Download or read book Backbone written by Ph.D. Julia Dye and published by Warriors Publishing Group via PublishDrive. This book was released on 2019-05-22 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noncommissioned officers stand as the backbone of the United States Marine Corps. The Corps is among the most lasting institutions in America, though few understand what makes it so strong and how that understanding can be applied effectively in today’s world. In this insightful and thoroughly researched book, Julia Dye explores the cadre of noncommissioned officers that make up the Marine Corps’ system of small-unit leadership. To help us better understand what makes these extraordinary men and women such effective leaders, Dye examines the fourteen leadership traits embraced by every NCO. These qualities— including judgment, enthusiasm, determination, bearing, and unselfishness—are exemplified by men like Terry Anderson, the former Marine sergeant who spent nearly seven years as a hostage in Beirut, John Basilone, the hero of the Pacific, and many others. To assemble this extraordinary chronicle, Julia Dye interviewed Anderson and dozens of other Marines, mining a rich trove of historical and modern NCO heroes that comprise the Marine Corps’ astonishing legacy, from its founding in 1775 to the present day.

A demonic curse is secretly unleashed upon Seven Mile after an evil devil cult leader moves his flock from Indiana to the tiny little town to hold an extraordinary and fascinating "church service". All in attendance become stricken with an evil affliction that leads to a brutal murder, a disgraceful prank, and the obsession of a game - setting off events that divide this once peaceful town and disrupt the lives of two generations.

On one side of the river live the RIVER RATS, and on the other, the BLUE CATS. Anyone who dares to cross the lonely Seven Mile Bridge to the other side suffers harsh and brutal punishment for their betrayal. Can the children of Seven Mile, who strive for peace, finally reunite the town? Or will their possessed parents, who are hell-bent on keeping Seven Mile divided, continue their torturous and tormenting ways?
