Book excerpt: Five Million Troops Battle for Beijing.... Three Chinese armies swarmed across the trace, with T-59s providing covering fire. Into the bulge created by the sudden onslaught raced the Chinese armor, T-60 tanks with 85mm guns, and behind the T-60s over 90,000 PLA regular frontline troops rushed like ants upon the Americans who were bogged down in the typhoon. Through the waning downpour, the American A-10 Thurnderbolts came in low, their RAU-B Avenger 30mm seven-barreled rotary cannon spitting out a deadly stream of depleted uranium, white-hot fragments that set off the tank's ammunition and fuel tanks into great blowouts of orange-black flame. Four sleek, eighteen-foot long Tomahawk cruise missiles reached the China coast at six hundred miles an hour, hugging the beach at an altitude of twenty feet, then began their contoured, computer-guided flight toward their target three hundred miles away—Beijing. It is Armageddon in Asia.

Download or read book By Force of Arms written by Paul Keenan and published by Vij Books India Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burma has been racked by extensive ethnic conflict. As numerous groups sought to secure their individual ethnic rights, successive Burmese governments sought to destroy them through numerous counter-insurgency measures, negotiated ceasefires, and by integrating them into Burma Army controlled Border Guard Forces or militias. ‘By Force of Arms' provides background information on the numerous armed ethnic groups that have emerged in the country since independence. It highlights the various reasons for conflict and argues that while military force has been successfully used in preserving ethnic rights, as the country moves forward, new methods have to be explored. It states that for genuine peace to be attained, armed ethnic groups need to reassess their methodologies and motivations and both the Government and Non-State Armed Actors need to hold substantive political dialogue before there can be genuine peace.

Book Synopsis The New Zealand Expeditionary Force in World War II by : Wayne Stack
Download or read book The New Zealand Expeditionary Force in World War II written by Wayne Stack and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1939 more than 140,000 New Zealanders enlisted to fight overseas during World War II. Of these, 104,000 served in the Second New Zealand Expeditionary Force. Initially thrown into the doomed campaign to halt the German blitzkrieg on Greece and Crete (1941), the division was rebuilt under the leadership of MajGen Sir Bernard Freyberg, and became the elite corps within Montgomery's Eighth Army in the desert. After playing a vital role in the victory at El Alamein (1942) the 'Kiwis' were the vanguard of the pursuit to Tunisia. In 1943–45 the division was heavily engaged in the Italian mountains, especially at Cassino (1944); it ended the war in Trieste. Meanwhile, a smaller NZ force supported US forces against the Japanese in the Solomons and New Guinea (1942–44). Fully illustrated with specially commissioned colour plates, this is the story of the Second New Zealand Expeditionary Force's vital contribution to Allied victory in World War II.

Book Synopsis Arms and Influence by : Thomas C. Schelling
Download or read book Arms and Influence written by Thomas C. Schelling and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This is a brilliant and hardheaded book. It will frighten those who prefer not to dwell on the unthinkable and infuriate those who have taken refuge in stereotypes and moral attitudinizing.”—Gordon A. Craig, New York Times Book Review Originally published more than fifty years ago, this landmark book explores the ways in which military capabilities—real or imagined—are used, skillfully or clumsily, as bargaining power. Anne-Marie Slaughter’s new introduction to the work shows how Schelling’s framework—conceived of in a time of superpowers and mutually assured destruction—still applies to our multipolar world, where wars are fought as much online as on the ground.

Book Synopsis Brazilian Expeditionary Force in World War II by : Cesar Campiani Maximiano
Download or read book Brazilian Expeditionary Force in World War II written by Cesar Campiani Maximiano and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-20 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the English-speaking world, it is generally unknown that a volunteer Brazilian Expeditionary Force (FEB) fought alongside the US Army in Italy from mid-1944 until the end of the war. This was in effect a light infantry division, consisting of three infantry regiments augmented with artillery and light armour. It was supported by a Brazilian Air Force contingent of a light reconnaissance squadron as well as a P-47 Thunderbolt-equipped fighter squadron. Although all weapons, uniform, kit and equipment were either American-supplied or American models, there were distinctive Brazilian adaptations to uniforms and other key pieces of kit. This is a seriously researched volume on a little-studied subject matter complete with a range of previously unpublished photographs and specially commissioned artwork plates.
