Download or read book The Medic written by Adam Palmer and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During WWII, a young man from Lynchburg, Virginia was drafted into the Army and sent to the 77th Infantry Division. When he arrived at camp for basic training, he promptly made it known that he was a pacifist and would be unwilling to take a life or even so much as touch a weapon. He did however say that he would be proud to serve his country as a medic, if they would let him. No matter how much pressure the Army applied, the medic was unwilling to compromise his convictions. The other soldiers in his unit came to hate the conscientious objector, going so far as to throw their boots at him while he knelt by his bunk at night to pray. When the men of Company B assaulted "Hacksaw Ridge" on the island of Okinawa, something happened that would change their opinion of the medic forever.
Download or read book The Medic written by Claire E. Swedberg and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry Chamberlain was one of the longest-term prisoners of war in World War II. Taken prisoner in the American surrender at Bataan in April 1942, he remained in Japanese captivity until September 1945. During three and a half years of imprisonment, as a medic he was a unique and unfortunate witness to the horrors and terrors the Japanese inflicted on their prisoners during the Bataan Death March and at the notorious Cabanatuan prison camp, where for two years he tended to the sick and wounded, all too often without medicine. In October 1944 the Japanese put Chamberlain on a “hell ship” to forced labor in sugar cane fields in Formosa (now Taiwan) and again, in January 1945, to a Mitsubishi lead and zinc mine in Japan. U.S. military forces reached the camp in September 1945, liberating Chamberlain and his fellow soldiers. Chamberlain’s is a story of excruciating hardship, abiding endurance, and transcendent courage, and writer Claire Swedberg tells it beautifully, with great style and deep pathos, from Chamberlain’s fraught Depression-era boyhood in Nebraska, through his World War II captivity, to his return to Japan in 2018. Like Adam Makos’s Spearhead and Laura Hillenbrand’s Unbroken, this is the account of one man fighting for and with his fellow soldiers against the forces of war in the twentieth-century.

Book excerpt: Bo Wakefield is a paramedic married to Beth, who is a physical therapist. They are enjoying their young marriage with their three dogs and kitten. They have the world by the tail, planning a family, and nothing can get in their way. That is until a series of killings start occurring in Pulaski County, Arkansas. The vigilante killer is killing all the perpetrators of the defenseless victims in Bo's district. Having already been arrested for suspicion, and with more evidence mounting and pointing to Bo, he is desperate to have the killer caught, so he hires J. P. Dayton, the best attorney/private investigator that money can buy, and together, they are in for the ride of their lives. Could a family massacre from twenty years ago hold the key to the identity of the vigilante killer? Bo seems to think so, but the detectives don't believe it. They are convinced that Bo is trying to transfer their attention off himself. Could the four-year-old lone survivor of the massacre, Jason Wesley Jones, have grown up to avenge his family's deaths and Bo just got caught in the cross fire? If so, where is he and who is he? Time is running out as the killer zeroes in on Bo and his wife.

But she couldn't shake those old insecurities that she'd never be good enough, for Lucas or for anyone else.

Download or read book The Medic written by Leo Litwak and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leo Litwak was a university student when he joined the Army to fight in World War II, "a na've, callow eighteen-year-old son prepared to join other soldier boys being hauled off to war." In 1944 he found himself in Belgium, in the middle of the waning European war, a medic trained to save lives but often powerless to do much more than watch life slip away. It was hard fighting that took Litwak and his rifle company into the heart of Germany at the close of the war. But Litwak learned there was more to war than fighting, more to understand than maps and ammunition. In the final months of the war, he watched the men in his company tenderly serve food at a Passover seder for a dozen brutalized Jewish women newly liberated from slavery. He watched those same men torture and execute defenseless German soldiers. He fell in love at the Moulin Rouge in a scene straight out of a Toulouse-Lautrec painting. The men in his company were dreamers, thieves, friends, killers, revolutionaries, and heroes. They were the men of their time: sometimes brave, sometimes compassionate, sometimes cruel, sometimes loving, usually scared. They were held together by loyalty, only to be scattered by the war's end. The Medic is the gritty, wise, bighearted, and unflinching account of one man's quest to find sense in war and its aftermath.
