Join Red Velvet Media as we talk to David Burnett about his new book “Making A Nightstalker”David Burnett’s Making A Night Stalker,Rare Insight into The Elite 160th SOAR NIGHTSTALKERS.

David Burnett takes readers into a unique world of the 160th Special Operations Aviation regiment. His journey starts in a conventional Army unit where he doesn’t feel fulfilled in his duties and obligations. This lack of responsibility drives David to pursue the dream of becoming an MH-47G Chinook helicopter crew chief in the most secretive and elite aviation unit in the world.

David Burnett was born and raised in Parker, Colorado. After a few semesters of college he decided it wasn't for him and he enlisted in the Army in 2008. He was stationed with 563rd ASB as a 15U (Chinook Helicopter repairer). After realizing his job in the regular Army wasn’t as fulfilling as he had hoped, he applied for 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment SOAR. After making it through the unit's five-week selection process he began his journey as a Special Operations crew chief. He went through countless years of training and deployed with the unit five times before deciding he wasn't going to reenlist. He put pen to paper after receiving an honorable discharge from the unit and began writing. He invented and patented a clamp intended to be used on the very aircraft he crewed on, and runs the day to day in his pre-revenue company Tac-Clamp. He finished his Bachelors in Business management after being discharged. In his free time he enjoys golf and snowboarding.
