http://www.OperationDesertRose.com Operation Desert Rose is a beautiful story. I cant even tell you how many times I literally laughed out loud enjoying their triumphs and Im a little embarrassed to admit....I actually cried several times. This truly touched me. So many little things in the story brought back memories, and its a tale so many can relate to whether they were in the military or not. I think it is something that can appeal to the masses and its very uplifting at the same time. Its inspirational, spiritual, romantic, and sexy without being gaudy, lude, cheesy, or preachy. Buy this book - its a definite yes! ~ Shelby Austin, Former SSG US Army

Desert Warfare: German Experiences In World War II [Illustrated Edition]
Author: Major General Alfred Toppe
Publisher: Pickle Partners Publishing
ISBN: 1782893776
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Includes 112 photos/illustrations and 21 maps. The German Afrika Korps blazed a trail across the deserts of North Africa under their dashing leader Erwin Rommel, the Desert Fox, although finally defeated by far superior Allied Forces they set the gold standard for desert operations. This book is of great historical value and even in the present day it is still considered of great value by the American military who still seek for improvements in their ways of desert doctrine... “Analysts continue to assess the data from Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm as a means of improving the military’s ability to function efficiently in desert terrain...The information gleaned from this effort will enhance the already considerable body of knowledge on the subject derived from the historical record...When contributions in the latter category are located or rediscovered, they should be given the dissemination they merit... “Such is the purpose of publishing Desert Warfare: German Experiences in World War II...Organized by Major General Alfred Toppe and written with the assistance of nine German commanders who served in North Africa, the manuscript...represents a collaborative attempt to determine “as many factors as possible which exerted a determining influence on desert warfare,” Issues addressed include planning, intelligence, logistics, and operations. Described and analyzed are the German order of battle, the major military engagements in North Africa, and the particular problems of terrain and climate in desert operations. Not unlike many of the U.S. units engaged in the war with Iraq, the Germans in North Africa learned about combat operations in the desert only after they arrived on the scene and confronted the desert on its own terms. For this reason alone, as well as for the insights it offers, Desert Warfare requires the serious consideration of those responsible for preparing the U.S. military for any future conflict in desert terrain.”

My Journey as a Combat Medic
Author: Patrick Thibeault
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1780965958
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Patrick Thibeault has served in the US Army in various capacities since the 1990s, originally training as a Airborne soldier before specialising as a combat medic. My Journey as a Combat Medic covers his original training and deployment before providing a look at the roles he's since played in the US Army's forces, including his recent deployment to Afghanistan. It is a no-holds bar look at the modern medic in the US Army, allowing us a glimpse at the training as a soldier and as a specialist, as well as deployment and front line duties and the impact of service on civilian life, including an honest look at PTSD, from the author's own personal experience. Rather than a technical manual, My Journey as a Combat Medic is a detailed first hand account, concluding with a letter to new medics, providing a career's worth of advice and knowledge as they begin their journeys.
