Book Fort Meade and the Black Hills

Download or read book Fort Meade and the Black Hills written by Robert Lee and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1991-05-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fort Meade was the home of the famous Seventh Cavalry after its ignominious defeat in the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Troops from Fort Meade played a pivotal role in the events that led to the tragedy at Wounded Knee in 1890. It was the scene of imprisonment of Ute Indians who made the mistake of interpreting their new citizenship status as freedom from government control. The fort survived the mechanization of the horse cavalry, aided the record-breaking Stratosphere Balloon flight of 1935, and became a training site for the nation’s first airborne troops. Fort Meade existed for sixty-six years, from 1878 to 1944. Robert Lee examines the strategic importance of its location on the northern edge of the Black Hills and the role it played in the settlement of the region, as well as the role played by the citizens of Sturgis in keeping it alive. One of the chief delights of Fort Meade and the Black Hills is a gallery of characters including the unfortunate Major Marcus Reno, the beautiful and fatal Ella Sturgis, and the cigar-smoking Poker Alice Tubbs. They, and events scaled to their larger-than-life size, are part of this long overdue story of Fort Meade.

Breaking into the deceased Senator’s house Jazz finds a highly sophisticated underground control center containing banks of computers and other electronic devices. Attempting to hack into the data banks he is only partially successful, but unearths enough evidence to suggest the senator, under orders from a sinister force in Britain, manipulating a rogue faction within the CIA and Al Qaeda, orchestrated the 9/11 attacks back in 2001. Unable to further penetrate the various data banks; Jazz however learns enough to convince him the senator had been spearheading a sophisticated campaign to launch America into a War of Resources, with the major oil fields of the world as the ultimate prize. Taking what he obtained to his chief, Admiral Granite Blaise, the admiral decides to inform the President. When the Admiral is killed on his way to the White House and Jazz narrowly escapes an attempt on his own life, Jazz realizes he has opened a can of worms that could bring down the government. Going underground he solicits the help of his old friend, the celebrated Mafia Boss, Fingers Cabrioni, who informs him he has been placed on America’s “Most Wanted” list. Undeterred, Jazz digs deeper. Confronting the Boston banker who payrolled the 9/11 attacks he falls in love with the man’s beautiful wife, Abby. Together they flee to South Africa where Ab-by’s folks own a secluded holiday home. In the interim the British Force has contracted the services of the world’s deadliest assassin, known simply as “The Woman”, to find and eliminate Jazz. Can Jazz and Abby, at the mercy of a faceless, totally ruthless, seemingly invincible enemy, survive?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A LUSTY MEMORIAL TO OUR FOREBEARS SEARCH FOR FREEDOM. This book is a work of fiction. The people populating these pages are not real people living or dead. They are mirror images of the people who made the incredible trek from European intolerance to their dream of a better life in 'AMERICA'. During the half century between 1880 and 1924 more than twelve million valiant beings made their precarious way to these shores. Each of them might have provided a story-- good, bad, inspiring or humbling. In fact, a bibliography of their stories-- fiction, memoir, biography, and history would fill a large library. As is normal that generation of determined beings is now gone from this scene, and their children, the generation later dubbed "The Greatest," also dwindling away. This then, is another story in that pantheon, a memorial tale out of those lusty years about one fictional family chasing one of those twelve million dreams.

Book Reading the Enemy s Mind

Download or read book Reading the Enemy s Mind written by Paul H. Smith and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2005-12-27 with total page 779 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you thought The Manchurian Candidate was fiction or John Farris's The Fury, which featured a CIA mind-control program run amok, was the stuff of an overheated imagination, you were sorely mistaken. From behind the cloak of U.S. military secrecy comes the story of Star Gate, the project that for nearly a quarter of a century trained soldiers and civilian spies in extra-sensory perception (ESP). Their objective: To search out the secrets of America's cold war enemies using a skill called "remote viewing." Paul H. Smith, a U.S. Army Major, was one of these viewers. Assigned to the remote viewing unit in 1983 at a pivotal time in its history, Smith served for the rest of the decade, witnessing and taking part in many of the seminal national-security crises of the twentieth century. With the Star Gate secrets declassified and the program mothballed by the Central Intelligence Agency, the story can now be told of the ordinary soldiers drafted onto the battlefield of human consciousness. Using hundreds of interviews with the key players in the Star Gate program, and gathering thousands of pages of documents, Smith opens the records on this remarkable chapter in American military, scientific, and cultural history. He reveals many secrets about how remote viewing works and how it was used against enemy targets. Among these stories are the search for hostages in Lebanon; spying on Soviet directed energy weapons; investigating the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland; tracking foreign testing of weapons of mass destruction; combating narco-trafficking off America's coasts; aiding in the Iranian hostage situation; finding KGB moles in the CIA; pursuing Middle East terrorists; and more. Between the lines in the official records are revelations about unrelenting attempts from within and without to destroy the remote viewing program, and the efforts that kept Star Gate going for more than two decades in spite of its enemies. This is a story for the believer and the skeptic---a rare look at the innards of a top secret program and an eye-opening treatise on the power of the human mind to transcend the limitations of space and time.
