Book excerpt: This substantial and comprehensive book - the definitive authority on its subject - lists the many honours and decorations awarded to the United States Army by Britain's King George VI and later his daughter Queen Elizabeth II to American officers and men serving in the Second World War and the Korean War.Such Honorary Awards to Britain's greatest ally were made on the recommendation of British Commander in the field and cover all grades of awards - with the sole exception of the Victoria Cross, Britain's highest award for gallantry, which is reserved for British or Commonwealth personnel.The author has combed the British National Archives at Kew to find a complete list of awards made by the Army, Royal Navy, and Royal Air Force. The listing of each award comes complete with the original citation.The first awards made to US soldiers were to those attached to the British Army, Corporal Koons and Second Lieutenant Loustalot of the 1st Ranger Battalion, US Army, who were awarded the Military Medal and a Posthumous Mention in Despatches respectively for their actions in the Dieppe raid in August 1942, just eight months after the US entered the war.With the D-day Normandy invasions of June 1944 the number of recommendations for awards shot upwards, and many soldiers were honoured for their role in the liberation of France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and finally Germany itself. Adding the Pacific campaign to the total, the result was over 1,500 awards - all of which are listed in this book.Finally, the list includes Honorary awards made to US War correspondents who reported the Second World war for the folks back home in the USA - including such famous names as 'new York Times' reporter Drew Middleton, and CBS broadcaster Ed Murrow - who both got Honorary OBEs.

Book Synopsis Conversations with Stanley Kunitz by : Kent P. Ljungquist
Download or read book Conversations with Stanley Kunitz written by Kent P. Ljungquist and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2013-11-18 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “He again tops the crowd—he surpasses himself, the old iron brought to the white heat of simplicity.” That's what Robert Lowell said of the poetry of Stanley Kunitz (1905–2006) and his evolving artistry. The interviews and conversations contained in this volume derive from four decades of Kunitz's distinguished career. They touch on aesthetic motifs in his poetry, the roots of his work, his friendships in the sister arts of painting and sculpture, his interactions with Lowell and Theodore Roethke, and his comments on a host of poets: John Keats, Walt Whitman, Randall Jarrell, Wallace Stevens, and Anna Akhmatova. Kunitz emerged from a mid-sized industrial town in central Massachusetts, surviving family tragedy and a sense of personal isolation and loneliness, to become an eloquent spokesman for poetry and for the power of the human imagination. Kunitz has commented, “If we want to know what it felt like to be alive at any given moment in the long odyssey of the race, it is to poetry we must turn.” His own odyssey from “metaphysical loneliness” to a sense of community with fellow writers and artists—by building institutions like Poets House and the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts—is ever present in these interviews.

Book Synopsis The Other End of the Spear by : John J. Mcgrath
Download or read book The Other End of the Spear written by John J. Mcgrath and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at several troop categories based on primary function and analyzes the ratio between these categories to develop a general historical ratio. This ratio is called the Tooth-to-Tail Ratio. McGrath's study finds that this ratio, among types of deployed US forces, has steadily declined since World War II, just as the nature of warfare itself has changed. At the same time, the percentage of deployed forces devoted to logistics functions and to base and life support functions have increased, especially with the advent of the large-scale of use of civilian contractors. This work provides a unique analysis of the size and composition of military forces as found in historical patterns. Extensively illustrated with charts, diagrams, and tables.
