D-Days in the Pacific With the U.S. Coast Guard
Author: Ken WileyPublisher: Casemate
ISBN: 1935149563
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
An award-winning, personal account of US amphibious operations in WWII by a veteran Coast Guardsman—illustrated with photographs and drawings. During World War II, Ken Wiley was a Coast Guardsman on an attack transport in the Pacific. In this work of historical memoir, Wiley relates the complex and often nerve-wracking story of how the United States projected its power across six thousand miles of ocean. Each invasion was a swirl of moving parts, from frogmen to fire support, transport mother ships to attack transports. In this vivid account, Wiley “brings the reader close to the experiences of another band of brothers,” from the camaraderie of young men facing unimaginable circumstances to the last terrifying stage when courageous soldiers stormed the beaches (Military Illustrated). Wiley participated in the campaigns for the Marshall Islands, the Marianas, the Philippines, and Okinawa. He recounts each with a precise eye for detail, relating numerous aspects of landing craft operations, such as ferrying wounded, that are often overlooked. Winner of the 2008 Foundation for Coast Guard History Book Award.

Pages : 339
Book Description
Open Conflict continues from the previous Timelines story of David Mark as he shakes off the memories of an Earth gone immorally mad and searches for a better reality. His twin sister, Darla, is introduced to an unknown relative, Jenni. Together, they continue to follow David's alien space travels whenever they visit the Logos Station library. After the deciphering of the DTRIS file is complete, the alien implant is encased in a time capsule and buried on a distant planet. Through the DTRIS file story, you'll learn how events of Earth's past, present, and future connect to planned evil influence. An influence that persuades mortals to forsake their true heritage, and follow the path of least resistance. The same road that shortens mortal life and allows for the sacrifice of children to materialism or government abuse. There is a revelation concerning the actions of the Orzan, the Sangar, the Gulizors, VorCaveat, and other corrupted species. You'll also discover that time stands still during space travel through dark matter portals. The DTRIS File: Open Conflict is the second book in a compelling new science fiction saga. It continues the story of the happenings in the universe while Earth is going through a third world war. And if nothing else, you'll want to buy a talking cat from Dank Somber if you need a helpful companion.
