Download or read book Gordy Isms written by Gordon L Ewell and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gordon L Ewell (US Army Retired) served in the war in Iraq. He had one of the most dangerous missions; find the roadside bombs. He completed 59 combat missions, was blown-up on six different occasions, and saved countless lives. He was also severely wounded in the process. Blessed to cheat on so many occasions, he now seeks to greet each day with a positive energy that is contagiously caring, light-hearted and motivational. This collection of his quotes was gathered during five very long and intense years he spent on his Recovery Road, trying to get back and regain as much of himself as he possibly could. A step at a time, Ewell fought to do that in part by telling himself every single day to think of something positive, uplifting and encouraging that he could focus on and share with others, rather than dwelling on the pain and depression that tried to consume most of his recovery. His nick-name is Gordy. Before long his inspirational daily motivational thoughts for the day were being looked forward to by others who he was hospitalized and recovering with. They had started to refer to his morning thought for the day, as Gordy-isms. And so became the birth of Gordy-isms, and something he continues to do today; think of something positive to start his day. Gordy-isms leave you feeling good, inside and out!

Download or read book A Lifetime at War written by Gordon L. Ewell and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master Sergeant Gordon L. Ewell is a combat engineer and expert in the tactics and techniques the enemy used in Iraq to assemble, disguise, and detonate deadly improvised explosive devices (IEDs). He became part of the first special two-solider team whose mission was to find and render safe the IEDs, before they could unleash their deadly force upon other soldiers, convoys, civilians, and local civilian commuters during the War in Iraq. He performed fifty-nine dangerous missions, coauthored a first-of-its-kind manual used for the training of special teams that would have the mission of finding IEDs, was "blown-up" six different times, and saved countless lives. He received the Bronze Star Medal for "demonstrating personal courage and conviction on multiple occasions by continually performing his duties while under enemy attack," and the Purple Heart Medal for "wounds received while engaged in combat" during the war. Though permanently disabled, he continues to fight. A Lifetime at War is more than just an incredible and inspiring personal account of his road to recovery. Once again Ewell is using his expertise and experience--this time to help wounded warriors navigate the hell of recovery. He helps us all to understand that while the War in Iraq may have ended on December 15, 2011, for the thousands of soldiers severely wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan, their war will never end.
