Gestapo Hunter explores the charmed life and exceptional career of Ted Sismore, widely considered one of the RAF's very best wartime navigators and leaders. A quiet, unassuming man who was nicknamed 'Daisy' on account of his youthful complexion, Ted was one of only a handful of aircrew to complete a tour of operations in Blenheims in the summer of 1941. He is best remembered, however, for his long association with the Mosquito. Planning and leading some of the Mossie's most famous raids against the Nazi regime's most-loathed characters. He flew in the daylight attack on Berlin, timed to coincide with an address being given by Hermann Göring, for which he received the first of several awards for gallantry and which was widely publicized. He followed this with an attack on the Zeiss optical works at Jena during which their aircraft was hit over the target, and his pilot wounded. It was an attack at the extreme of the Mosquito's range and marked the aircraft out for further special duties. Identified by Basil Embry, the mercurial AOC of 2 Group, as something of a kindred spirit, Ted joined the Group's HQ staff, planning Operation Jericho, the famous attack on the prison at Amiens on 18 February 1944 and taking part on 31 October later that year in another 'spectacular' to bomb the Gestapo HQ at Aarhus in Denmark. Raids on the SS and Gestapo became something of a specialty, Ted leading further pinpoint bombing attacks on 'Shell House' in Copenhagen (Operation Carthage) and the Gestapo HQ at Odense. After the war, Ted teamed up with Mick Martin, the famous Dambuster, to break the flying record from London to Cape Town, in 1947, a journey of almost 7,000 miles. He later qualified as a pilot, flying Meteors, Javelins and Canberras, retiring as an air commodore. He died in 2012.

Air Power and the Arab World, 1909-1955 Volume 10 continues the story of the men and machines of the first half-century of military aviation in the Arab world. It tells the story of the first two weeks of the first of the Arab-Israeli Wars - also known as the Palestine War - in May 1948. Whilst part of an ongoing series, this volume stands alone as a history of the period covered.By that time, in Egypt, Iraq, Transjordan, newly-independent Syria, Lebanon, and, to a lesser extent, Saudi Arabia, significant efforts had already been made to strengthen these countries' armed forces. Where Egypt, Iraq and Syria were concerned, these efforts included a determination to improve or, in the case of Syria, to establish their air forces. All three air forces were thrown into the First Phase of the Palestine War and, in the view of most subsequent commentators or historians, they had failed to perform as well as their government and populations had expected. However, closer investigation and the removal of layers of propaganda which have obscured the realities of this first Arab-Israeli War show that the Arab air forces performed better than is generally realized. Arguably, they had their limitations and weaknesses, and these had also become apparent as the fighting intensified and losses began to mount. All this was always clearly pointed out in Arabic sources, both official and unofficial, unpublished, or published only with limited circulation.Volume 10 of Air Power and the Arab World focuses on day-to-day events on the ground, in the air and at sea during this hard-fought phase. It does so in remarkable detail because the authors have accessed previously unpublished Arab official military documents supplemented by translations from Arabic books and articles containing official and personal accounts by those involved. Perhaps the most remarkable such source is the Operational Diary of the Royal Egyptian Air Force's Tactical Air Force based at al-Arish in north-eastern Sinai.Air Power and the Arab World, 1909-1955 Volume 10 is illustrated by abundant photographs from previously unused, or very rarely used, private and official sources, and includes specially commissioned color artworks.

"The entry of daggers into the Forum" is an expression that identifies two precise historical moments: when two tribunes of the plebs--brothers Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus and Caius Sempronius Gracchus--were murdered in Rome in 133 and 122 BC amidst bloody riots. These deaths and subsequent events marked the rupture of the constitutional order in the Roman Republic and the beginning of a political crisis. Thus began a political process that would lead, over the span of three generations, to the end of the res publica, a transition of endless violence, ransacking, and destruction, including three bitter and bloody civil wars.Internal politics in Rome in this period was fueled by social conflict, the confrontation between two political alignments--the Optimates and the Populares--each headed by an eminent figure and was characterized by sectarianism and (factional) intolerance. It was characterized by speeches delivered in the Senate, in the streets, and in the courts with solemnity and intensity but equally by the daggers that flashed in the hands of conspirators and assassins; by street riots, with thousands of victims; by real or alleged coups d'état, with ferocious mass repressions; by summary executions; by victims abandoned to the fury of the mob; of widespread civil wars whose battles intertwined with those against enemies abroad; manhunts, horrendous crimes; the system of legalized killings that aimed at the annihilation of political opponents known as proscriptions; corruption; and brutal and mass killings.This book discusses this tumultuous period in Rome between 133 and 78 BC, covering the plots of the Senate of Rome against the Gracchi and their violent ends, the mysterious death of Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus, destroyer of Carthage and of Numantia, the ferocious lynching of Lucius Apuleius Saturninus, the seditious tribune of the plebs, the civil war between Marius and Sulla, including the siege and capitulation of Rome and Marius' reign of terror, ending with the definitive victory and proscriptions of Sulla.

Worm-Time challenges conventional narratives of the Cold War and its end, presenting an alternative cultural history based on evolving South Korean aesthetics about enduring national division. From novels of dissent during the authoritarian era to films and webtoons in the new millennium, We Jung Yi's transmedia analyses unearth people's experiences of "wormification"--traumatic survival, deferred justice, and warped capitalist growth in the wake of the Korean War. Whether embodied as refugees, leftists, or broken families, Yi's wormified protagonists transcend their positions as displaced victims of polarized politics and unequal development. Through metamorphoses into border riders who fly over or crawl through the world's dividing lines, they reclaim postcolonial memories buried in the pursuit of modernization under US hegemony and cultivate a desire for social transformation. Connecting colonial legacies, Cold War ideologies, and neoliberal economics, Worm-Time dares us to rethink the post-WWII consensus on freedom, peace, and prosperity.

"I wrote this book after reading Lt/Col. Davis's excellent book on the Surrey and Sussex Yeomanry of WWII. He mentioned some of the awards in his book and listed the rest at the back of his book, but no Citations. So I took it upon myself to find all the Citations and all the award winners and write a book showing them. I also listed all those who had awards and had died, and the country where they died and the cemetery they are buried in." Dick Buckman

This 1944 period manual covers both Western and Eastern theatres of war. The content details elements of vehicle, gun or heavy equipment recovery, backloading and evacuation; the primary objective of this was to return the damaged piece of equipment back to operational use. Often under enemy fire, 'recovery' was a hazardous operation that included dealing with the deceased crew.

A psychiatric casualty is a military combatant who is unable to continue fighting due to some sort of mental debilitation. The debilitations a casualty can experience are extensive, with many psychiatric casualties developing long-term or permanent post-traumatic stress disorder. Treatment generally consists of simply removing a soldier from combat; however, psychotherapy is sometimes used. This Korean war period handbook covers syndromes, prevention and treatment, and methods used at the time.Psychiatric casualties are recognised as an important and inevitable feature of modern warfare. At the beginning of the 20th century they were scarcely acknowledged (shell shock), and still less treated. Today, as a result of lessons learned in the First and Second World Wars, numbers can be predicted on the basis of battle intensity and effective clinical interventions applied.

This volume explores the topics of military revolutions, strategy, and tactics both separately and as they relate to each other. It makes important contributions to understanding European warfare in the Early, High, and especially the Late Middle Ages, as well the military transition to the Early Modern Period. Readers will find detailed analysis of how technological and non-technological developments interacted to effect major changes in how wars were fought across the period. The evolution and capabilities of the English longbow and of early gunpowder artillery are examined in depth. Changes in the tools of war naturally affected plans to employ those tools to achieve political ends--military strategy--but strategy was never dictated by technology. That point is illustrated by examinations of English efforts to conquer Wales; the Anglo-Burgundian alliance of the late Hundred Years War; and the economic factors shaping medieval conquests in general.The nine studies in the volume have all been published previously, but a new introduction shows how they fit together, particularly explaining how they collectively rebut common critiques of Rogers's controversial thesis that European warfare was reshaped by the Infantry and Artillery Revolutions during the era of the Hundred Years' War. Two of the chapters have been substantially expanded, so that the versions printed here should be the ones consulted and cited in the future by scholars of medieval warfare and military revolutions.

From our country's most important war historian, a gripping account of the turbulent relationship between Canada and the US during the Second World War. The two nations entered the war amidst rivalry and mutual suspicion, but learned to fight together before emerging triumphant and bound by an alliance that has lasted to this day. When the Second World War broke out in 1939, it set in motion a deadly struggle between the Axis powers and the Allies, but also fraught negotiations between and among the Allies. On questions of diplomacy, economic policy, industrial might, military capabilities, and even national sovereignty, thousands of lives and the fate of the free world depended on back-room deals and desperate trade-offs between soldiers, diplomats, and leaders. In North America, Canada and the US strained to forge a new military alliance to guard their coasts and fend off German U-boats and the menace of a Japanese invasion. Wartime economies were entwined to produce a staggering contribution of weapons to keep Britain and other allies in the war. The defense of North America against enemy threats was essential before the US and Canada could send armies, navies, and air forces overseas. In his trademark style, Tim Cook employs eyewitness accounts to vividly lay bare the brutality of combat and the courage of North Americans under fire. Behind the fighting fronts, the charged and often secret communications between national leaders Churchill, Roosevelt, and King reveals how their personalities shaped the outcome of history's most destructive war, the fate of the British Empire, and the North American alliance that lives on to this day. The Good Allies is a masterful account of how Canadians and Americans made the transition from wary rivals to steadfast allies, and how Canada thrived in the shadow of the military and global superpower. In exploring this complex and crucial dimension of the Second World War and its legacy, Cook recounts two nations' story of cooperation, of sacrifice, and of bleeding together to save the world from the fascist threat.

From first time author Tom Stein, comes the meticulously researched true story of a Belgian family forever changed by a band of American WWII soldiers. All proceeds from book sales will be donated to the Remember 39-45 Museum which figures prominently in the story. It was a crisp, clear day in November 1943 as ten-year-old Marcel Schmetz walked home from school along Route de la Clouse, Hitler's new Belgium-German border. He was about to cross a small bridge over the Berwinne Creek. To his right, he saw an unassuming loaf of bread bobbing downstream in the creek. Then, peering further over the flimsy bridge railing, he saw her. A young woman was face-down at water's edge with armed border guards standing over her. Water rippled slowly past her lifeless body, turning pink as it flowed into occupied Belgium. Marcel did not know that poor, young woman. But he did know of her likely desperation to try to smuggle food across the border for her family. For more than three years, Marcel's family and neighbors had been deprived of their basic rights and fundamental needs for survival. No one knew liberation was still 10 months away, but Marcel's family would persevere as they had for the previous three years. At the time, young Marcel couldn't know the powerful, personal impact those liberating heroes from the famed American 1st Infantry Division would have on him, after they secured his town and later bivouacked on the Schmetz family's farm. Nor could he dream of how he and his future wife, Mathilde, would dedicate their lives to keeping those soldiers, their sacrifices and their bonds alive for future generations to cherish. This is not a war story, although there are accounts of war. It is not an historic tome though historic events are described. It is the simple story of how war and history shaped a couple's powerful love for each other, for strangers and for a people an ocean away. It also asks the question: How will their legacy of love continue after Marcel and Mathilde are gone?

There's only one rule in combat that really matters to an Infantryman: kill or be killed. At age fifty, Vietnam-era veteran Bob Shano, enraged by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, signed back up to serve as an Infantryman in the United States Army. Over the eleven years that followed his return to duty, Shano completed three combat tours in support of the Global War on Terror before being mandatorily retired at age sixty-two on June 30, 2013. His first tour took him to Iraq, where he actively took part in the search for weapons of mass destruction. He deployed to Afghanistan for his second tour, where he served as an advisor for the Afghan border police, national police, and national army. For his third and final combat tour, he returned to Iraq, this time as a member of an Army Stryker Brigade Combat Team. A native of New York City, for Shano this war would not be a war of attrition, as it had been labeled by some of the Brass and members of the Press. It would be a war of retribution.

The cycle format treatment of America's military and civil war history, uses War Peace Dates and data on Source level only. The dated events are used as 'Data', describing regular Rises and Falls in War/Civil War and Peace periods. The projections of the dominant cycles of today, reveal Urgent Results, of the real possibility of a Break Up and Civil War in America. While the cycles cause increased vulnerability, the break up of America and its 'take down' internally, has been intentionally caused mostly by Communist Chinese funding. The 2020 Presidential Election and subsequent policies by the regime, which after decades of effort and Chinese funding, is leading to the break up of America and a Red Dawn scenario. With its military spread thin a subsequent invasion by China and Russia and Mexico et al, with or with out a nuclear attack on surviving elements, is now a likely out come and fate for a taken down America. History Cycles study by me, as early as 2012, indicates that the years 2024/25 are the times when these awful events may take place, which may include the Grid being taken down. The Cycles supported by history as data, flow through to our present and near term future. America, the last chance for a free man kind, is in the balance, and may have already been permanently tipped over unless a miracle.

'Excellent' John Terraine, Daily Telegraph The full story of Allied heroism and incompetence in the Dardanelles, from the brink of victory to resounding defeat. Perfect for readers who enjoy the works of Barbara W. Tuchman, Christopher Clark and John Keegan. In 1911 Winston Churchill had astutely stated that, 'It is no longer possible to force the Dardanelles, and nobody would expose a modern fleet to such peril.' Yet, four years later, as First Lord of the Admiralty, he would override the opposition of his First Sea Lord, Jackie Fisher, and support a daring assault on the Gallipoli peninsula. With Imperial Russia appealing to her allies for assistance against the might of the Central Powers, Churchill and those who agreed with him, thought that they could knock the Ottoman Empire out of the war by forcing their way through the Dardanelles to Constantinople. What started out promisingly ended in utter, dismal disaster for the Entente powers. Michael Hickey traces the complex roots of catastrophe to the remoteness of war leaders in London, the chaotic operations of under-equipped and incompetent admirals and generals on the spot, and the extraordinary diversity of the Allied troops. Drawing both on his experience as a soldier and on a wide range of historical archives, including official papers, diaries and letters, many never used before, Hickey makes real for us the luckless fighting men who did their best but were, in the words of one of them, 'beaten in the end by our own leaders'. 'Gripping' Robert McLaughlin, Glasgow Herald 'Lucid, vivid and highly readable' Arthur Hockaday, RUSI Journal Gallipoli: A Study in Failure should be essential reading for all interested in one of the most fascinating but grimmest campaigns in modern history.

In this compelling historical account, a Westphalian staff officer recounts his experiences during the 1812 campaign in Russia. He followed a routine of documenting daily observations and events, which were initially sent to his family in the form of letters. After returning from the war, he found all these letters intact and took the opportunity during peacetime to organize them. Despite their sometimes hasty and pencil-written nature, he transcribed them for readability. His war companions encouraged him to publish these letters, particularly because they offer a unique perspective on the involvement of the Westphalian Army Corps (the 8th in the Grand Army) in the campaign. The author highlights inaccuracies and misunderstandings in existing accounts of the campaign, which often fail to adequately represent crucial facts influencing the outcomes of operations, battles, and skirmishes. The letters remain largely unaltered, with only personal matters omitted, preserving the immediacy and authenticity of a diary. Readers can judge the author's perception of daily experiences, the morale of troops and leaders, and the immense challenges in maintaining combat readiness. The author emphasizes how these factors, more than the enemy or harsh weather, contributed to the destruction of the French-allied army in Russia. The book offers candid insights and occasional misconceptions, which are natural given the circumstances. The author corrects these with annotations, referencing well-known authors on the war, and shares his own views where they differ. Additionally, he provides insights into the internal workings and organization of the Westphalian army, as well as events involving Westphalian troops before and after the 1812 campaign. The author, with his unique perspective, offers a narrative filled with political reasoning, operational plans, and personal views, creating a vivid and authentic portrayal of a war unparalleled in the history of the civilized world. Includes 48 Westphalia Army Uniform Plates of Herbert Knötel.

Questa è la traduzione fedele del manuale prodotto dall'Office of Strategic Services degli Stati Uniti nel 1944, per fornire istruzioni alla popolazione dell'Europa occupata dai nazisti, su come sabotare la macchina bellica tedesca e avvicinare la fine della sconfitta del Reich e la liberazione dell'Europa.

Sie fragten ihren Kompaniechef: "Warum sind wir hier?" Sie verstanden den Vietnamkrieg nicht und wollten auch nicht dabei sein. Er blickt 53 Jahre zurück und erläutert die Hintergründe und Ursachen des Krieges. Wie und warum die USA in turbulenten Zeiten voller Studentenunruhen, politischer Attentate, Antikriegsprotesten unter der Führung von Jane Fonda, Martin Luther King und anderen Persönlichkeiten sowie Bürgerrechtsmärschen, korrupten und inkompetenten vietnamesischen Regierungen, mittlerweile Präsidenten usw., feststeckten Generäle hegten stillschweigend Zweifel am Krieg.Also sagte er leise zu seinen Soldaten: "Lasst uns unsere Arbeit erledigen und nach Hause gehen." Sie machten ihre Arbeit, gingen nach Hause, und niemand kümmerte sich darum. Dieses Buch ist nichts für diejenigen, die Heldentaten im Rambo-Stil erwarten. Stattdessen dienten sein Autor und seine Männer ihrem Land nicht als Kämpfer im aktiven Kampf, sondern als Ingenieure, die sich in aller Stille der Kleinarbeit widmeten, nämlich dem Bau und der Reparatur von Straßen, Brücken und Infrastruktur. Sie erfüllten ihre Mission unter schwierigen Bedingungen wie hoher Arbeitsbelastung, Drogenmissbrauch, Rassismus, Zweifeln am Krieg, Auseinandersetzungen und hitzigen Diskussionen über die Erledigung der Arbeit und Heimweh nach Liebe. Anschließend schließt er mit einem Vorschlag für künftige Kriege ab.
