Because of the world crises, Major Wilson's rifle company has been involved in near continual combat situations, causing the Major to grow disillusioned and angry at the way his men have been killed and injured, due to the British Government's foreign policy. One day the Major is sitting in the officer's mess when one of his officers tells him he has heard of a hypothetical plan to steal the Crown Jewels while their battalion is on public duties in London. The more Wilson thinks about it, the more he feels this simple plan might actually work. Ultimately he decides that if the British Government doesn't care about compensating his men for their sacrifices then he will do something about it himself. Along with the officers and Senior NCO's of his rifle company, Wilson hatches a plan to carry out the most audacious robbery in the history of the United Kingdom. But then, of course, every plan has its shortcomings...Born in the Welsh town of Dolgellau and raised in Shrewsbury Shropshire in the UK, Gwyn Roberts joined the army in 1973 and served with the 1st Battalion The Royal Welch Fusiliers for ten years.After being discharged he found work with the British Railways.

Download or read book We Come to Life with Those We Serve written by Richard B. Gunderman and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of how philanthropy can enrich our lives, as shown by examples from both the lives of real-life individuals and fictional characters. What is the most meaningful and rewarding path in life? Many assume we enrich ourselves only by accumulating more wealth, power, and fame, or by finding new and greater forms of pleasure. In reality, we are most enriched not in taking from others but in sharing the best we have to offer through a life of service. The legendary, real-life individuals and the famous literary characters in this inspiring book show us the way: Vincent Van Gogh exemplified service through art, Benjamin Franklin dedicated his life to service of community, and the career of coach John Wooden is apt testimony to the rewards of service through education. Gunderman persuasively argues that, far from draining away our vitality, service at its best actually brings us to life.
Download or read book The Ultimate Devotional for First Responders and Those Who Serve Others written by Dr. Jeffrey C. Fox and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This devotional is designed for those who serve others. Service includes but is not limited to emergency management, emergency medical services, military personnel, firefighters, first responders, law enforcement, dispatchers / 911 operators, transportation workers, social services personnel, emergency volunteers, and the list goes on. These servants can be found at the local, state, and federal levels as well as private citizens, faith-based individuals, and organizations alike. There are many ways and terms used to describe those who serve others. For the purpose of this devotional, we will use the term “responder.” We often hear this term phrased as “first responder.” However, service to others goes beyond the first responder role. Likewise, it is appropriate to use the term “responder” since that is what you are doing. You are responding to the needs of others. You are also responding to God’s call. The devotional is designed to focus on those who serve others.

Download or read book The Veterans Treatment Court Movement written by Anne S. Douds and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veterans Treatment Courts provides a comprehensive, empirical analysis of the burgeoning veterans court movement from genesis through operation, concluding with comments on its societal relevance. Beginning with the unlikely convergence of therapeutic jurisprudence with the oft-misunderstood warrior ethos that undergirds the entire movement, the text examines every component of veterans courts, weighing the cultural, legal, and practical strengths and limitations of these programs. Each chapter assesses key components of the court, including the participants, law enforcement, judges, prosecution, defense counsel, court administration, data management, the veterans justice outreach officer (VJO), probation, mentors, and the community. The book concludes with recommendations on how these courts can further integrate with communities, maximize efficiency, and improve. The book shows how veterans courts seek to serve veterans’ legal, social, and psychological needs, and how they serve more than just offending veterans by allowing law-abiding veterans, many of whom suffered greatly when they transitioned out of military service, to exorcise their own demons and integrate their experiences into a socially recognized system of care. Incorporating program evaluation with sociological considerations, this monograph offers a comprehensive, considered examination of how—and why—these courts operate, and provides a foundation for future development. The volume provides essential background for scholars studying law and the criminal courts, as well as policymakers, judges, academics, students, and practitioners concerned with effective jurisprudence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminary is dangerous. Really dangerous. The hard truth is that many seminarians enter pastoral ministry feeling drained, disillusioned, and dissatisfied. But the problem isn't with the faculty or the material. Rather, the most perilous danger to the soul of the pastor-in-training is the sin residing deep within his own heart. Drawing on their years of pastoral ministry and seminary experience, David Mathis and Jonathan Parnell take a refreshingly honest look at this oft-neglected—yet all too common—experience, offering real-world advice for students eager to survive seminary with their faith intact. In seven short but challenging chapters, the authors remind readers of the foundational role of the gospel in the life of ministry, equipping them with the keys to grow in their faith while making the most of their education.
