Download or read book The American Cavalry in Vietnam written by Jacques-François de Chaunac and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2003 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonel Lyman C. Duryea (Retired) is a West Point graduate and former Commander of "C" Company of the 2d Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment in Vietnam in 1966. He served a second Vietnam tour as an advisor. In addition to various stateside assignments he served in Germany, France, the Congo, Panama, Haiti, and El Salvador. He is a graduate of the US Army Command and General Staff College and the Army War College. He holds Masters Degrees in Military Art and Science from the USAC & GSC, and French from Middlebury College. He has a Doctorate in Military History from Temple University. He has taught on the faculties of the Military Academy, the US Army School of the Americas, and the Army War College. His special interest is revolutionary theory. The action begins in October 1965 in the Vietnamese highlands. When the Green Berets and their allies, the Jarai montagnards are about to be submerged by North Vietnamese assaults, the Huey helicopters of the First Cav, as in Apocalypse Now, sow death in the communist ranks. From that moment on, there is no letup in the action. Ambushes, patrols, and large military operations follow one after the other. The author accompanies the infantrymen into the rice paddies, into the jungle, and on helicopters. He shares the life of the "sky soldiers." Documented using exclusively American sources, this book is also a work of military history. It traces the beginning of this unit, at once unique and autonomous, that has its own infantry, its own artillery, and its own airmobile logistical support system thanks to its five hundred helicopters. The First Cav, the most modern Division in the world created in Vietnam the Rambo myth. It is this same unit that, one hundred years earlier, was at the heart of the legends of the West fighting the Comanche and the Sioux. The Americans leave Vietnam in 1972 with the departure of the last brigade of the First Cav. In April of 1975 Saigon becomes Ho Chi Minh City. Who can say today who the real winner is? A planter in Vietnam in 1974 and 1975, Jacques-Francois de Chaunac lived through the end of the war in Long Thanh. With Francois d'Orcival he is the author of Marines a Khe Sanh (Presses de la Cite).

Book excerpt: This volume presents all the main lectures of the XVIIIth Congress of the International Organization for the Study of the Old Testament (IOSOT) held in Leiden (August 2004). It is a very good sample of the main trends and progress of current biblical research on textual criticism (Qumran and Septuagint), biblical archaeology, literary criticism (especially Pentateuch, Joshua, Kings), biblical themes (especially in wisdom literature), as well as about the light thrown on biblical exegesis by current cognitive linguistics. An appendix deals with the connection between world Christianity and the study of the Old Testament. The twenty authors are among the main international figures of current biblical exegesis and their contributions are representative of the study of the Old Testament at the beginning of the third millenium.

Download or read book Le guide de l leveur de ch vres De la ma trise l optimisation du syst me de production written by Pradal Magali and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2014 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La technicité et le savoir-faire de l’éleveur constituent les clés essentielles de la réussite d’un atelier de productions animales. La production caprine en est une illustration toute particulière, l’élevage de la chèvre étant destiné à la fourniture de lait, de viande, et plus rarement de fibre textile avec la production de mohair. Le guide de l’éleveur de chèvres dresse un panorama exhaustif et documenté d’une production emblématique française. L’ouvrage fait le point sur tous les aspects fondateurs d’une filière de qualité : • la première partie dresse un état des lieux de la filière caprine et présente son organisation à travers les différents systèmes de production et les organismes de services • la deuxième partie aborde les composantes de la production caprine (sélection, reproduction, élevage des jeunes, alimentation, soins, logement et équipements d’élevage) en s’appuyant sur des bases scientifiques et zootechniques actualisées et rationnelles • la troisième partie traite des aspects technico-économiques, abordant tant les résultats de l’élevage que des éléments de références stabilisés. L’ensemble permet ainsi de porter un diagnostic sur l’atelier déjà existant, ou de réaliser une étude prévisionnelle de son futur atelier de production caprine. Cet ouvrage, richement illustré, s’adresse aux chevriers déjà installés ou en réflexion sur leur projet d’installation, à tous les acteurs de la filière caprine ainsi qu’aux enseignants, formateurs et étudiants en enseignement agricole, sans oublier les personnes qui méconnaissent la multitude de métiers que les éleveurs de chèvres doivent savoir maîtriser c’est-à-dire producteur de lait, et bien souvent aussi fromager et commerçant. De plus, il intéressera les éleveurs amateurs qui sont souvent à la recherche de conseils pratiques et de connaissances plus précises sur les soins à apporter à leur troupeau.

Book excerpt: This work, the Acta of the colloquium of the same name held in Hernen (Netherlands), is a collection of essays dealing with the relations between East and West in the context of the Crusader States. In this connection "East" refers in particular to the non-Byzantine Oriental Christians, Muslims and Jews who set the tone for daily life in "Outremer" to a great extent. Attention is focused upon the relations between the various communities, the social position of the minorities, and religious and cultural, especially literary, contacts and influences.
