Book Description
Winged Brothers recounts the service exploits of two brothers over more than forty years of naval aviation history in both peace and war. They were deeply committed to each other and to advancing their chosen profession, but due to the vast difference in their ages and the fourteen years between their respective graduations from the U.S. Naval Academy, they experienced carrier aviation from very different perspectives. The older brother, Ernest, entered naval aviation in an era of open-cockpit biplanes when the Navy’s operations from aircraft carriers were still taking form when Fleet Problems were still the primary means of determining aviation’s warfighting utility and proving its merits to the fleet. Macon’s story guides the reader through the Navy’s transition from piston-engine aircraft to jets. For the entirety of their time in uniform, the one constant was a close fraternal bond that saw Ernest as mentor and Macon as devoted admirer and protégé, only to see those roles recede as the younger brother’s achievements transcended those of the older brother. Through personal letters, official reports, first-hand accounts, and first-person interviews, their symbiotic relationship is revealed to the reader.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
The Cleansing of the Earth 2012 tells the transfixing and unforgettable story of Lucyna Lobos, who experienced a clinical death in a Poland hospital. Later, during a hypnotic regression, she saw an insightful and extraordinary vision -- which gave her answers to the secrets of the Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt. Her memories hold a fascinating, riveting tale. A young Ancient Egyptian priestess is appointed by the gods to fulfill her mission in the Age of Aquarius. This is at the time of King Khufu, the builder of the Great Pyramid. Khufu, the One Who Arrived from the Sky, came to Earth to build this amazing structure with Star Visitors from the Ashun Planet in the Orion Constellation. They placed an "Energy-Magnetic System" in the pyramid. The system will protect the Earth during the return of the Nibiru Planet -- the same one that caused the biblical flood some twelve thousand years ago. Now it is up to the Lucyna Lobos and the organization that supports her to convince everyone that change is coming in the year 2012, when the Earth and its people will be cleansed and humans will achieve the fourth dimension. This will be the fulfillment of the Age of Aquarius.
