Our Red Army Ally
Author: U.S. War Department
Publisher: Loose Cannon
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
This short World War 2 era pamphlet was created by the U.S. War Dept. in anticipation of the end of the war in Europe. U.S. G.I.'s would no doubt encounter Soviet troops as the vise of two great armies squeezed German lines smaller and smaller. Its goal was to familiarize American soldiers about the Soviet army and troops so that they would know something about their look, armaments and organization. It even contains some useful Russian language phrases that might be used by sentries... "STOY ! Ktaw ee-DYAAWT!" (Halt! Who goes there!). Reply: "A-mee-ree-KAHN-skee bo-YETS!" (American soldier!) There is also extensive details about why the Russians are fighting, their command structure, supply methods and some more Russian phrases for Red Army units (squad, platoon, battalion, etc) that could be useful for troops meeting on the battlefield. 82 pages in length, it features amazingly accurate color illustrations of WW2 Soviet tanks, uniforms, rank insignia and even Soviet medals and decorations. An insightful document that outlines our government's depiction of our 'allies in the East', which would change rapidly as the Iron Curtain descended over most of Eastern Europe in the years to follow.

The Changing of the Guard
Author: Simon Akam

ISBN: 9781922310279
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
A revelatory, explosive new analysis of the British military today. Over the first two decades of the twenty-first century, Britain has changed enormously. During this time, the British Army fought two campaigns, in Iraq and Afghanistan, at considerable financial and human cost. Yet neither war achieved its objectives. This book questions why, and provides challenging but necessary answers. Composed of assiduous documentary research, field reportage, and hundreds of interviews with many soldiers and officers who served, as well as the politicians who directed them, the allies who accompanied them, and the family members who loved and -- on occasion -- lost them, it is a strikingly rich, nuanced portrait of one of our pivotal national institutions in a time of great stress. Award-winning journalist Simon Akam, who spent a year in the army when he was 18, returned a decade later to see how the institution had changed. His book examines the relevance of the armed forces today -- their social, economic, political, and cultural role. This is as much a book about Britain, and about the politics of failure, as it is about the military.

Winner of the 2022 Connecticut Author Project for Young Adult Fiction For this teen reaper, collecting souls is effortless, but when she’s forced to play human, it becomes dangerous. Maggie is the best Collector in the After, and she knows it. But she’s more interested in moving up to a coveted position on the elite Guard—the protectors of humanity.

It should be a relatively simple fix: find the displaced soul, return to her normal afterlife. But Maggie only has a week before the body inherits an ancestral line of powers that will lock Maggie into the body...forever. Memories from a forgotten past assail her as she frantically searches for the soul, making her doubt her abilities. It’s not long before she uncovers a shocking secret, linking her to a terrifying enemy who wants Maggie to recall her corrupt past. Maggie always thought she was on the good side, humanity’s side. But what if she’s the bad guy? This is an updated and edited version of "Soul Taken", originally published by Katlyn Duncan in 2013.
