Smoke Em If You Got Em
Author: Joel Bius
Publisher: Naval Institute Press
ISBN: 1682473600
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
The American military-industrial complex and accompanying culture are most often associated with massive weapons procurement programs and advanced technologies. However, one aspect of the complex is not a weapon or even a machine, but one of the world’s most highly engineered consumer products: the manufactured cigarette. Smoke ’Em If You Got ’Em describes the origins of the often comfortable, yet increasingly controversial relationship among the military, the cigarette industry, and tobaccoland politicians during the twentieth century. Smoke ’Em If You Got ’Em is also a study in modern American political economy. Bureaucrats, soldiers, lobbyists, government executives, legislators, litigators, or anti-smoking activists all struggled over far-reaching policy issues involving the cigarette. The soldier-cigarette relationship established by the Army in World War I and broken apart in the mid-1980s underpinned one of the most prolific social, cultural, economic, and healthcare-related developments in the twentieth century: the rise and proliferation of the American manufactured cigarette smoker and the powerful cigarette enterprise supporting them. Using the manufactured cigarette as a vehicle to explore political economy and interactions between the military and American society, Joel R. Bius helps the reader understand this important, yet overlooked aspect of twentieth-century America.

The First 40
Author: Brodee Reed
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1532078617
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Brodee Reed did the same thing every morning: After twenty minutes on the elliptical and drenched like a duck in a rain storm, he would shower, shave, and start making his rounds at the local bars where everyone knew my name. He finally had to ask myself: Had he become an alcoholic? Had he lost all control of being a responsible father, husband, and adult? How much longer could his family, conscience, and physical health survive his daily routine of drinking? In this memoir, he reveals what finally led him to enter a rehabilitation program, the steps of the detox process, and what he learned in classes about addiction, family, meditation, and ways to live a sober life. The First Forty is not all about drinking, drugs, rehab, and bad stuff that the author did—it’s also about his life as a father, soldier, husband, and life in the seventies, eighties, and nineties. It’s about great times, bad times, traveling the world, coaching, and being a man that pushes forward.

Book Description
This is your first day in the military. You have been walking around in your underwear most of the day. You have been taking test after test. Finally, you take the Oath. You are now officially in the military. At one p.m. someone shows up in a van and drives you to your basic training site. Who are you? You are Army recruits I've had the privilege of driving to either Fort Knox, Kentucky, or Fort Jackson, South Carolina; or maybe you're a Marine recruit going to Parris Island, South Carolina. But you will all be one of a thousand young men and women I had the privilege of transporting to their basic training stations over a period of three years. For, I am "the man who drives the van."
