Condizione: Fair. Vietnam was a different kind of war, calling for a different kind of soldier. The LRRPs--Long Range Reconnaissance Patrols--were that new breed of fighting man. They operated in six-man teams deep within enemy territory, and were the eyes and ears of the units they served. This is their story--of perseverence under extreme hardship and uncommon bravery--and how they carried out the war's most hazardous missions.…

Condizione: Good. SOLDIERS OF $$ Privateers, contract killers, corporate warriors. Contract soldiers go by many names, but they all have one thing in common: They fight for money and plunder rather than liberty, God, or country. Now acclaimed author and war vet Michael Lee Lanning traces the compelling history of these fighting machines-from the Sea Peoples who fought for the pharaohs' greater glory to today's soldiers for hire from private military companies (PMCs) in Iraq and Afghanistan. What emerges is a fascinating account of the men who fight other people's wars-the Greeks who built an empire for Alexander the Great, the Nubians who accompanied Hannibal across the Alps, the Irish who became the first to go global in their search for work. Soldiers of fortune have always had the power to change the course of war, and Lanning examines their pivotal roles in individual battles and in the rise and fall of empires. As the employment of contract soldiers spreads in Iraq and America's War on Terrorism-the U.S. paid $30 billion to PMCs in 2003 alone-Mercenaries offers a valuable inside look at a system that appears embedded in our nation's future. Includes eight pages of photographs.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. Eleven years before Rosa Parks resisted going to the back of the bus, a young black second lieutenant, hungry to fight Nazis in Europe, refused to move to the back of a U.S. Army bus in Texas and found himself court-martialed. The defiant soldier was Jack Roosevelt Robinson, already in 1944 a celebrated athlete in track and football and in a few years the man who would break Major League Baseball?s color barrier. This was the pivotal moment in Jackie Robinson?s pre-MLB career. Had he been found guilty, he would not have been the man who broke baseball?s color barrier. Had the incident never happened, he would?ve gone overseas with the Black Panther tank battalion - and who knows what after that. Having survived this crucible of unjust prosecution as an American soldier, Robinson - already a talented multisport athlete - became the ideal player to integrate baseball.…
