Download or read book Delta Force written by Steve Stone and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-03 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This explosive true account of Delta's very own Bravo Two Zero during the 1991 Gulf War. Compromised deep inside Iraq with one operator mortally wounded and one severely injured. An eight man Delta team was in a fight for their lives as they were chased across the Iraqi Desert by the Iraqi Army. Being captured was not an option as Delta made use of every bit of high-tech kit and air assets to get their men out alive. Being chased by armor and thousands of Iraqi soldiers who had flooded the area. Enduring the cold and unforgiving terrain along with a hostile local populous. This rarely told true story follows one top secret Special Forces raid to hunt down and destroy Scud missiles threatening to cause the collapse of the Arab alliance if Israel entered the war. Often overlooked Delta Force have been on a constant war footing sine their first ill-fated Operation Eagle Claw mission in 1979. Set up as a counter terrorist unit based on the British SAS by Col Charles Beckwith. Delta Force is known for its excellent planning process, scientific approach to assaults, physical training and amazing marksmanship and are every bit as capable as SEAL Team Six and the SAS. They were involved in the capture of Saddam Hussein and Operation Gothic Serpent in Mogadishu and have fought in virtually every recent war zone since their inception.

Download or read book Space Wars written by Michael J. Coumatos and published by Forge Books. This book was released on 2007-04-17 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael J. Coumatos is a former U.S. Navy test pilot, ship's captain, and commodore; U.S. Space Command director of wargaming; and a government counterterrorism advisor. William Scott is a retired bureau chief of Aviation Week and Space Technology and a nine-year Air force veteran who served as aircrew on nuclear sampling missions. He is a six-time Royal Aeronautical Society "Journalist of the Year" finalist, and won the Society's 1998 Lockheed Martin Award for the "Best Defense Submission." He also received both the 2006 and 2007 Messier-Dowty awards for "Best Airshow Submission." With the help of New York Times bestselling author William J. Birnes, these renowned experts have joined forces to grippingly depict how the first hours of World War III might play out in the year 2010. Coumatos, Scott, and Birnes take the reader inside U.S. Strategic Command, where top military commanders, space-company executives, and U.S. intelligence experts are conducting a DEADSATS II wargame, exploring how the loss of critical satellites could lead to nuclear war. The players don't know that the war they are gaming has already begun, miles above them in the lifeless, silent cold of space. Jam-packed with the actual systems and secret technologies the United States has or will soon field to protect its space assets, Space Wars describes a near-future nuclear nightmare that terrorists will relish but politicians prefer to ignore. In a quieter, more peaceful time, Space Wars would be an exciting work of fiction. But with the United States now at war, Space Wars is all too real. .

Download or read book Tango written by Jo Baim and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Tango: Creation of a Cultural Icon Jo Baim dispels common stereotypes of the tango and tells the real story behind this rich and complex dance. Despite its exoticism, the tango of this time period is a very accessible dance, especially as European and North American dancers adapted it. Modern ballroom dancers can enjoy a "step" back in time with the descriptions included in this book. Almost as interesting as the history of the tango is the cultural response to it: cities banned it, army officers were threatened with demotion if caught dancing it, clergy and politicians wrote diatribes against it. Newspaper headlines warned that people died from dancing the tango and that it would be the downfall of civilization. The vehemence of these anti-tango outbursts confirms one thing: the tango was a cultural force to be reckoned with!

Download or read book Making the Most of Tutor Time written by Helen Peter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most secondary school teachers and some support staff will be expected to take on the role of form tutor or mentor along side their other work. What is surprising is how little time, status or attention is given to training and preparation for this pastoral aspect of education, in comparison to subject teaching. This book helps to redress the balance by providing a look at the structure and organisation of pastoral support as well as being full of practical ideas for tutors to use in tutor time. The chapters include: Establishing Routines; The Self Managing Tutor Group; How to Help and Support Individuals; Engaging Parents and Carers; and, Tutoring Over a Whole Year. There is also a Resource Section and CD-ROM which includes a PowerPoint for staff training, proformas for gathering information for parent's evenings and examples of practical activities such as, Jigsaw, Diamond Nine and Hot Seating, as well as useful books and organisations. One secondary academy head wrote, 'I really like it! It is very fresh, practical and full of wisdom. I like the whole section on parental engagement and all the games suggestions, really clear and so simple to pick up and use. And the calendar of the year with tutorial themes is great! But of most use to me and my school is the opening section on routines, expectations and setting the scene, fantastically useful reminders. Thank you so much, this will be my tutorial bible.'
