I think a cleaner way to do this is to modify the array of viewControllers and then set them back on the navigation controller like this..

if let nav = self.navigationController {
    var stack = nav.viewControllers
    // index starts at 0 so page three index is 2
    stack.removeAtIndex(2)
    stack.removeAtIndex(3)
    nav.setViewControllers(stack, animated: true)
}

I just tested this on one of my navigation stacks and the back button was retained, I assume this is due to the setViewControllers method doing it's thing and setting up the stack for you.
