Download or read book Military Attache written by Alfred Vagts and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is both a history of the service attaché, beginning with the Napoleonic era, and a discussion of his changing role, past and present. Professor Vagts shows the military adviser temporarily joined to the diplomatic corps as a person often divided in his loyalties to diplomatic officials and to military leaders. Affected by increasing bureaucratic specialization, he sometimes became a "twilight" figure engaged in political activity and even espionage. Professor Vagts' numerous works on the history of militarism and the military, in both German and English, and his research in the chancelleries of Europe have given him perspective for this book. Originally published in 1967.

Download or read book The Air Attache in the American Embassy written by Thomas Canady, Jr. and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2005-04-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author relates experiences derived from two assignments as an air attache on duty in a United States embassy. The first was as an assistant attache in Indonesia during a period when relations between Indonesia and the United States were severely strained. Anti-Americanism ran rampant at the time and was manifested by frequent hostile demonstrations before the American Embassy in Djakarta. The second assignment as air attache was in Spain in a totally different atmosphere where Americans were welcomed. Thus the author is able to describe attache duty from two entirely different perspectives. Between attache assignments, the author served as a Plans action officer in Air Force Headquarters in the Pentagon and as director of operations of an air transport unit in Vietnam. These periods are also described.

Download or read book Moscow Memoir written by James R. Holbrook and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir portrays the ups and downs in the life and work of an American military attach in the Soviet Union from 1979-1981. The Iranian Hostage Crisis, the failed attempt to rescue those hostages, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the American-led boycott of the Moscow Summer Olympics all occurred during this period. The author describes both the stark living conditions in Moscow and, based partly on his reports from Moscow that the Defense Intelligence Agency declassified, takes the reader on information collection trips to various cities in the Soviet Union. That travel was in itself an adventureonce his wife and he were forced to sleep in a provincial train station. The KGB frequently tampered with his auto and personal possessions. The authors job was to observe and report military activity that could have an impact on Soviet political-military affairs. After his earlier assignment with the U.S. Military Liaison Mission in East Germany, where military observation was relatively easy, the author became frustrated at the meager opportunities to gather useful military information in the USSR. Consequently, he became more aggressive in his collection efforts. He began traveling more or less incognito about Moscow, making civilian acquaintances and, due to his language and cultural skills, was able to blend into Soviet social gatherings. He began to take risks, some of which paid dividends. Overconfidence, however, led to an incident in Rovno, Ukraine. There the KGB set up a swallow entrapment, after which a Soviet intelligence officer, whom the author had known in East Germany, attempted to recruit him as a spy. This memoir immerses the reader in an increasingly forgotten Cold War environment that, unfortunately, may once again be on the horizon of U.S.-Russian relations.
