The Black Army Oficer, the Untold Story, from 1947 fo 1999. The desegregation Process began with the establishment of Seventeen Army ROTC Units at Historical 1890 Morrill Act Black colleges located in the Southern States. The training began with the fieshman students as early as 1943. Four years later, these graduates were Commissioned second Lieutenants in the Infantry. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed Executive Order 9981 that established policies to integrate the Armed Forces of the United States of America. The book documents this historic event and its impact on young black male college students who attended Prairie View A&M University and were commissioned Second Lieutenants from 1947-to-1 999. Information was gathered from the Prairie View A & M University Library Archives, Military Science Department records, 1890 College Representatives from Prairie View A&MU and University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. Eighteen autobiographies were collected and there were numerous interviews with class members. From 1947-1 999, 1,398 commissioned Second Lieutenants were catalogue. Six Generals were promoted from this group. Pictures of the first PVAM U President, first PMST and other historical pictures taken by the author are used to complement this work. Clyde McQueen is a World War II Veteran and 1950 graduate of Prairie View A&M College. He was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the infantry fifty seven years ago and Veteran of the Korean War. He chose Prairie View A&M University for this study because of the access to data that told the story of the black army officer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1944 Major Marion “Ryan” McCown Jr., an earnest young Marine Corps pilot, came under attack by enemy fire and went down with his plane, lost to the dense jungle of Papua New Guinea. Some sixty years later, Major George Eyster V would find himself in the same sweltering and nearly impenetrable rain forest searching for evidence of MIAs. Coming from a long line of military officers dating back to the Revolutionary War, army service was Eyster’s family legacy. After a disillusioning tour of duty in Iraq and almost ending his army career, he accepts a posting to JPAC instead, an elite division whose sole mission is to bring all fallen soldiers home to the country for which they gave their lives. While Eyster’s search for McCown proves difficult, what emerges at the end of the unforgettable mission is an inspiring true tale of loss and redemption.

Folke Bernadotte did so by negotiating with the enemy — shaking hands with Heinrich Himmler, the head of the Gestapo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second installment of this richly imagined fantasy adventure series, a new threat from within the Library could destroy those who depend upon it the most. The Library of the Unwritten in Hell was saved from total devastation, but hundreds of potential books were destroyed. Former librarian Claire and Brevity the muse feel the loss of those stories, and are trying to adjust to their new roles within the Arcane Wing and Library, respectively. But when the remains of those books begin to leak a strange ink, Claire realizes that the Library has kept secrets from Hell--and from its own librarians. Claire and Brevity are immediately at odds in their approach to the ink, and the potential power that it represents has not gone unnoticed. When a representative from the Muses Corps arrives at the Library to advise Brevity, the angel Rami and the erstwhile Hero hunt for answers in other realms. The true nature of the ink could fundamentally alter the afterlife for good or ill, but it entirely depends on who is left to hold the pen.

Book excerpt: There are many broad studies of the Vietnam War, but this work offers an insight into the harrowing experiences of just a small number of men from a single unit, deep in the jungles of Vietnam and Cambodia.

Sabo and other replacement soldiers in Bravo Company, 3rd Battalion, 506th Infantry (Currahees), 101st Airborne Division, were involved in intense, bloody engagements such as the battle for Hill 474 and the Mother's Day Ambush. Beginning with their deployment at the height of the blistering Tet Offensive, and using military records and interviews with surviving soldiers, Eric Poole recreates the terror of combat amidst the jungles and rice paddies of Vietnam.
