Download or read book No Surrender written by Hiroo Onoda and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1974, Second Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda of the Japanese army made world headlines when he emerged from the Philippine jungle after a thirty-year ordeal. Hunted in turn by American troops, the Philippine police, hostile islanders, and successive Japanese search parties, Onoda had skillfully outmaneuvered all his pursuers, convinced that World War II was still being fought and that one day his fellow soldiers would return victorious. This account of those years is an epic tale of the will to survive that offers a rare glimpse of man's invincible spirit, resourcefulness, and ingenuity. A hero to his people, Onoda wrote down his experiences soon after his return to civilization. This book was translated into English the following year and has enjoyed an approving audience ever since.

Download or read book The Parent s Guide to the U S Navy written by Thomas J Cutler and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military ways can be enigmatic, resulting in an alien world where acronyms often replace words and where “1330” is a time of day. Add to that, the Navy is not only military, it is nautical, which adds centuries of sea-going terminology and practices to the confusion. While the young men and women who sign on to become sailors in the United States Navy receive extensive indoctrination and training, their parents do not. As their sons and daughters are becoming uniformed, the parents remain uninformed. This book is both a translation manual and a cultural guide to their son’s or daughter’s chosen new world. Alongside chapters covering uniforms, ranks, ships, and aircraft, are explanations and guidance as to what to expect when their child first joins the Navy, the many benefits their sailor will enjoy, and what families should bring and do when visiting their sailors in their new and somewhat alien world. Designed to be an easy read as well as a useful reference work, The Parent’s Guide to the U.S. Navy is essential reading for those parents whose children have chosen to “go down to the sea in ships.

Download or read book The Bluejacket s Manual 26th Edition written by Lcdr Thomas J. Cutler USN (Ret) and published by . This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 26th edition of The Bluejacket's Manual continues the tradition of previous editions of this iconic work by serving as both an introduction to neophyte U.S. Navy Sailors and as a career-long reference work for all who wear the Blue and Gold. Readers of previous editions will note two significant changes in this latest rendition. The first recognizes the U.S. Navy's current emphasis on warfighting. While routine and administrative guidance--such things as uniforms, honors, and ceremonies, pay and benefits, standards of conduct, etc.--remain, this latest edition places greater emphasis on those aspects that Sailors are likely to encounter and must prepare for in the event of combat. The first chapter is titled and focused on warfighting, reflecting the emphasis on "Warrior Toughness" in the training curriculum at Recruit Training Command (AKA "boot camp") at Great Lakes, Illinois. Readers will find that this training emphasizes the psychological as well as practical aspects of preparation, providing a kind of "philosophy" that is tailored to Bluejackets who may well find themselves facing the challenges inherent to combat operations. Other chapters in the book--such as Weapons and Damage Control--complement this emphasis. The second major change to the book is its organization of information. The result is a more user-friendly book As always, the major purpose of revision is to bring the included information relevant and up to date. Readers will find coverage of those aspects of the Bluejacket's world that are evolving. Such things as cyberwar and drones are now included with the emphasis on warfighting. The Bluejacket's Manual, 26th Edition is a comprehensive yet manageable reference that will continue to serve the needs of the Navy and those who serve.

Download or read book Radioman written by Carol Edgemon Hipperson and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2008-10-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radioman is the biography of Ray Daves, a noncommissioned officer in the U.S. Navy and an eyewitness to World War II. It is based on the author's handwritten notes from a series of interviews that began on the eighty-second birthday of the combat veteran and gives a first-person account of the world's first battles between aircraft carriers. Ray Daves grew up on a small farm near Little Rock, Arkansas. Impatient with school and the prospect of becoming a farmer like his father, he joined the CCC and went from there to the navy, where he learned to use the radio to send messages, and soon found himself in the momentary peacefulness of Pearl Harbor. Most of America's World War II veterans were not in uniform when the war began. Daves is one of the few who was. He could also tell what was happening on the bridge of the famous carrier Yorktown before it went down and of the secretive relationship between the Russian and American forces in Alaska at the time. Carol Edgemon Hipperson's discovery of this one man's inspiring story is shared with great skill and energy. A must-read for those looking for a personal, intimate account of the events of this tumultuous time in American history.

Download or read book NavCivGuide written by Thomas J. Cutler and published by U.S. Naval Institute Blue & Go. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The success of the U.S. Navy in its more than two centuries of existence is due not only to the essential contributions of Sailors on active duty and in the Reserve, but also to the civilians who have worked as part of the Navy since its earliest days. But active and Reserve Sailors are sent to boot camp or officer candidate school to prepare them for their unique occupation. And while the Navy has long provided The Bluejackets Manual to incoming Sailors to serve as an introduction and as a continuing reference guide so that they will feel more comfortable in a new and otherwise alien world, civilians working for the Navy have never been issued a similar guide to help them navigate a world where floors are decks, where 1337 is a time in the here-and-now instead of a date from ancient history, and where uniforms are anything but!" "While it is impractical to send all civilian workers to a centralized indoctrination course, it is possible to provide a common reference, specially designed to acquaint civilians with this very special world they have entered. NavCivGuide is that common reference guide designed specifically for those who, like the Sailors in the Fleet, serve the nation and the Navy, but who also need and deserve help in understanding where they are and what it is all about." "This guide provides new employees and veteran workers alike with the words and steps needed to succeed in the Navy. Just as The Bluejacket's Manual serves as a guide for Sailors, this book provides both new civilian and veteran employees with a ready reference to the culture and organization of the U.S. Navy. This key guide will provide all civilians with an understanding of the Navy's world of acronyms, n-codes, uniforms, and customs. Among its special features are sections on using military salutations properly, reading naval uniforms, understanding the workings of the Department of Defense, and an introduction to ships and airplanes. It is the only comprehensive guide to the military world of the U.S. Navy available for the civilian."--BOOK JACKET.
