Download or read book Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo written by Ted W. Lawson and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Publisher: Ted W. Lawson's classic Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo appears in an enhanced reprint edition for the sixtieth anniversary of the legendary Doolittle Raid on Japan. "One of the worst feelings about that time," Ted W. Lawson writes, "was that there was no tangible enemy. It was like being slugged with a single punch in a dark room, and having no way of knowing where to slug back." He added, "And, too, there was a helpless, filled-up, want-to-do-something feeling that [the Japanese] weren't coming -- that we'd have to go all the way over there to punch back and get even." Which is what "the Tokyo Raiders" did. Lawson gives a vivid eyewitness account of the unorthodox assignment that eighty-five intrepid volunteer airmen under the command of celebrated flier James H. Doolittle executed in April 1942. The plan called for sixteen B-25 twin-engine medium bombers of the Army Air Forces to take off from the aircraft carrier Hornet, bomb industrial targets in Japan, and land at airfields in China. While the raid came off flawlessly, completely surprising the enemy, bad weather, darkness, and a shortage of fuel caused by an early departure took a heavy toll on the raiders. For many, the escape from China proved a greater ordeal. This anniversary edition features a foreword by noted aviation writer Peter B. Mersky and an introduction by Mrs. Ellen R. Lawson, Ted Lawson's widow, as well as twice as many photographs as the original book, several published here for the first time.

Download or read book Thirty Seconds to Impact written by Maria Burkill and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Peter took charge of the flight deck of the 777 and took off from Beijing airport, there was nothing to suggest that this trip would be anything other than a routine flight of the sort he had made so many times before. It was not until moments before landing that anything went wrong. Coming in to Heathrow Airport, the plane suffered inexplicable loss of power to both engines, and it was suddenly likely that the plane would plough into a built-up area outside the airport, with the loss of all lives on board. Peter tells us in graphic detail his thoughts and actions when he managed to help save the plane at the last moment thanks to a flash of inspiration that led him to change the position of the wing flaps, which appeared to gain the vehicle enough precious time to make it over the perimeter fence and land on the grass, short of the runway. For both Maria and Peter, their lives following the crash have resulted in experiences that they never would have expected to have happened. There isn't a handbook with rules to follow after a crash so the subsequent aftermath was laced with events that could have been handled better from all sides, which lead to Maria and Peter having to find strength inside them that they had never needed before. A little more than a year later, they have used these strengths to begin a new chapter in their lives; starting with leaving British Airways and celebrating a second chance to enjoy life. But there are still nights when they find themselves awake, crying about what could have happened on that fateful day.

Download or read book 30 Seconds written by Sam and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marty English, advertising executive, seems to be leading the perfect life-no one knows that he is really the estranged son of Chicago's Mafia Don. When he pulls in a multi-million dollar account with Isaac Arrow Pharmaceuticals to promote its new herbal line, it looks like he's a shoe-in to replace the aging president of his agency. The only problem is that the ad must be completed for airing during the Superbowl, less than three weeks away-with practically no time to head to Belize and shoot a commercial that will highlight Isaac Arrow's ecological commitment. Unbeknownst to Marty, the heads of Isaac Arrow have long been in cahoots with the Mob, the CIA, and the heads of Planetlife, a bogus eco-resort that is really a front for the manufacture of a highly potent drug. When Tony Inglesia, Marty's father, refuses to go in on the distribution of this new drug, the others in the crime ring plan to "eliminate this roadblock" as soon as he relinquishes his CD-Rom disk which contains one third of the code necessary to access a Swiss bank account containing millions. But their plan is thwarted; Tony's right hand man murders his boss to get in on the action, and now all that matters to them is that they recover the disk (which is now, unmarked, with its significance unexplained, in Marty's possession). For the first time, Marty must depend on the help of a county cop, and his beautiful long-time companion Reiki to help him crack the mysterious code the disc contains and bring down the crime ring...and stay alive in the process.

Download or read book 30 Seconds In His Presence written by Terry MacAlmon and published by New Glory International. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will give you an insight of God’s presence from Terry’s own perspective. God has made Himself available to us in a very real way. Terry takes us to His throne with the same anointing you feel on his music. A must read for worshipers! 30 Seconds in His Presence is a book totally dedicated to the manifest presence of God as experienced by the author himself. Terry MacAlmon shares many stories of divine encounters with the Holy Spirit. He also offers instruction on how to reach Jesus through worship and a spirit-led life. “I can’t live without His presence. I’m not talking about listening to or singing songs that include lyrics about His presence. I’m not talking about an emotional frenzy that is the result of a beat-driven, full of the flesh “worship service”. I’m not talking about the latest supposed “cutting edge” church experience where talented musicians get together on any given Tuesday night to write a new contemporary Christian “hit” for the following Sunday that somehow goes on to sweep the nation. I’m not even talking about the most beautiful of melodies and lyrics ever written, whatever you may deem that to be in your own musical taste and experience. I’m talking about His presence…the tangible, unmistakable, un-counterfeit-able, healing, soul-changing, manifest presence of God. All of the above things mentioned may contain it but there are no guarantee of it in and of themselves. Think of it...the glory of heaven touching earth…the attendance of the Creator of the universe…THIS IS ESSENCE OF LIFE TO ME.”
