over my sheets! These silicone socks feel great and I trim my toe nails short enough they seem very durable and unlikely to rip like the pic review shows. I am confident my feet and heels will much smoother after first time wearing! I do have acrylic nails so I will be careful
Putting the silicone socks on and off. Just as easy as the video the spread the lotion inside the socks and rub it around, mess free!!

Actually, better than I expected!
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 4
These are better than what I was expecting based on the reviews. I do put them on carefully because someone said you can’t tear them so I’m careful putting them on, but they almost don’t feel like you’re wearing anything as long as you don’t put them too tight on your toes. I can put lotion on my feet and I know it has to soak in because there’s no place else for it to go like socks or my bed.

So so...
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 2
They do what they advertised.
You can NOT walk in them you will stretch them and pop a hole in them.
You cannot sleep in them unless your going to wear larger cotton socks with them to keep them in place. They are easy to wash and dry which is nice. I will need to buy another pair. Great if your gonna watch a movie or binge TV in.
