Book Synopsis Combat Ready? The Eighth U.S. Army on the Eve of the Korean War by : Thomas E. Hanson
Download or read book Combat Ready? The Eighth U.S. Army on the Eve of the Korean War written by Thomas E. Hanson and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Historians and sliders have not been kind to either [General Douglas] MacArthur or the soldiers whom he placed in harm's way in the summer of 1950 ... This study seeks to redress the imbalance that exists between fact and interpretation. For too long historians and soldiers have roundly criticized Task Force Smith's performance, extrapolated from its fate a set of assumptions about what constitutes readiness, and then used those assumptions to condemn the entire Eighth Army. The reality is much more complex. A proper examination of the historical record reveals wide disparities in the readiness and combat effectiveness of the subordinate units of America's first forward-deployed Cold War field force ... This work will demonstrate how units achieved that readiness by means of case studies of four infantry regiments, one from each of the four infantry divisions that constituted the Eighth Army in 1950. It synthesizes contemporary training doctrine, training records generated by maneuver units, unit histories, reports of inspections by outside agencies, contemporary self-assessments, and the observations of veterans who served in Japan in the fifteen months before the outbreak of the Korean War. It challenges the long-standing reputation of the Eighth Army as flabby, dispirited, and weak"--Introduction.

Book excerpt: Damn, its been a long time coming. But its finally here, Pokey said to no one in particular, as the day arrived for him to be released from the prison that held him hostage against his own will for the last eighteen months, day by day, as he walked out the open gates. He was blinded by the bright sun. Reaching up to cover his eyes, he heard a horn blowing. Looking around for the sound of the horn, he spotted his mothers beat-up Honda. As he watched his mother get out of the car and slowly walk toward him, Pokey had one thing in mind. Man, I gotta make sum Major Doe, he was thinking, as his mother reached out and gave him a hug. Thanks, Mom. Glad I didnt have to ride that stank-ass bus all the way home, he told his mother, who just smiled as she turned around and made her way back to the car, with Pokey on her heels. I dont know what you coming on this side for, his mother said, pushing him over to the drivers side. You driving, she said. I gotta get some beauty sleep, she said, sliding in the car. On the ride home, it was quiet, with Pokey in his own thoughts. As he was listening to his mother snore lightly, he promised, Momma, Imma make shit happen. Being in prison, Pokey learned a lot, but he also learned that if you want something bad enough, you gotta go get it. With that in mind and the words Old School used to tell him all the time. Young blood, you gotta be ruthless in the game of life. Sometimes you will be forced to bite the hands that feed you, so always keep in mind game aint based on sympathy. If a motherfucker wanna get in your way, dont hesitate to roll over them, and leave them where they lay. As he was in deep thought, his mother brought him back to the here and now. So, boy, now that you free, what you gonna do to stay free? his mother asked, turning in her seat to face him. Whatever I gotta do, Pokey said, keeping it real. So you gonna get a job? his mother asked. Never, Mom. You know me. I aint working no nine-to-five for no minimum wage so that working shit is dead, he said. While driving, as he looked out the corner of his eye, he saw his mother shake her head, as she closed her eyes and stopped talking. But he went back to thinking. Damn shit crazy, when ya own momma trying to keep you down, she on some get a job shit, but Imma live and die in the streets. As he pulled up in the projects, where they stayed, he noticed nothing has changed, but changes were about to take place, if he had something to do with it. My thing is, to be paid and get my game sharper than a motherfucking razor blade. As he pulled up and parked, he said, Ma, we here. Waking up, all his mother did was look at him, then exit the car. As Pokey watched his mother enter the house, he said, This the shit Im talking about, a nigga been gone eighteen months, leave with nothing and come home with nothing, so its time I make something. Looking around, shaking his head at all the dirty buildings that held this project together, his last thought was, Now I gotta get some soldiers on my team and make this picture come to life, as he looked around one more time before walking into the house. He mumbled, GABOS, this time around, thats how its gonna be. Niggaz showed no love, they receive none. With that being said, he walked into the house ready to take a nice long shower before he could formulate his next move, not forgetting his next move better be his best move cause GABOS.

Book Synopsis Bodies Built for Game by : Natalie Diaz
Download or read book Bodies Built for Game written by Natalie Diaz and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport has always been central to the movements of both the nation-state and the people who resist that nation-state. Think of the Roman Colosseum, Jesse Owens’s four gold-medal victories in the 1936 Nazi Olympics, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s protest at the 1968 Olympics, and the fallout Colin Kaepernick suffered as a result of his recent protest on the sidelines of an NFL game. Sport is a place where the body and the mind are the most dangerous because they are allowed to be unified as one energy. Bodies Built for Game brings together poems, essays, and stories that challenge our traditional ideas of sport and question the power structures that athletics enforce. What is it that drives us to athletics? What is it that makes us break our own bodies or the bodies of others as we root for these unnatural and performed victories? Featuring contributions from a diverse group of writers, including Hanif Abdurraqib, Fatimah Asghar, Reginald Dwayne Betts, Louise Erdrich, Toni Jensen, Ada Limón, Tommy Orange, Claudia Rankine, Danez Smith, and Maya Washington, this book challenges America by questioning its games.

Download or read book Military Waste written by Joshua O. Reno and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War III has yet to happen, and yet material evidence of this conflict is strewn everywhere: resting at the bottom of the ocean, rusting in deserts, and floating in near-Earth orbit. In Military Waste, Joshua O. Reno offers a unique analysis of the costs of American war preparation through an examination of the lives and stories of American civilians confronted with what is left over and cast aside when a society is permanently ready for war. Using ethnographic and archival research, Reno demonstrates how obsolete military junk in its various incarnations affects people and places far from the battlegrounds that are ordinarily associated with warfare. Using a broad swath of examples—from excess planes, ships, and space debris that fall into civilian hands, to the dispossessed and polluted island territories once occupied by military bases, to the militarized masculinities of mass shooters—Military Waste reveals the unexpected and open-ended relationships that non-combatants on the home front form with a nation permanently ready for war.
