  The Navy

  "The Navy" by Harold Clark takes you from the streets of Baltimore to the dark thirty chaos of Grenada's invasion, where Marines hit the beaches with guns blazing. The book displays what the real Navy looks like—where sailors live by mottos like 'Keep the screws turning and the lights burning' and learn hard lessons like 'tonnage has its privileges in the shipping channel.' Relive the Gator Navy days aboard LCU 1655 during Operation Northern Wedding, when a near-collision with a tanker in the Norwegian Sea taught Clark's crew to scan everything—high and low. Feel the tension of Beirut's Red Beach operations and the bitter retreat when the American flag came down, and the Syrian flag went up. Clark tells about his distinctive journey—a Navy life—told straight from the gut by a sailor who lived every minute of it, from boot camp to his final voyage aboard the USS Whidbey Island.

  The German Way of War - A Lesson...

  Jaap Jan Brouwer

  The German Army lost two consecutive wars and the conclusion is often drawn that it simply wasn't able to cope with its opponents. This image is constantly reinforced in literature and in the media, where seemingly brainless operating German units led by fanatical officers predominate. Nothing was as far from the truth. The records show that the Germans consistently outfought the far more numerous Allied armies that eventually defeated them: their relative battlefield performance was at least 1.5 and in most cases three times as high as that of its opponents. 
   
   
   
  The central question in this book is why the German Army had a so much higher relative battlefield performance than the opposition. A central element within the Prussian/German Army is Auftragstaktik, a tactical management concept that dates from the middle of the nineteenth century and is still very advanced in terms of management and organization. 
   
   
   
  Using more than fifty examples to illustrate the realities of the battlefield, the author explains why the Prussian/German Army was such an unprecedented powerful fighting force. And why Auftragstaktik—under other guises—is still the basic form of operation for many European armies, with even the US Army introducing certain elements of Auftragstaktik into its organization, more than 150 years after its conception.

  Just two weeks after winning reelection to his ninth term in Congress, Steve King was stunned to learn the “Swamp” was poised to unleash a treacherous media blitzkrieg designed to kill his Congressional political career on the spot. The words “They believe they can force you to resign” still ring in his ears today. He knew Democrats and the media would pile on. Unfortunately, the threat was from within his party, and it was far more dangerous. The Republican establishment, RINOs, elitists, globalists, and NeverTrumpers needed him out of the way. This is the full story.

  A wonderfully fresh and frank guide to why and how to write personal stories that will heal, liberate, inspire—and entertain—writers, readers, and listeners 
   
   
   
  Writing has been medicine for Nancy Slonim Aronie. At nine months old, her son Dan was diagnosed with diabetes. Then, at twenty-two, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. During the years she and her husband took care of Dan, and when he died at age thirty-eight, Aronie could not find the book she needed. So she wrote her memoir. 
   
   
   
  In teaching memoir writing, Aronie has found that everyone has a story to tell and that telling it is important. Sharing "this is who I am, these are the things that shaped me, this is where I am now" allows a kind of magic and healing to happen. Over decades of writing and teaching, Aronie has created a set of prompts, directions, and examples that she shares in Memoir as Medicine. Listeners will learn how to write through where they have been and into deep understanding, profound healing, and even unexpected joy.
