Book excerpt: K9 Commando: Police and Army Dogs from New York to Berlin Dogs have much to teach us humans about selflessness, loyalty and incorruptibility. As crime-fighters aiding the police, Special Forces dogs, in particular, heed the call of duty with all the courage that their owners and fellow officers have. Author Violetta Kovacs presents 12 true and touching stories of these brave, tough, smart and beautiful animals in her latest book, K9 Commando: Police and Army Dogs from New York to Berlin. Kovacs gives a voice to those brave and honorable officers of the K9 variety who cannot speak for themselves. Her tales of their exploits demonstrate what extraordinary creatures they are. For thousands of years, man and his four-legged best friend have had a special bond. As guide dogs for the blind, search-and-rescue dogs for the lost, sheep dogs for shepherds or simply companions for ordinary people, dogs have always taken their place at their masters' sides. This bond is no more apparent than with the Special Forces K9 officers Kovacs honors with K9 Commando. The touching stories in the book prove without a doubt that a dog is not just an animal. It testifies to the truly deep and honest emotional relationship between a police officer and his dog.
Book Synopsis How I Became a K9 Commando by : Laura Miller
Download or read book How I Became a K9 Commando written by Laura Miller and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story about a Dutch-born puppy and her journey to become a member of the greatest fighting force in the world ...Learn about adversity, dedication, gratitude, love, and sacrifice through the eyes of a Special Operations Forces K-9. The story is about a dog named Patty, who talks about her Dutch upbringing and how she "tried out" for the most elite military unit in the world and made it! She explains her specialized training and how she was injured in the war, her recovery and her retirement. She also talks about biting bad guys....YES! She wants everyone to know that she is doing her job and maybe a bite is not as bad as a bullet? She also talks about sacrifice, gratitude, and death. Special Operations Forces (SOF) multi-purpose canines (MPC) are not traditional military working dogs (MWD). Unlike traditional MWDs that have been around since the First World War, SOF MPCs have only been around since 1998 and not publicly known about until around 2005. What makes these dogs so special is the amount of time and training that goes into each dog, usually years before they actually deploy. They are not gate guards, narcotic detectors or single purpose dogs with a few months of training. They are typically patrol and explosive detection dogs that can work off-leash, and make "decisions" without a handler instructing their every move. There is much more to it than that, but this IS a kid's book! The dogs are loved and are valuable assets to the unit and men. They are never sacrificed and every attempt is made to accomplish the mission without harming the dogs. When a dog is MIA or KIA, not only his handler feels the loss but the entire community. The intent of "How I Became a K9 Commando" is to share our love for these dogs and show some of the remarkable things they can do. Also, if we can educate the public a bit, teach children about sacrifice and gratitude and hopefully raise some funds to continue our goal of honoring SOF handlers and their dogs, then we have succeeded!

Book excerpt: In June of 1991, Jeffrey Scott Franklin received his first tutorial on aggressive working dogs from me. Jeff was not yet twenty years old when we first met. He had just returned home from active duty as a Marine Tank Operator during the Desert Storm War. Franklin worked closely with me as a professional dog-trainer for more than a decade while serving as a K-9 Officer, before he was once again called to duty by his country. Whether he knew it or not, Jeff committed to making history in 2004 when he agreed to develop a "top tier" Canine Commando program for the preeminent branch of the United States Military. Franklin's dog-training skills were put to the test as he turned extraordinary dogs and exceptional men into the world's foremost K-9 combat teams. Developing his own canine-selection criteria and training protocols, Jeff created the ultimate war-dog for the "high octane" demands of covert operations. Follow the Commando Dogs into battle as they confront terrorists and revolutionaries deep into hostile territory. Subduing the enemy while fighting against the odds is what Franklin's specialized teams due best. This is a narrative about the enduring relationship between man and dog. This is a story of "good" against "evil." This is the dramatic tale of my friend, Jeffrey Scott Franklin.

Download or read book Women and the Military written by Ruth Margolies Beitler and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This addition to the Women and Society around the World series explores the roles, challenges, and accomplishments of women in the military in countries across the globe. Around the world, millions of men serve in their countries' militaries, be it on land, on the seas, or in the air. But while many militaries have opened all positions to women, even those on the front lines, others remain closed. Countries have cited a number of reasons for their policies, including changing views of women and the military, conscription, and economic and demographic trends. Written by a professor of comparative politics at the United States Military Academy at West Point and an active duty army major, this book seeks to provide an understanding of women's roles in militaries around the world. The book is organized by region, exploring societal and cultural views of masculinity and war, as well as factors influencing changing views of women and the military, including conscription and economic and demographic trends. Topics also include sexual harassment, recruitment, and views on women's physicality and strength. High school students, undergraduates, and general readers will find this cross-cultural study a fascinating and important resource.
