Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ernie Pyle's writings about Soldiers during World War II were always an inspiration during my career as a feature broadcaster and writer. Full of flavor about "GI" life, I followed Mr. Pyle's example of accompanying Soldiers during training and participating as much as possible. This magic formula never failed to promote understanding and appreciation of the demands and sacrifice of Soldier life. Hearing first hand accounts of the Pearl Harbor attack and the Doolittle Raid that followed; walking along the water's edge at Omaha and Utah Beaches with WWII Soldiers who stormed the shores on June 6, 1944 and accompanying paratroopers to towns like Sainte Mere-Elise where they parachuted in the night before; and exploring other memorable accounts such as prisoners-of war considerably deepened my appreciation and admiration for the "Greatest Generation." Applying the same "Ernie Pyle writing strategy" made all the difference in writing about them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you fall in love with someone serving in the Armed Forces, it’s hard to imagine the impact their career will have on your life. In Don’t Say Goodbye, Fiona Stanford tells the untold story of the people left behind when our soldiers go off to fight. She reveals the hidden side to modern conflict – the story of the families, but in particular the wives, girlfriends, mothers and children – how it feels to live on a knife edge, bombarded with 24-hour news and footage of the war, and the constant terror that the next death you hear about on the television or the radio might be your loved one. Through tales of the Army lifestyle, she explains the reply to the age old question: ‘How do you cope?’ which is usually: ‘You just get on with it’ Fiona’s husband handed over command of the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards to Lt Col Rupert Thorneloe before they deployed to Afghanistan in 2009, During the tour seven of their men were killed, including Rupert, and many were wounded. Here she shares the rewards and challenges of Army life – the desperate goodbyes with young children in tow, the bittersweet sense of pride and the huge relief of homecoming. She also tells of other goodbyes; to friends when ‘posted on’, to children when they go away to school and the ultimate goodbye, revealing the heartache of families whose loved ones do not return. This is a story of love – how love can survive and even grow when couples are separated by thousands of miles and days of anguish. Don’t Say Goodbye sheds light on the unique camaraderie that develops amongst the women as they pull each other through the toughest of times. Poignant, inspiring and deeply moving, this book is a tribute to the women and families that support our heroes on the frontline.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My new boss is a former fighter pilot -- and it should be illegal to be that hot. But this city-boy condo builder doesn't know the first thing about construction in a place like Kasper Ridge. Will hired me to oversee the renovation at the old Kasper Ridge Resort - a job that will make my company and guarantee that Papa can live comfortably to a very old age. I just need to keep my eyes on the prize. And the prize is not Will Cruz's ocean blue eyes or those rock-hard abs. Besides, all those muscles and that killer smile are temporary. I've lived in the mountains long enough to know that slick city boys don't stick around for the long run. So I tell myself the things I need to hear to stay strong, hold firm, maintain my distance. Until Will kisses me one night and I forget pretty much everything I'd been telling myself about protecting my heart. I know it's only a fling, but what if there's a chance Will Cruz is the one? What if I give him my heart, and he doesn't stay?

Book excerpt: Is love enough? Ava Steel is haunted by a ghost that has come back from the grave. She questions who she is and whether she’s capable of being in a relationship with Brendan Murphy, the man she loves. As she shuts down her bakery—something she never does—to deal with these newly discovered secrets, she shuts down her relationship with Brendan as well. Brendan doesn’t want to let Ava go, but he’s dealing with his own issues. As his connection to the Steel family is finally revealed, he and the townspeople of Snow Creek face a financial crisis—one the Steels can’t help them solve. As more and more secrets are unburied from both Ava’s and Brendan’s past, they fight to find their way back together. But the obstacles are large and seem insurmountable.

Book excerpt: The Lord’s Prayer unites Christians throughout history, speaking across the divides of language, place, and tradition. The oldest prayer of the church, it continues to speak to the lived reality of believers around the world, while inviting the body of Christ into a deeper understanding of the nature of God, discipleship, and the calling to holistic mission. Ama Namin brings together the voices of Filipino evangelical scholars in a profound work of contextual and biblical theology. Each chapter explores a portion of the Lord’s Prayer against the backdrop of Scripture and the foreground of Philippine life and spirituality. Contributors examine the rich history of the Lord’s Prayer in the Philippines – a history dating back to the first printed translation in 1593 – as well as its implications for the Philippines’ future, providing the church a foundation for public engagement and social transformation. Ama Namin provides a valuable teaching resource for the Philippine church and for all those longing to deepen their understanding of prayer, the contextualization of Scripture, and the love of the heavenly Father.

Download or read book Underage and Under Fire written by Allan C. Stover and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-06-07 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work tells the personal stories of boys and girls who left home and enlisted in the U.S. military at ages 11 to 16. Many had difficult home lives, some wanted adventure or a better future, but all wanted to serve their country. They missed high school proms, adolescent years with family and friends, homecoming parades, and graduation ceremonies. They served aboard ships and submarines, on airplanes, and at faraway bases and battlefields. Some became prisoners of war. Many performed above and beyond. Jack Lucas earned the Medal of Honor at Iwo Jima six days past his 17th birthday. Calvin Graham enlisted at age 12 and was wounded at Guadalcanal aboard the USS South Dakota. His story was made into a movie starring Rick Schroder. A 13-year-old girl enlisted but was later discovered and sent home from Europe. General Eisenhower told her, "Go home and grow up, little girl, we need more soldiers like you." One underage veteran became a senator, another, a governor, still another a Chief of Naval Operations. This book reveals why and how they got in, and what happened to them when they were there.

Book excerpt: ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT speaks directly with a warning for today.

With a minimal set, minimal props, and an unconventional time frame that jumps chronological order, the play sweeps from the women's teen years through adulthood during WWII and beyond. The Nazi Regime impacts the women's lives as they struggle over work, religion, marriage, and motherhood. Making overwhelmingly hard choices, they survive or succumb to Hitler's reign and are ultimately changed forever.
