Book excerpt: Black & White Edition Desert Storm Diary is an insightful account of the first Persion Gulf War as witnessed by a reserve officer from North Dakota. Carefully detailed with entries from Col. Franklin Hook's wartime diary, the book captures the experiences of this physician and Army reservist called up and charged with command of the 311th Evacuation Hospital. Col. Hook's riveting report includes caring for patients in a combat zone and flying Medevac missions, while navigating problems with higher headquarters and negotiating with Arab Muslim civilians. Desert Storm Diary documents the chronology of the war, including its major battles, its leaders and its countless heroes. Desert Storm Diary also captures a story beyond military history as it unfolds as a family memoir recounting the Gulf War experiences of Hook's two sons, Bill and Paul, both deployed overseas at the same time and serving as a B-52 pilot and an Abrams M1-A1 tank platoon commander respectively. Bill and Paul's stories are featured as father-son interviews, and Col. Hook captures the spirit of a father's simultaneous pride and concern as he documents Bill's role in the last B-52 mission over Baghdad and describes his own angst over hearing a serviceman from North Dakota was missing after a B-52 bombing run. Col. Hook's memoir closes with an epilogue of informative perspective, "Reflections and the Ten Commandments of Muslim Diplomacy."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women have been actively involved the United States military for more than fifty years, but the ban on their participation in combat remains a hotly debated issue. In this provocative book Lorry M. Fenner, an active-duty Air Force intelligence officer, calls for opening all aspects of military service to women. Marie deYoung, a former Army chaplain, argues that keeping women out of combat is in the best interests of both sexes and crucial to the effectiveness of the military as a whole. Fenner bases her argument for inclusion of women on the idea that democracies require all citizens to compete in public endeavor and share in civic obligation. She contends that, historically, reasons for banning women from combat have been culturally biased. She argues that membership in a combat force should be based on capability judged against appropriate standards. Moreover, she maintains that excluding women hampers the diversity and adaptability that by necessity will characterize the armed forces in the twenty-first century. In contrast, deYoung declares that the different physical fitness standards for men and women would, in combat, lower morale for both sexes and put women at risk of casualty. Further, she contends that women have neither the physical or emotional strength to endure the overall brutality of the combat experience. She also asserts that calls for lifting the combat ban are politically motivated and are inconsistent with the principles of American democracy and the mission of national defense. With each author responding to the views of the other, their exchange offers a valuable synthesis of the issues surrounding a longstanding debate among policymakers, military personnel, and scholars of both military history and women’s studies.

Download or read book Desert Storm written by Joseph B. George and published by 1st Book Library. This book was released on 2003-12 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For all of the chest-pounding politicians and overheated pundits who are quick to recommend war, Desert Storm: Dreadnought should be required reading. That's not to say the slim memoir by former soldier Joseph B. George is perfect. It lacks depth and the writing tends to wander without fully exploring the incredible scenes it sets forth. Yet it is that very lack of sophistication and device that makes the book feel instantly raw and authentic. George was a young soldier sent to Desert Storm the first Gulf War, the supposedly "easy" one played out on TV like a video game. Yet for those on the front lines, battling in a foreign land, amid confusion and fear, along with a growing realization that the "enemy" was not so different than they were, there was nothing easy about it. One lovely scene occurs when George is separated from his unit and happens upon a young Arab boy who invites him home to dine with his family. George's real trouble starts when he returns home and feels disenfranchised from his former life. He drinks too much, fights too much, and cannot shake the feeling he is being stalked by an unseen enemy. He finds it hard to leave his couch. "Life after Desert Storm," he writes, "is far worse than combat itself. I left Desert Storm a changed man, and everyone knew it but me." He also experiences strange physical reactions; he cannot walk up stairs or play basketball without being short of breath or feeling muscle pain all symptoms of what is now called "Gulf War Syndrome," which struck thousands of soldiers who were exposed to high levels of toxicity when stashes of Iraqi chemical weapons were blown up. While readers may be left frustrated that the book does not more fully explore George's war experience and its aftermath, it does its job in stripping away the myth that soldiers walk away from any war unscathed. -BlueInk Review

Download or read book Story Of The Gulf War written by Syreeta Kaszinski and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a rare glimpse into the real-time thoughts of a soldier - a junior Intelligence Officer thrown into the front lines of history. This book breaks relatively new ground in demonstrating the traumatizing effect war can have on our female soldiers, sailors, marines, and air warriors. Why is this an important read? Desert Storm was the precursor of the wars to come; the wars that have so far consumed many years of the opening of the 21st Century where more and more women combatants are taking on key roles in waging our nation's wars; and they are consequently bearing both the physical and psychological wounds of war. The author takes the readers informatively through the stateside buildup, her deployment, the Desert Shield phase, and the counterattack of the ground phase of Desert Storm. As a combat intelligence officer, her war began before infantry boots and armored treads rolled up Iraqi forces on the sands of Kuwait. Her unit was responsible for analyzing the terrain, identifying enemy troop positions, and key enemy command and control targets, supply depots, and lines of communications, all of which were necessary for the pre-invasion and invasion softening-up activities. Read this book if you seek a new and different perspective on war. Read it, especially if you are one of the growing-band of women war-fighters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive, up-to-date reference on general and subspecialty gynecology. Covering all aspects of gynecology commonly encountered in day-to-day practice, this exhaustive and fully updated new edition provides a practical, one-stop reference work for clinicians working in the field. This carefully-designed volume includes ten sections, beginning with comprehensive coverage of office-based gynecology, and continuing on to present disease processes and management information by patient age group. Each chapter includes background information, current recommendations for screening, diagnostic criteria, common and uncommon associated problems, approach to diagnosis, summary of treatment options, and an overview of ICD-10 codes for specific diagnoses. Importantly, many areas that are covered in the handbook as subspecialty problems are pertinent and important information to many of the general practitioners who handle and develop some expertise in these areas. These include ovulation induction, medical management of incontinence, management of abnormal Pap smears, and work-up of abnormal bleeding. The handbook concludes with an easy-to-navigate presentation of minimally-invasive operations, surgical procedures, neoplasms, and pathology. Advantages and risks associated with management of particular diseases are covered, along with multiple tips for avoiding complications. This second edition is fully updated. With extensive updates on cervical cancer screening, pelvic organ prolapse, and more, many chapters will be completely rewritten to reflect the latest guidelines, procedures, and methods of care in women’s health. The text additionally includes two new chapters, covering the impact of COVID on gynecology care, and the work-up and surgical management of chronic pelvic pain. This is an ideal guide for practicing gynecologists, family and internal medicine physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, fellows, residents, medical students, and all women’s health care providers.
