Download or read book Silent Warriors Incredible Courage written by Wolfgang W. E. Samuel and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outbreak of the Korean War in June 1950 took the American military by surprise. Rushing to respond, the US and its allies developed a selective overflight program to gather intelligence. Silent Warriors, Incredible Courage is a history of the Cold War overflights of the Soviet Union, its allies, and the People's Republic of China, based on extensive interviews with dozens of pilots who flew these dangerous missions. In 1954 the number of flights expanded, and the highly classified SENSINT program was born. Soon, American RB-45C, RB-47E/H, RF-100s, and various versions of the RB-57 were in the air on an almost constant basis, providing the president and military leadership with hard facts about enemy capabilities and intentions. Eventually the SENSINT program was replaced by the high-flying U-2 spy plane. The U-2 overflights removed the mysteries of Soviet military power. These flights remained active until 1960 when a U-2 was shot down by Russian missiles, leading to the end of the program. Shortly thereafter planes were replaced by spy satellites. The overflights were so highly classified that no one, planner or participant, was allowed to talk about them—and no one did, until the overflight program and its pictorial record was declassified in the 1990s. Through extensive research of existing literature on the overflights and interviews conducted by Wolfgang W. E. Samuel, this book reveals the story of the entire overflight program through the eyes of the pilots and crew who flew the planes. Samuel's account tells the stories of American heroes who risked their lives—and sometimes lost them—to protect their country.

Each of them generated mind-expanding experiences that prepared Dan for his calling as a down-to-earth spiritual teacher.

Download or read book The Quiet Warrior written by Thomas B Buell and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regarded as the standard biography of World War II naval hero Adm. Raymond A. Spruance, this work is now available in trade paperback for the first time. Spruance, victor of the battles of Midway and the Philippine Sea and commander of the Fifth Fleet in the invasions of the Gilberts, the Marshalls, the Marianas, and Okinawa, is one of the towering figures in American naval history. Yet his reserved, cerebral personality did not make “good copy” for correspondents, and until the publication of The Quiet Warrior he remained an elusive figure. Thomas Buell has succeeded in evoking the nature of the man as well as recording the achievements of the admiral in this brilliant biography, which won the Alfred Thayer Mahan Award for Literary Achievement the year of its publication.

Download or read book Silent Warriors written by Jack K. Wakamatsu and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Silent warriors: a memoir of America's 442nd Regimental Combat Team is author Jack K. Wakamatsu's deeply felt account of his experiences in World War II. A Nisei, or Japanese-American, Wakamatsu finds himself in a particularly unique position as the war begins. As our government interns his parents in the infamous Manzanar "security camp", his father's business left in unscrupulous hands, Jack and many of his Nisei friends prepare to wage war in the European theater, their twofold aim: to fight for liberty, and to prove to their Caucasian counterparts that they, too, are loyal, patriotic Americans. Made up mostly of Nisei like Wakamatsu, the 442nd's exploits and adventures make for unforgettable reading. In a particularly unsettling episode, a young soldier returns from a harrowing day on the front line, only to learn that angry neighbors have turned against his parents back home and burned them out of their house. The incident is rendered doubly poignant in light of the tremendous dedication and discipline of the 442nd soldiers, many of whom would go on to make the ultimate sacrifice before the war ends. In an era where, as the author points out, we take our priceless freedom entirely too much for granted, Silent warriors is a chilling reminder of the high price that has so often been paid for the sake of preserving American democracy"--Jacket.
