Forty Missions and Home
by Maurice "Vic" Duvic and Lisa Uzzle
Haddan |
It was a gutless, unprovoked attack on the
United States and all it stood for. The hatred shattered the early
morning calm and moved a nation from a time of peace to years of war and
hardship. It prompted young men to offer their service, and many their
lives, to defend their country and everything it stood for. It was a
time of great uncertainty and fear. It was the original “day that will
live in infamy.”

Gimme Shelter -Fear, Healing and Disaster in Iraq
by
Gerard A. Seling, Jr. |
Contrary to what some have concluded, the last book by an American in
Iraq has not been published yet. Gimme Shelter: Fear, Healing and
Disaster in Iraq is not written by a soldier who was there to
kill; it is offered by a healer who was there to save lives. This
journal is a compelling and insightful personal account of the Iraq
War. It is a sardonic confirmation of bureaucratic incompetence and
corporate greed

LOST AT SEA
An Enlisted Woman's Journey
By Rebecca Freeman
as told to Jack F. Leahy
Rebecca Anne Freeman takes us below decks, recounting four years aboard
the world’s largest warship. |
“A new voice in a new world!
Rebecca Freeman's book is a groundbreaker that should be read by all
who would lead today's Sailors. Besides its importance, Lost at Sea
is a great read, full of humor and pathos, from which emerges a
youthful wisdom that edifies while it entertains.”
--Thomas J. Cutler, Editor, The Bluejacket’s
Manual (23rd edition).
She pulls no punches as she describes the terror of life on
the flight deck, the loneliness of six-month patrols off the
coast of Iraq, and the many small pleasures and irritations
which make up a sailor’s life at sea.

To Nam & Back
by Randy Juge
One helicopter pilot’s memories of being in flight during combat.
He was one of many, who went from a civilian, to a soldier, and then
back to civilian life. |
Pilots live by a code of honor. They assist other pilots and
help the troops in the battlefields. They ride into battle,
strike the enemy, and ride out. Like the knights of old, the
helicopter pilots of the Vietnam War were the Templars. Their
steed—the helicopter—wore the armor that was little more than
a shell of aluminum-magnesium that had an affinity for fire
and burned like a sparkler once ignited. The war left an
impression on every soldier who served in Nam.

All For the Flag
by
John Swenning
Gust Junior Swenning lost his life during a naval battle at
Guadalcanal during World War II. This is his story.
|
"A hero is first a person, and an act of
valor is the summation of all that is best in that person. In All For
The Flag, John Swenning aptly tells the story of a hero who was first a
son, a brother, and a man loved by a woman. His values were shaped by
his family, the time and place of his upbringing, and his own nature;
and when Junior Swenning was tested by war all of what was best in him
prevailed."

Warriors' Rest
