Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout biblical history, some faiths have fought and argued over the bloodlines of Isaac and Ishmael and the covenant God made through Abraham. Many consider the two brothers as the father of the Jews and the father of the Arabs. In this story the two bloodlines stem into present day Megiddo, Israel when King Rueben Tobias, a Jew, marries a Muslim princess, Senobia. Turmoil amongst the Jews and Muslims living within the kingdom arose after the marriage in fear of the heir to the throne. Some believe religion is passed through the mother, and in this instance the Jews did not want a Muslim as the King's heir if the Queen were to bear a child. Senobia is assassinated after she bore Aramon. This caused tension between the Jews and Muslims for the next few years. However, the tension becomes much worse when King Rueben decides to remarry, this time to Avigail, an American Christian. The confrontations between the Jews and Muslims have now included the Christian citizens of Megiddo after the birth of Avigail's son, Aden. King Ruben's once harmonious kingdom of the three faiths has now risen to a kingdom of violence, hatred and discrimination amongst the citizens. Uneasy sleep leads the King into a dream where he is met by an angel. The angel tells Rueben of his bloodline of his forefather Isaac and his late wife's bloodline to Ishmael. The angel explains the catastrophic events that will take place in the near future if his oldest son succeeds the throne and the importance of Aden becoming the next King. King Rueben explains his dream to Avigail as Aramon, unfortunately, overhears his future to be King is no more. Struck with jealousy, Aramon is quickly influenced by a fallen angel, Sappharus, and plots to kill his family in order to become the successor to the throne. After the death of King Rueben, Aramon claims the throne and under his rule Christians and Jews live in a society of unfair persecution. Aramon's only threat is his baby brother Aden. By the protection of the Chieftain Angel of God, Michael, Aden must fulfill his destiny and claim the throne as the rightful heir. As an adult, Aden's confrontation with his brother ignites war between the Israeli and Megiddo armies, a supernatural war between angels and demons and a climactic battle between Sappharus and Michael. These events impact faiths all over the world, which soon lead to the war of all wars-Armageddon.

Download or read book My Brother in Arms The Exceptional Life of Mark Andrew Forester United States Air Force Combat Controller written by Thad Forester and published by . This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On September 29, 2010 my brother, Mark Forester, was KIA while fighting terrorists in Uruzgan Province, Afghanistan. His heroic legacy of being shot down while preparing to rescue a fallen teammate began long before this tragic day. An Apache aviator said of Mark's final battle: ...I have never witnessed such an act of heroism in my three years of fighting in combat. I have over 2,700 hours total time with 1,500 hours of combat time in both Iraq and Afghanistan...JAG 28 continued to advance on the enemy while taking intense enemy fire, and continuously fired his weapon in an attempt to get to his fallen teammate and destroy the enemy. Mark chose to enlist in the Air Force as a Special Operations Combat Controller after he received his Bachelor's degree from The University of Alabama. Because of his above average grades and near-photographic memory, his Business Finance degree would have done him well. But, he felt a higher calling; one that put him between us and the enemies bent on our destruction. Mark is the youngest of five children. He is my younger brother and I write from that viewpoint. We were the youngest in the family and he was my best friend. There are few things in life that I can speak of with total confidence and conviction-my little brother is one of them. Mark's military career was only a small part of his life, so this book doesn't highlight just the last three years of his 29 years on earth, but I've tried to capture his entire life. From his family environment, to his spiritual beliefs, to his trials, and then to his physical talents; these all prepared him to face his most vicious battles in one of the most violent areas of the world. Since his death, our eyes and hearts have been opened to multiple examples of selflessness and patriotism by meeting his teammates and leaders in the military. We have witnessed first-hand their ability to turn off their stern, professional personae and turn on compassion, love, support and acceptance. I feel a strong desire to Honor our Heroes. This book highlights one hero, SrA Mark A. Forester, and also helps recognize many other men and women who volunteer to fight for our freedom. My Brother in Arms is not a memorial in print, but a biography for continuing Mark's legacy of perseverance, determination and accomplishing our missions on earth. We each have different missions, but what's important is for each of us to recognize ours and work to accomplish it. In the end, don't we all want to go out while moving forward?

Download or read book Proud to be written by Kelly Flinn and published by Random House (NY). This book was released on 1997 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary young woman. An extraordinary controversy. This is Kelly Flinn's story--the one she couldn't tell when she was in uniform. "I fell in love with the wrong man."--Kelly Flinn She is the first woman to pilot a B-52, a charismatic twenty-six-year-old from a proper Georgia family who has always distinguished herself--as a fifteen- year-old at U.S. Space Camp and as a cadet at the U.S. Air Force Academy. There, she overcame considerable odds and earned a coveted position as a combat pilot. But nothing prepared Lieutenant Kelly Flinn for the controversy that erupted when the military began an investigation into her relationship with Marc Zigo, a man who lied to her about his marital status and then betrayed her to military authorities. Flinn was forced to resign amid charges of disobeying orders--charges she disputes in this poignant and powerful memoir. This is the story of Flinn's love affair with flying . . . and the love affair that ended her trailblazing Air Force career. This is also the story of a determined young woman fighting for her rightful place in a military establishment run by men, many of whom are not yet ready to accept a female combat pilot. Flinn reveals examples of hypocrisy and sexism in the military that are, by any standard, infuriating. She rose higher and fell harder, but Kelly Flinn's story is universal, and it powerfully dramatizes the fault lines between our private and professional lives. With disarming candor, Flinn takes us inside her world. We feel her exhilaration as she soars through the sky and commands her own plane, and we share her horror as the love she dreamed of turns into a nightmare and she must battle the military's sexpolice behind closed doors. Kelly Flinn has been called "the Hester Prynne of our time," and her life has been depicted in the media as a combination of Top Gun and The Scarlet Letter. In Proud to Be, she speaks in her own voice--determined, vulnerable, and all too human.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Battle of Fort Wagner in 1863, Sgt. William Harvey Carney picked up the fallen flag from his lifeless comrade. He waved the flag for all of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry to see and led the way to the parapet to plant the colors. After Col. Robert Gould Shaw was mortally wounded, Carney inspired his infantry forward. Even after sustaining severe wounds, Carney proudly declared, “Boys, the old flag never touched the ground!” After this battle, Carney became the first African American to receive the Medal of Honor. Since the American Civil War, scores of African Americans have served with great distinction. Through thousands of historical accounts, photographs, and documentary evidence, Robert Jefferson introduces the 89 black soldiers who continued forward when all odds were against them. The heroes within these pages faced certain death and definite danger without flinching. Jefferson paints a vivid portrait of African-American soldiers who carried the flag of freedom and how they reshaped the very definition of courage under fire during some of the most harrowing moments in United States military history. In turn, their courage and determination left an indelible mark on the American portrait.
