Book excerpt: “And then came the elephants! He half-heard, half-saw something moving. Gigantic forms lumbering by on velveteen toes, ears aquiver, trunks aloft, sensitive nostrils twitching and turning like the periscopes on a shoal of jungle submarines.” Sometimes comical, sometimes poignant, always gripping, Jungle Submarines follows the real-life adventures of Botch as he grows up with his eccentric family – Papa the stoic, Mama the passionate, Minu the thug, Anu the stubborn, and Nini the sweet – in a country and a world that is charmingly disorganized.

What was only the technological domain of the two major superpowers is now available to anyone with money and a desire to operate an export business of drugs or nuclear terror. Signal Mountain, TN (PRWEB) April 21, 2010 -- The newest privately released book on the US market called, Drug Subs (www.drugsubs.com) will forever change readers' ideas about the safety net of the United States security. www.drugsubs.com According to DrugSubs.com, 30% of all the cocaine in the US worth $21 billion dollars is smuggled in by fiberglass semi submersible fiberglass submarines manufactured deep in the jungles of Columbia. DrugSubs.com reports, North Korea is also supplying drug cartels in Columbia and rouge nations like Iran with deeper operating submarines for drug smuggling and terrorist's missions. "The first terrorist nuclear weapon detonation on United States soil may actually be delivered by a North Korean built submarine or a Columbian built semi-submersible launched by an offshore commercial ship" Dr. Robert Spalding, author of Drug Subs. DrugSubs.com informs the reader that the newly discovered secret fleet of narco submarines were for years nicknamed "Big Foot" by the US NAVY because no one in the military had ever seen one until1997 when one was captured. The book, Drug Subs, written by Dr Robert Spalding is the first factual book in print that describes the history, the current manufacturing process and the future of the clandestine Narco Fleet that now sails world wide with near impunity. This 37,000 word book is pictorially documented with unique photos of this new underwater threat plaguing not only the United States but Europe, Africa and other countries as well. Drug Subs outlines how the next major terrorist attack may very well be by our less protected coastlines of the United States rather than by air attack. You can only get Dr Spalding's books through his online store.

Download or read book Save Our Souls Rescues Made by U S Submarines During World War II written by Douglas E. Campbell and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-04-02 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At last count, nearly 2,400 people can claim that their lives were saved by a U.S. submarine during World War II. Of that number, 523 Allied aviators could claim that distinction after crashing their aircraft into the sea and being saved by a submarine operating in the "Lifeguard League." The remaining number were a collection of other military and civilian personnel, each with a story to tell and now able to tell their grand-children. Some of those rescued went on to retire as senior military officers including U.S. Navy Admirals, some back to missionary work, some to manage large companies in later years, some to philanthropic endeavors to pay everyone back for saving their lives. Appendix A is an intensely-researched index of nearly 2,200 names of those saved.
Download or read book Eight Survived written by Douglas A. Campbell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the night of August 13, 1944, the U.S. submarine Flier struck a mine in the Sulu Sea in the southern Philippines as it steamed along the surface. All but fifteen of the more than eighty-strong crew went down with the vessel. Of those left floating in the dark, eight survived by swimming for seventeen hours before washing ashore on an uninhabited island. The story of the Flier and its eight survivors is wholly unique in the annals of U.S. military history. Eight Survived tells the gripping story of the doomed submarine and its crew from its first patrol, during which it sank several enemy ships, to the explosion in the Sulu Sea. Drawing on interviews with the survivors and on a visit to the jungle where they washed ashore—where a cast of fascinating characters helped the U.S. sailors evade the Japanese—Douglas Campbell fully captures the combination of extraordinary courage and luck that marked one of the most heroic episodes of World War II.
