    “Obey the president. Accept his authority.” 
The greatest presidential secret isn’t a UFO sighting or a military conspiracy—it’s the presidential sex island east of Washington, D.C. 
I was just a janitor at the White House, but the president took an interest in me. He got me on my knees. He made me smell his presidential musk. He made me wear the First Lady’s used clothing. 
But I didn’t realize it was all a job interview. 
Now, we’re on his jet heading to the island. He wants to add me to his collection of obedient young men. 
Here in the sky, he’s breaking me down. He’s preparing me for a life of pure, unyielding, eternal devotion. 
I’m ready to serve my country and its glorious leader.

From the onset, the Nazi party were obsessed with the world of the occult. They scoured the globe in search of the weapons that would enable them to conquer the world and build their 1000 Year Reich. 
 
From the Holy Grail to the lance that pierced the side of Christ... From Tibet to the Antarctic... no region or mythological device was ignored. 
 
They turned the planet inside out looking for something ancient, something the Nazi elite called "the most powerful weapon"... a weapon that would instill such awe that it would cause the entire world to surrender overnight. 
 
And then suddenly during the Second World War and perhaps even years before, the Nazi's achieved a massive leap in technology, so great that many have questioned where this Nazi science originated.

    The second edition of Drones: What Everyone Needs to Know® provides a comprehensive and updated look at the rapidly evolving world of drones, otherwise known as unmanned or uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs). Covering the past, present, and future of military and civilian applications, this book explores how drones have transformed—and are transforming—industries and warfare. It delves into the ethical, legal, and safety concerns raised by their widespread use, examining issues from privacy violations to international security.While the US has historically been a dominant force in drone development, this fully updated volume addresses the global proliferation of drones. They quickly became one of the most effective weapons in the Russia-Ukraine War, and states like China, Iran, and Turkey are now supplying drones to states and violent non-state actors around the world. Drones also expands beyond the air to cover ground and maritime drones, and projects the future of drone technology across multiple domains with a focus on autonomous vehicles and lethal autonomous weapons. A must-listen for anyone seeking a well-rounded understanding of this pivotal technology, Drones: What Everyone Needs to Know® provides crucial insights into how UAVs are reshaping modern warfare, domestic security, and civilian life.
