Delta operator Major Norm Lawrence stepped away from his past and only thinks about the next mission, until Tyra crosses his path.

Book Synopsis That Sheep May Safely Graze by : David M. Sherman
Download or read book That Sheep May Safely Graze written by David M. Sherman and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The very mention of Afghanistan conjures images of war, international power politics, the opium trade, and widespread corruption. Yet the untold story of Afghanistan’s seemingly endless misfortune is the disruptive impact that prolonged conflict has had on ordinary rural Afghans, their culture, and the timeless relationship they share with their land and animals. In rural Afghanistan, when animals die, livelihoods are lost, families and communities suffer, and people may perish. That Sheep May Safely Graze details a determined effort, in the midst of war, to bring essential veterinary services to an agrarian society that depends day in and day out on the well-being and productivity of its animals, but which, because of decades of war and the disintegration of civil society, had no reliable access to even the most basic animal health care. The book describes how, in the face of many obstacles, a dedicated group of Afghan and expatriate veterinarians working for a small nongovernmental organization (NGO) in Kabul was able to create a national network of over 400 veterinary field units staffed by over 600 veterinary paraprofessionals. These paravets were selected by their own communities and then trained and outfitted by the NGO so that nearly every district in the country that needed basic veterinary services now has reliable access to such services. Most notably, over a decade after its inception and with Afghanistan still in free fall, this private sector, district-based animal health program remains vitally active. The community-based veterinary paraprofessionals continue to provide quality services to farmers and herders, protecting their animals from the ravages of disease and improving their livelihoods, despite the political upheavals and instability that continue to plague the country. The elements contributing to this sustainability and their application to programs for improved veterinary service delivery in developing countries beyond Afghanistan are described in the narrative.
Book Synopsis A-10 Thunderbolt II Units of Operation Enduring Freedom 2008-14 by : Gary Wetzel
Download or read book A-10 Thunderbolt II Units of Operation Enduring Freedom 2008-14 written by Gary Wetzel and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The untold story of A-10 units in Operation Enduring Freedom reaches its conclusion with this second of two volumes focusing on the type's combat missions in Afghanistan. Featuring numerous first-hand accounts and photography from those who experienced the conflict, along with imagery from official military archives, this book offers a unique and detailed insight into the record of the A-10 in one of the 21st Century's most significant conflicts. Initially, the A-10 Thunderbolt was not a favourite of the USAF, which, prior to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990, was hoping to shunt this Cold War relic onto the US Army and Marine Corps. But since then the 'Warthog', with its formidable armament, ruggedness and flexibility, has continually proven itself in combat and evolved into the world's premiere close support aircraft. In 2002 the Thunderbolt was at the forefront of Operation Enduring Freedom, the US occupation of Afghanistan.

Book Synopsis Migration : The Biology of Life on the Move by : Davis Hugh Dingle Professor in the Department of Entomology and Center for Population Biology University of California
Download or read book Migration : The Biology of Life on the Move written by Davis Hugh Dingle Professor in the Department of Entomology and Center for Population Biology University of California and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996-01-18 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migration is one of the most fascinating and dramatic of all animal behaviors. Historically, however, the study of migration has been fragmented, with ornithologists, entomologists, and marine biologists paying little attention to work outside their own fields. This treatment of the subject shows how comparisons across taxa can in fact illuminate migratory life cycles and the relation of migration to other movements. The book thus takes an integrated ecological perspective, focusing on migration as a biological phenomenon. The work is divided into four parts, each with a brief introductory section. Part I defines migration, gives examples, and places migration in the spectrum of movement behaviors, concluding with a chapter on methods for its study. Part II focuses on proximate mechanisms, including physiology and morphology (and the constraints associated with them), the interactions between migration and wind and current patterns, and the various orientation and navigation mechanisms by which migrants find their way about. Part III on the evolution of migratory life histories addresses the evolutionary and ecological basis for migration and the roles of migration not only in the lives of organisms, but also in the ecological communities in which they live. Part IV is devoted to a brief consideration of migration and its relation to pest management and conservation. As a major contribution to a vital subject, this work will be valued by all researchers and students in the field of animal behavior, ecology, and zoology.

Book excerpt: “MarieLouise... Marie,” his voice changes promptly into a more serious tone, “here is my problem...” He taps his pen on the table, seemingly doubtful how to end that sentence. “I only have men in the cockpit… This means you could be the sole female flight deck crew member...” When the 24-year-old, slightly addicted to Diet Coke, independent, noisily headstrong, and oddly tainted with the peculiar need to constantly feel alive, walks into the headquarters of Denim Air; life is about to change––drastically. She lands her dream job; however, navigating the heavily male-dominated world of aviation while also overcoming the burdens of childhood trauma, the brutalities of the Afghan war, and the consequences of prejudices brings unexpected challenges and trials she never thought she would ever have to face. Everything seems fine until her world suddenly turns pitch-black, and the way back to the light seems almost beyond the bounds of possible. For decades, she’s been silent… and now she’s done biting her tongue.

Book Synopsis Searching Sand Crabs in the Dark by : Terry Douglas
Download or read book Searching Sand Crabs in the Dark written by Terry Douglas and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-03 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Searching Sand Crabs in the Dark recounts a journey inward-a spiral down-of someone who has spent a career meeting the challenges of global chaos in the service of the government and private sector. Terry's experience of joy, loss, pain, and celebration, captured in the poems, is anchored in centering prayer-a prayer of silence and meditation. The spirituality of the Christian mystics-Meister Eckhardt, John Main, and Bede Griffiths-joins the inspiration of Sufism, Zen Buddhism, and Shamanism to create a life tapestry. From riding a crest of a wave in an ocean kayak crashing toward the shore, observing the unfolding of a rose from cramped quarters in Kabul, leaning into a Nor'easter and learning trust in the process, Terry brings the no-space of pre-utterance to the surface in the rhythm, color, and harmony of verse to form a portal back into the soul to re-discover Love.
