  A Week in September - Through a...

  Through a precious cache of WWII letters, a story of war is revealed. But also, most movingly, a story of love, resilience and survival, from award-winning and bestselling writer, Peter Rees and Sue Langford.. 
    
  'Profoundly moving ... I don't mind saying I wept at the end, for all the young men lost to war, their widows and children ... a lovely book.' The Australian 
  Doug Heywood was a teenager when he discovered, in a shoebox hidden in a wardrobe, hundreds of letters, all written by his father, Scott Heywood. As a POW on the infamous Burma Railway, Scott wrote almost daily to his young wife, Margery, on scraps of paper that had to be hidden from guards. These letters tell of an enduring love – and also, intriguingly, of how Scott dealt with the most brutally testing circumstances. 
  Scott's story has echoes of another story happening 7000 kilometres away at the same time. Viktor Frankl, a psychiatrist, was rounded up with his family and sent to Auschwitz in September 1942. Frankl later wrote in his classic book Man's Search for Meaning that the last of the human freedoms was the ability 'to choose one's attitude in any set of circumstances'. Scott Heywood and Viktor Frankl, on opposite sides of the world, found their own ways to survive that were uncannily similar. 
  This is the untold story of one man, one ordinary man, and his war. Woven through it is Margery's story, as she waited anxiously with their two young children in rural Victoria, trapped in an emotional rollercoaster, unaware that he was writing letters to her that could not be posted. This is a powerful and moving story of love, resilience and survival.

  Fighter Aces of World War II -...

  The concept of the "fighter ace" emerged during the early days of aerial warfare, capturing the imagination of the public and military strategists alike. A fighter ace, typically defined as a pilot who has achieved five or more confirmed aerial victories, became a symbol of skill, bravery, and national pride during World War II. These men and women were not only warriors of the sky but also icons of an evolving form of combat that would change the course of modern warfare.  
    
  World War I introduced the world to aerial dogfights, with pilots like Manfred von Richthofen, famously known as the "Red Baron," becoming household names. By the time World War II erupted, the art and science of air combat had evolved dramatically. Advancements in aircraft technology, tactics, and strategy led to the emergence of a new generation of fighter aces who would dominate the skies. From the skies over Europe to the vast expanse of the Pacific, these pilots played a pivotal role in shaping the outcome of the war.  
    
  The rise of the fighter ace was closely tied to the rapid development of aviation during the interwar period. Nations raced to design faster, more maneuverable, and better-armed aircraft, setting the stage for the intense aerial battles of the 1930s and 1940s. Fighter pilots were trained to master these technological marvels, combining instinctive reflexes with rigorous discipline. They became the elite warriors of their respective air forces, often celebrated as heroes at home and feared by their enemies in the skies.

  Diligence - The Spirit of Hard...

  Diligence is the steady commitment to putting in consistent effort, and it forms the foundation of every successful endeavor. It is not merely about working hard but about investing heart and mind into every task, regardless of its scale or significance. This chapter explores the essence of diligence, emphasizing that it goes beyond the pursuit of perfection and is more about the persistent, day-to-day practice of excellence. 
  At its core, diligence is an attitude that encourages individuals to remain engaged and proactive. It involves setting clear intentions, planning, and executing tasks with a mindful focus. The diligent person recognizes that challenges and obstacles are inevitable, yet they view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a barrier to progress. This mindset transforms mundane tasks into building blocks for personal and professional development. 
  Understanding diligence means recognizing its impact on the overall quality of work. It requires the discipline to resist shortcuts and the temptation to settle for mediocrity. A diligent approach is characterized by thoroughness, reliability, and a willingness to take on responsibility. It means being accountable for one’s actions and continuously striving to improve. With diligence, the process of learning and mastery becomes a journey rather than a destination.

  Uncertain Allies - General...

  Uncertain Allies looks at the United States military's experience in the China-Burma-India (CBI) theater during World War II through the eyes of Joseph Stilwell, the commanding general of American forces in those three countries. Historian Eric Setzekorn focuses on two themes: uncertain allies and ambiguous missions. 
   
   
   
  Despite being allies, relationships between the Americans and Chinese, as well as Americans and the British, were marked by a lack of trust in the CBI theater. This was problematic because most combat personnel under Stilwell's command were Chinese. The lack of trust impacted tactical and operational planning. The second reoccurring theme, ambiguous missions, refers to the poorly defined goals for the theater. The CBI's mission was vague, and Stilwell lacked clear objectives. 
   
   
   
  Underlying both themes is the key flaw in Stilwell's conduct: a failure to understand the American political context. Stilwell advocated for a transactional military and political relationship despite indications that President Roosevelt, other leaders, and the American public desired a long-term cooperative relationship. Stilwell's proposals to make military aid and American support on a quid pro quo basis inevitably ran into staunch opposition. The result was a dangerous disconnect between American military operations and national policy.

  Warriors Hate War - Strategy...

  Why, after over 100 Sigma war games showed us that we could not win, did we still go into Vietnam? Why, if one military doctrine irrefutably indicates that it can succeed time after time, is it not adopted in every military action? Why do warriors hate war? Because their bosses don't understand it. What's the mission? How do we win? What is winning? Bush said that winning was when the major combat operations were ceasing. Maybe so, but knowing how to win a war while striving not to be in one makes a real warrior. Warriors Hate War-Strategy, politicization, successes, and failures of the American military by Glenn Sturm explores the military actions since WW11 through lenses that reveal alternate outcomes and pose frameworks that could inform decision-making for the future of war and, more importantly, peace.
