Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorial Day, May Thirtieth, 1910 Not to glorify war nor the heroes of war was Memorial Day set apart. It was rather to impress upon us and our children the terrible price which our permanent peace has cost, and to keep constantly before us the picture of havoc and sacrifice wrought by an appeal to arms. But, while our dread and hatred of war should increase with every telling of the story which the day recalls, its proper observance should also in crease our respect and devotion for these peace-loving men and women who, with great reluctance, dared to choose the strife of war rather than 'the repose of dishonor; who hated war not less than we and whose love 'for peace was none the less, but who hated wrong and national disgrace 'more than they hated war, and who loved right and national honor -more than an unstable and dishonorable peace. Therefore let no one think that these soldiers whose memory we honor lusted for the blood s-of their fellow men or took comfort in the plunder of homes and the destruction of cities. They, far more vividly than we, saw the pity and the agony of it all, and, on battle - field and camping ground, longed anxiously for the dawn of peace. Thus, it is, that war may become its own worst enemy and its great soldiers our best heralds of peace. It was Ulysses S. Grant, the great soldier of the greatest war of all times, who wrote, Let us have peace. 'was this a chance sentence that dropped from his pen? Did the thought first occur to him after all opportunities for fighting were over? N o. It was his firm conviction, his heartfelt desire, born with him into the world, deepened by the dread and anxiety of every battle, burned into his soul by the fire of conﬂict and slaughter. We are, therefore, most fortunate that in honoring him as a great soldier, we are also honoring him as a great prophet of peace. And in thus showing our respect for our great soldier and commander, we shall also show our respect to all those brave men whose courage and devotion made the name of Grant worthy of our honor.

Joy to her peo ple in this, that in the time of greatest need of our beloved country, she raised up and sent forth to succor and to save, three of her sons who seem to have been called of God for this very work. In one of her obscure cabins Abraham Lincoln, all unknown to the world and 1to himself, was being fitted for the supreme command in the great war for the life and liberty of the Nation. In a leather store in Galena, Ulysses S. Grant was being hidden awaiting the moment in time when he would be needed to lead the armies to victory in the great cause. In the pioneer court houses of Southern Illinois, plead ing for justice for the common people, John A. Logan was being pre 'pared for the crisis when he, more than all others, should arouse, enlist, and lead the volunteer soldiers of the North, who were to play -such a large part in the struggle for national union. It 1s well that the school children should study the lives of these great men. Such as these are the morning star of hope to the young who aspire to serve their country in any day and generation. On the occasion of the one hundredth anniversary of his birth, the children were given the opportunity to study the life of Abraham Lincoln. On Memorial Day this year they may learn of the heroic deeds of John A. Logan. On Memorial Day Of 1910 they will be given the Opportunity to study the life and services of Ulysses S.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Updated to include a new chapter about the influence of social media and the Internet—the 20th anniversary edition of Bowling Alone remains a seminal work of social analysis, and its examination of what happened to our sense of community remains more relevant than ever in today’s fractured America. Twenty years, ago, Robert D. Putnam made a seemingly simple observation: once we bowled in leagues, usually after work; but no longer. This seemingly small phenomenon symbolized a significant social change that became the basis of the acclaimed bestseller, Bowling Alone, which The Washington Post called “a very important book” and Putnam, “the de Tocqueville of our generation.” Bowling Alone surveyed in detail Americans’ changing behavior over the decades, showing how we had become increasingly disconnected from family, friends, neighbors, and social structures, whether it’s with the PTA, church, clubs, political parties, or bowling leagues. In the revised edition of his classic work, Putnam shows how our shrinking access to the “social capital” that is the reward of communal activity and community sharing still poses a serious threat to our civic and personal health, and how these consequences have a new resonance for our divided country today. He includes critical new material on the pervasive influence of social media and the internet, which has introduced previously unthinkable opportunities for social connection—as well as unprecedented levels of alienation and isolation. At the time of its publication, Putnam’s then-groundbreaking work showed how social bonds are the most powerful predictor of life satisfaction, and how the loss of social capital is felt in critical ways, acting as a strong predictor of crime rates and other measures of neighborhood quality of life, and affecting our health in other ways. While the ways in which we connect, or become disconnected, have changed over the decades, his central argument remains as powerful and urgent as ever: mending our frayed social capital is key to preserving the very fabric of our society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces. Introduction The Backbone of the Armed Forces To be a member of the United States Armed Forces--to wear the uniform of the Nation and the stripes, chevrons, or anchors of the military Services--is to continue a legacy of service, honor, and patriotism that transcends generations. Answering the call to serve is to join the long line of selfless patriots who make up the Profession of Arms. This profession does not belong solely to the United States. It stretches across borders and time to encompass a culture of service, expertise, and, in most cases, patriotism. Today, the Nation's young men and women voluntarily take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and fall into formation with other proud and determined individuals who have answered the call to defend freedom. This splendid legacy, forged in crisis and enriched during times of peace, is deeply rooted in a time-tested warrior ethos. It is inspired by the notion of contributing to something larger, deeper, and more profound than one's own self. Notice: This is a printed Paperback version of the "The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces". Full version, All Chapters included. This publication is available (Electronic version) in the official website of the National Defense University (NDU). This document is properly formatted and printed as a perfect sized copy 6x9".
