Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Four Years of Camp, March and Battle Detailed by proper authority to recount to this Post of the Grand Army of the Republic my own army experience, I am here in obedience to the order, and will give you, as briefly as I may, a sketch of those events, "all of which I saw, and part of which I was." The dullest and most irksome period of a soldier's life is the time spent in the first camp of the regiment. Camps of rendezvous are regarded as necessary evils, to be just tolerated until the first "marching orders" come. The departure is a day of rejoicing. The incessant "Left," "Left," gives place to the hurry of preparation. Shouts of joy are heard, and mirth and jollity reign in every row of barracks. The 48th Ind. Vols. was no exception to the rule. There was an excellent drill-ground in Camp Ellis, where the regiment was organized, and very faithfully were its advantages improved. Week in, week out, from four to six hours a day, Sundays-excepted, it was one unvarying succession of squad, company, and battalion drill - a service which the soldier seldom fully appreciates until the battle-field shows him its utility. The men took hold of the work with considerable alacrity, but after awhile they began to clamor for a sight of the enemy. Our colors came from Indianapolis. They were greeted with hearty cheers, as in those days the flag always was, for we had learned to love it then as we never did before. The guns of Sumter gave the Stars and Stripes a meaning and a beauty which it had not before entered into our hearts to conceive. Thus these new colors under which we were to right, and many were to die, that were to lead the regiment in the stern trials of the battle, oh! how beautiful they were! Then the war fever grew apace. Only to drill was too tame. Sterner work was needed; and we were the boys to do it. At last, the welcome orders came, and when our gallant colonel inquired, "Forty-eighth, are you ready?" the Hoosier shout that went up in answer was not mere bravado, but indicated stern determination. It was a noble regiment that marched out of Camp Ellis on the 7th day of February, 1862. Fathers, and sons, and husbands were there, all animated, filled, and sublimed with the one great purpose to snatch the nation from the grasp of traitors. For this they were ready to risk life itself. For this many of them did give up their lives, dying that the nation might live. We reached Cairo on tin evening of the 8th of February, and that night received rations of "hard tack" for the first time. Few of us had ever seen that article; but then, as through all the war, we found it very good to remove hunger, and sometimes teeth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Live at the Front: Tips for American Soldiers Generally it is a small percentage of the men in an army who are actually grap pling with the enemy. Hence a large per centage of one 's life at the front is spent under similar conditions to those prevail ing in a military practice camp. Perhaps conditions will change. I have had the honor of addressing young officers and men here preparing for active service, and have followed informal lines, giving straight tips about the things that struck me more forcibly in training and at the front. In this book I have fol lowed similar lines. This and the fact of my having to work under pressure in the preparation of the manuscript will explain its informal treatment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Frank Merriwell in Camp "There!" grunted Bruce Browning, as he lay back and looked at the white roof of the tent. "I do hope we are settled at last. I feel like piling onto that bed and taking a good snooze." "But you can't do it, my boy!" declared Frank Mrriwell. "Can't? Why not?" "This is a cadet encampment." "What of that? We're not cadets." "But we must conform to certain rules, as long as we have been given the courtesy of a tent. It would demoralize the whole camp if we were to laze round on the beds so that the cadets could look in and see us." "That's so," nodded Bart Hodge, who was taking care that everything was in perfect order. "My gracious," gasped Bruce. "Do you mean to tell me that I can't be comfortable here - that I am to be robbed of my regular afternoon nap?" "There will be no daytime naps taken in this tent," declared Frank. "Not before tattoo sounds at night can you think of retiring, and at reveille you'll have to turn out." "Oh, say! I don't think much of that! What are we here for? That won't be any fun."

Download or read book Camp Fire Stories written by Edward Anderson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Camp Fire Stories: A Series of Sketches of the Union Army in the Southwest Somehow a story seems to tell what war meant, in all its phases, better than does a mere description; and what a man has seen and felt is better understood if the incidents of the seeing and feeling are graphically told by the one who did them both. So I have yielded as "the boys" have urged that I write these stories out as they have been told at our Grand Army Camp-Fires; because, they said, we old soldiers would be soon dead, and the young folks who had grown up to take our places should have left them our legacy of experience - the fun and the pathos, the drama and the tragedy - that they might know what their fathers went through in saving this country during its first internecine strife. Therefore I have written these Camp-Fire stories for the old comrades in arms to the reviving of their memories, and for their sons and daughters to the letting them see what war was. Five of the hospital stories were published a few years ago in the "Golden Rule," the organ of the Y. P.S. C. E., though even these are retold in this book; two or three have been published in local papers; and at least two of the jokes I gave to Harper's Drawer.

Download or read book They Called Us Enemy Expanded Edition written by George Takei and published by Top Shelf Productions. This book was released on 2020-08-26 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling graphic memoir from actor/author/activist George Takei returns in a deluxe edition with 16 pages of bonus material! Experience the forces that shaped an American icon -- and America itself -- in this gripping tale of courage, country, loyalty, and love. George Takei has captured hearts and minds worldwide with his magnetic performances, sharp wit, and outspoken commitment to equal rights. But long before he braved new frontiers in STAR TREK, he woke up as a four-year-old boy to find his own birth country at war with his father's -- and their entire family forced from their home into an uncertain future. In 1942, at the order of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, every person of Japanese descent on the west coast was rounded up and shipped to one of ten "relocation centers," hundreds or thousands of miles from home, where they would be held for years under armed guard. THEY CALLED US ENEMY is Takei's firsthand account of those years behind barbed wire, the terrors and small joys of childhood in the shadow of legalized racism, his mother's hard choices, his father's tested faith in democracy, and the way those experiences planted the seeds for his astonishing future. What does it mean to be American? Who gets to decide? George Takei joins cowriters Justin Eisinger & Steven Scott and artist Harmony Becker for the journey of a lifetime.
