Suspecting that the killer may still be near, Woodrow is drawn into the macabre cold case.

Book Synopsis The Beastly Battles Of Old England by : Nigel Cawthorne
Download or read book The Beastly Battles Of Old England written by Nigel Cawthorne and published by Piatkus. This book was released on 2011-10-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history the English have been a warlike lot. Often we fight among ourselves - there have been a good few civil wars - and when we were not slaughtering each other, we practiced on our neighbours, the Scots, the Irish, the French . . . When that got too easy, we set off around the world to find other people to fight. This was usually done with a hubris that invited some ludicrous pratfall. In THE BEASTLY BATTLES OF OLD ENGLAND, Nigel Cawthorne takes us on a darkly humorous journey through some of our ill-advised military actions. From the war over a severed ear to a general seeking out his rival's mistresses to even the score, it is a miscellany of insufferable arrogance, reckless gallantry, stunning stupidity, massive misjudgements and general beastliness.

Book Synopsis Flight Plan Africa by : John P. Cann
Download or read book Flight Plan Africa written by John P. Cann and published by Helion and Company. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the 1952 reorganization of the Portuguese Air Force from the army and naval air arms, Portugal now had an entity dedicated solely to aviation that would bring it into line with its new NATO commitment. As it proceeded to develop a competence in modern multiengine and jet fighter aircraft for its NATO role and train a professional corps of pilots, it was suddenly confronted in 1961 with fighting insurgencies in all three of its African possessions. This development forced it to acquire an entirely new and separate air force, the African air force, to address this emerging danger. This is the story of just how Portuguese leadership anticipated and dealt with this threat, and how it assembled an air force from scratch to meet it. The aircraft available at the time were largely castoffs from the larger, richer, and more sophisticated air forces of its NATO partners and not designed for counterinsurgency. Yet Portugal adapted them to the task and effectively crafted the appropriate strategies and tactics for their successful employment. The book explores the vicissitudes of procurement, an exercise fraught with anti-colonial political undercurrents, the imaginative modification and adaptation of the aircraft to fight in the African theaters, and the development of tactics, techniques, and procedures for their effective employment against an elusive, clever, and dangerous enemy. Advances in weaponry, such as the helicopter gun ship, were the outgrowth of combat needs. The acquired logistic competences assured that the needed fuel types and lubricants, spare parts, and qualified maintenance personnel were available in even the most remote African landing sites. The advanced flying skills, such as visual reconnaissance and air-ground coordinated fire support, were honed and perfected. All of these aspects and more are explored and hold lessons in the application of airpower in any insurgency today.
Book Synopsis The Black Officer Corps by : Isaac Hampton
Download or read book The Black Officer Corps written by Isaac Hampton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Armed Forces started integrating its services in 1948, and with that push, more African Americans started rising through the ranks to become officers, although the number of black officers has always been much lower than African Americans' total percentage in the military. Astonishingly, the experiences of these unknown reformers have largely gone unexamined and unreported, until now. The Black Officer Corps traces segments of the African American officers' experience from 1946-1973. From generals who served in the Pentagon and Vietnam, to enlisted servicemen and officers' wives, Isaac Hampton has conducted over seventy-five oral history interviews with African American officers. Through their voices, this book illuminates what they dealt with on a day to day basis, including cultural differences, racist attitudes, unfair promotion standards, the civil rights movement, Black Power, and the experience of being in ROTC at Historically Black Colleges. Hampton provides a nuanced study of the people whose service reshaped race relations in the U.S. Armed Forces, ending with how the military attempted to control racism with the creation of the Defense Race Relations Institute of 1971. The Black Officer Corps gives us a much fuller picture of the experience of black officers, and a place to start asking further questions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the "Second Coming of Christ a Majestic Moment," there has never been a more descriptive Bible based story of the wedding supper of the Lamb and His return to earth, charging towards it with countless thousands of saints in tow. 2 As the charge of heaven's troopers finally descended upon the perplexed soldiers of Armageddon their bewilderment then hastily triggered total disorder, within their very deranged and most confused ranks. 3 Then deepest travail soon began to sweep over them, while their brains were riddled with some real deep questions that none of them could ever begin to answer; 4 But it was also soon really clear that the Antichrist wouldn't have a chance to carry out his scheming plans; 5 And since our Living Promise finally showed up faster than he expected, all of that son of Satan's plans were then instantly blown away; 6 And as the vast armies of heaven entered into our planet's really thin atmosphere all of them knew that they would be locking horns with the follower's of Hell in a winner take all battle that would never really be fought. 7 And that epic Day of our Lord came forth exactly seven years after the golden trumpet finally signaled the glorious appearing of Christ, and the following second rapture of His very own. 8 Then it was undeniably heaven's most glorious hour of a long awaited victory, as well as Hell's fleeting moments of it's very swift defeat. 9 But it was additionally the time when Jude 1:14 would finally come to pass; For millions of thousands of saints were joyfully following behind Christ; 'twas also the real silent season when time itself seemingly stood still. 10 Then at the very moment of our exalted entry into earth's cloudy atmosphere, over the pitch black eastern skies, the four winds then instantly pulled back like they were never even there to begin with. 11 And that immediately allowed for heaven's portal to open way up, while allowing our majestic Author of Influence to swiftly ride on through along with His glowing army behind Him. 12 That was therefore the biggest climax of the ages, the highest peak of wonderful, and the very top of amazing, all rolled up together as one! Heads then shook with disbelief, while a multitude of tears from lost pitiful souls suddenly fell as rain.

Book Synopsis Imagining Future War by : Antulio J. Echevarria II
Download or read book Imagining Future War written by Antulio J. Echevarria II and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid and momentous technological changes at the turn of the 20th century forced military professionals and educated civilians to envision the future of war and warfare, especially during an age where nations found themselves aggressively competing for dominance on the world stage. Antulio J. Echevarria II offers a comparative study of these predictions to assess who got it right and why. He concludes that professionals were particularly adept at predicting the warfare of the immediate future by framing their discussions in terms of solving tactical problems, but they were much less successful at thinking of the long-term. Unburdened by the necessity of strategic problem-solving, educated amateurs were allowed more flexibility to imagine the long-term future of warfare, and, at times, proved to be remarkably accurate. Echevarria organizes his study by comparing visions of future wars on land, at sea, undersea, and in air. In each instance professionals and amateurs had their own distinctive imaginings. Among the notable speculators included in this book are science fiction author H.G. Wells and military theorist Ivan Bloch. This approach to the study of warfare is one of those rare examples of a book that can appeal to and inform a wide cross-section of readers.
Book Synopsis Native American Code Talker in World War II by : Ed Gilbert
Download or read book Native American Code Talker in World War II written by Ed Gilbert and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-20 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Were it not for the Navajo Code Talkers the Marines would never have taken Iwo Jima and other places' (Anonymous, Marine Corps signal officer). Ed Gilbert uses personal interviews with veterans to tell their fascinating story. Beginning with the first operational use of Native American languages in World War I, he explores how in World War II the US again came to employ this subtle, but powerful 'weapon.' Despite all efforts, the Japanese were never able to decode their messages and the Navajo code talkers contributed significantly to US victories in the Pacific. Approximately 400 Navajos served in this crucial role. Their legend of the 'code talker' has been celebrated by Hollywood in films, such as Windtalkers, and this book reveals the real-life story of their extraordinary involvement in World War II.
