Book Description
A career in the U.S. Marine Corps and ordination to the Catholic priesthood are commitments to service, but it is rare one would not only have both these callings and be a widower and father as well. Timothy M. Gahan is such a man. Raised in a large Irish Catholic military family, he served in the Vietnam War as a helicopter machine gunner and was later commissioned in the Corps. Leatherneck to Roman Collar describes the unusual life and times of a 27-year USMC veteran and family man who became a parish priest as told by one of his sisters. It is a compelling story of meeting challenges, devotion, overcoming obstacles, sacrifice, happiness and love of country, family and God.

Luisa Piccarreta
Author: Bernardino Giuseppe Bucci
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781425112981
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
The Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta was born in Corato in the Province of Bari, Italy on April 23, 1865 and died there in the odor of sanctity on March 4, 1947. Luisa from her very birth was given a Mystical life, for example, at the age of 17 she received the Mystical Union that Saint John of the Cross, Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint Catherine of Siena received right before they died. After this Mystical Union Jesus asked Luisa if she would stay in bed and because of her Fiat!, He taught Luisa about the Life of the Divine Will forming It first in her. For the next 64 years until her death Luisa stayed in bed basically not eating, drinking or sleeping. Luisa was nourished by receiving the Most Holy Eucharist during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass daily said in her room. This special blessing was given by Pope Saint Pious X and Pope Leo XIII his predecessor. Luisa also lived on the food of the Divine Will, which Jesus said in the Gospels, a food that you do not know of . During that time through great sufferings and a sublime call to holiness Jesus taught Luisa about the fulfillment of the Our Father, the prayer that Jesus taught His Apostles. "...Your Will be done on earth as in Heaven..." Jesus taught Luisa that now is the time for the Kingdom of God to reign on earth as in Heaven. Jesus dictated 36 Volumes of the doctrine of the Divine Will, which He gave the title "The Kingdom of the Fiat in the Midst of Creatures. Book of Heaven -- The Recall of the Creature into the Order, to Its Place and into the Purpose for Which He was Created by God, to teach Luisa how to Live in the Divine Will, this is different than the devotional life of the Saints which is doing the Will of God. In humble obedience Luisa under the constant direction of the Church faithfully wrote all that Jesus Himself wanted her to put down on paper. This would be not only for herself but for those who would read it, so that they too could Live in the Divine Will as Luisa learned how to Live in the Divine Will by putting into practice these Truths taught by Jesus and Mary. In addition to the 36 Volumes Jesus dictated the book, The Hours of the Passion and Our Lady dictated the book, Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will to Luisa. Jesus told her Confessor, Saint Annibale Maria Di Francia, through Luisa that these 36 Volumes are to be called: The Book of Heaven. Pope John Paul II canonized Saint Annibale and declared him to be the Saint for our time to pray to for Vocations. Yet, Saint Annibale himself stated in Messina on February 14, 1927: Know that I no longer occupy myself with almost anything of the other things of my Institutes, since I dedicated myself completely to the great Work of the Divine Will. I talk about it with people of (docile) spirit; I engage in conversation about this topic with whomever I best can; I promote it as much as I can, even in my Institutes.

The Union Army 1861–65 (3)
Author: Ron Field
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 147285585X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
This book describes and illustrates the uniforms and personal equipment of the troops fielded by the Midwestern and Western states that fought for the Union during the Civil War. During the American Civil War, the United States Army, pitted against the forces of the fledgling Confederacy, fought to defend and preserve the Union during five long years of bitter conflict. As the war continued into 1862 and beyond, both sides mobilized huge numbers of troops, necessitating a massive expansion of military logistics in order to clothe, equip and feed the soldiers as they fought on a variety of fronts, from California to Virginia. This volume, the third in a three-part study, describes and illustrates the uniforms, insignia and personal equipment of the soldiers fielded by the Midwestern and Western states for the Union cause. While the majority of these troops were infantry, substantial numbers of artillery, cavalry and other specialists such as riflemen and engineers were also sent to fight the Confederate armies. Eight plates of original artwork showing officers and enlisted men of the Union Army are complemented by rare photographs depicting soldiers and items of uniform from some of the most comprehensive collections in the United States.

The Italian Army of World War I
Author: David Nicolle
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1782006931
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
The dilemma of the young Italian kingdom and the experience of her army in the Great War were unique among the combatant nations. Late to enter the war against the Central Powers, she faced a massively defended Austro-Hungarian front in the north, including strong mountain features, as well as distractions in the Balkans and a simultaneous rebellion in her Libyan colony. Costly and repeated battles on the Isonzo front culminated in the disaster of Caporetto in October 1917, followed by a remarkable revival and eventual victory in 1918. This concise study describes and illustrates the Italian Army's campaigns, organisation, uniforms, weapons and equipment – including the famous 'death companies' and Arditi assault troops.
