Book excerpt: The true story of an elite group of men who wrote a page in Naval history. They patrolled the waterways in thirty-one foot river patrol boats powered by Detroit diesel engines with water jet-propulsion. Armed with machineguns and grenade launchers, as well as sheer guts and determination, these sailors faced danger around every bend in the river. Working together, they became one of the finest weapons in Admiral Zumwalt's arsenal for turning back the tide of communist infiltration into Saigon, taking control of the inland waterways. These are true accounts of their bravery, which they proved time and again by spearheading operations into enemy controlled territory. United together in brotherhood, they accomplished all their missions and won their part of the Vietnam War.
Download or read book Five Hours of Butterflies written by Jack R. Peterson and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of 21, Jack R. Peterson left home and enlisted with the Navy at the beginnings of the War in Viet Nam. Young and green around the ears, Jack met up with other boys who were ready to become men. None of them had a clue. All of them had eyes clouded with adventure and travel, being independent and in charge of themselves. But the truth was learned soon upon entering boot camp. Their dreams faded due to exhaustion. Their independence was marshalled at Boot Camp. Their maturity tripped up with the stupidity of youth. Life grabbed them by the collar and hauled them into war. This book is a personal memoir of Jack R. Peterson from his enlistment trials, through boot camp, and onto his assignments in the Navy. Finding himself on a flight line in Atsugi, Japan, supporting troops in Da Nang, Vietnam and flying reconnaissance missions over China gave him a broad understanding of the fight and insight into pieces of military history that is not often written about. His honesty, ability to intimately, and his uncanny wit, create a quick read that cannot be put down.

Download or read book Butterflies of the Cayman Islands written by Richard Askew and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will enable the identification of each of the 57 species of butterfly that has been recorded from the Cayman Islands. There is a description of every butterfly, stressing its most important characteristics, with photographs of living and mounted specimens. The distribution, history and biology of each species are reviewed and the plants which provide adult butterflies with nectar or feed their caterpillars are tabulated. A general introduction includes a discussion of the affinities and size of the Caymanian butterfly fauna. The three islands share most of their butterfly species but each island has uniquely characteristic elements and five subspecies live only in the Cayman Islands. Knowledge is fundamental to conservation; it is hoped that both the casual butterfly watcher and those more committed to the study of butterflies will discover much of interest in this book and thereby make a contribution to the continuing survival of these beautiful insects.
Download or read book The Sound of Butterflies written by Rachael King and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international bestseller this novel follows an unforgettable journey from the demure gentility of turn-of-the-twentieth-century England into the heart of darkness. In 1904, the young lepidopterist Thomas Edgar arrives home from a collecting expedition in the Amazon. His young wife Sophie is unprepared for his emaciated state and, even worse, his inability - or unwillingness - to speak. Sophie's genteel and demure life in Edwardian England contrasts starkly with the decadence of Brazil's rubber boom, as we are taken back to Thomas's arrival in the Amazon and his search for a mythical butterfly. Up the river, via the opulent city of Manaus - where the inhabitants feed their horses champagne and aspire to all things European - Thomas's extraordinary, and increasingly obsessed, journey carries him through the exotic and the erotic to some terrible truths. Back home, unable to break through Thomas's silence, Sophie is forced to take increasingly drastic measures to discover what has happened. But as she scavenges what she can from Thomas's diaries and boxes of exquisite butterflies, she learns as much about herself as about her husband.
