Download or read book Unusual Footnotes to the Korean War written by Paul Edwards and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 'forgotten war' in modern history, the Korean War is rarely given much recognition or studied in detailed. In fact, it was one of the bloodiest conflicts of the 20th century, a deadly clash of world-views as the UN allied itself with South Korea against the massed ranks of North Korean armies backed by Communist China. In this new book, Paul Edwards presents a fresh look at the Korean War, focusing on a number of unusual events that happened during the conflict. Beginning with a look at the war itself, Edwards goes onto tell the stories of the Salvation Army band that disappeared; UFO sightings; the Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, Maggie Higgins, and her battle to report in Korea as an equal with her male counterparts; and an operation to rescue orphan children. It also provides a fascinating look at the propaganda materials dropped over Korea by both sides. This miscellany of the war allows readers to dip in and out of this e-book only title, a perfect e-book for the daily commute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bride Wears Army Boots!Spiritual Weapons and Tools for Healing and Development offers itself as a get ready manual for the Lords soon return. It is a comprehensive field guide to both the broken and to their helpers who recognize themselves called of the Lord to serve and make better a broken humanity. It gives insights as to how a person can become internally wounded, even broken to pieces, and filled with core emotional pain, and it lays out the biblical prescriptions for transformation of spirit, soul, and body. Gods blueprint for spiritual development is an exciting revelation that unfolds the mystery as to how one can grow spiritually to become part with the Bride of Christ (also, Sons of God). The Bride Wears Army Boots! avoids the pitfalls of abstraction by incorporating the authors accounts of some real-life experiences that she and her husband, Doug, underwent. This approach clearly witnesses to the testing of the guides model and the ways of applying ministries that bring about change. The examples are candid, down-to-earth, and spoken in understandable language. They will enrich with understanding and wisdom and equip the hearer for service. Whether you are new to responding to Gods call to serve broken humanity or you are a veteran of the Gospel who is seeking to reapply yourself with renewed vigor, The Bride Wears Army Boots! stands ready to inspire you to trust that God is able to work through cleansed, faith-filled, Spirit-anointed believers to perform His good will in cleansing the Bride of Christ from all Her spots and wrinkles. God indeed wants to use you!

Starbird decided to serve her country as a member of the Womans Army Corps during World War II. After multiple attempts to make weight to join the Army, due to the lack of different weight standards for female recruits, Starbird learns to do things the Army way as a Public Relations Man, making her way from her enlistment in Burlington, Vermont to an overseas assignment as one of the New Guinea Pigs in Hollandia, New Guinea. From learning the Queen Street shuffle - required to allow a chivalrous male General to still enter an elevator before a female Private - to the Armys seeming obsession with the reproductive health of their WACs, join Starbird as she humorously recounts her enlisted experience and the Armys growing pains as it learned to adapt to women in its ranks.

Download or read book Space Tourism written by Michel van Pelt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-11-30 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scientific papers and popular articles have been written on the topic of space tourism, describing everything from expected market sizes to the rules of 3-dimensional microgravity football. But what would it actually feel like to be a tourist in space, to be hurled into orbit on top of a controlled explosion, to float around in a spacecraft, and to be able to look down on your hometown from above the atmosphere? Space tourism is not science fiction anymore, Michel van Pelt tells us, but merely a logical step in the evolution of space flight. Space is about to be opened up to more and more people, and the drive behind this is one of the most powerful economic forces: tourism. Van Pelt describes what recreational space travel might look like, and explains the required space technology, the medical issues, astronaut training, and the possibilities of holidays to destinations far, far away. This is a book for everyone who has ever dreamed of traveling to space: a dream which, according to van Pelt, may not be so far from becoming a reality. Consider it the armchair traveler's guide to the coming boom in space tourism.
