Klobuchar - The USS Ward: An Operational History of the Ship That Fired the First American Shot of World War II McFarland & Company | 2006 | ISBN: 0786423846 | English | 288 pages | PDF | 139.13 MB In 1940, with the threat of war in the Pacific imminent, the United States was forced to expand its fleet as quickly as possible. This included reconditioning and recommissioning "four stackers" from the navy's reserve fleet. It was here that the U.S.S. Ward came into her own, earning the distinction of firing the first shot in America's war against Japan and serving three years in combat until it was sunk - with no loss of life - on December 7, 1944. From the first confrontation at Pearl Harbor through the Ward's last mission in the Philippines, this history gives a detailed account of the life and times of the ship and her crew of 125 men, 82 of whom were naval reservists from St. Paul, Minnesota. On May 15, 1918, at Mare Island Shipyard in California, Master Shipfitter J.T. Maroney laid the keel of a hull designated simply as DD-139. In a record that still stands, Maroney had the hull ready for launching in only 17 days instead of the four months usually required. One of the last Wickes class destroyers built in the waning days of World War I, the Ward was commissioned too late to participate in the action for which it was ordered. Little is known regarding the ship's World War I days because of lack of contemporary resources. The work provides a vivid description of the Ward's service during World War II. Interviews with surviving crewmen and forewords by Kenneth C. Swedberg and Guy E. Thompson, former shipmates, are included. Other sources include information from the National Archives and the Naval Historical Center. Appendices provide Ward technical data, a chronology of major events, a listing of amphibious landings and a roster of personnel. ![]() Free Download Martin Bowman - The USAF at War: From Pearl Harbour to the Present Day Patrick Stephens Ltd | 1995 | ISBN: 1852604875 | English | 200 pages | PDF | 111.82 MB A dynamic tribute to American airpower.

While many of the issues facing the military profession examined in the first edition remain, the 'new war' and international terrorism have compounded the challenges. The US military must respond to the changed domestic and strategic landscapes without diminishing its primary function-a function that now many see that goes beyond success on the battlefield. Not only has this complicated the problem of reconciling the military professional ethos and raison d'etre with civilian control in a democracy, it challenges traditional military professionalism. This book also studies the notion of a US military stretched thin and relying more heavily on the US Federal Reserves and National Guard. These developments make the US military profession increasingly linked to public attitudes and political perspectives. In sum, the challenge faced by the US military profession can be termed a dual dilemma. It must respond effectively to the twenty-first century strategic landscape while undergoing the revolution in military affairs and transformation. At the same time, the military profession must insure that it remains compatible with civilian cultures and the US political-social system without eroding its primary function. This is an invaluable book for allstudents with an interest in the US Military, and of strategic studies and military history in general. ![]() Free Download Nathan Miller - The U.S. Navy: An Illustrated History American Heritage, Naval Institute Press | 1977 | ISBN: 0671229842, 0671229850 | English | 425 pages | PDF | 193.83 MB Paintings, photographs, charts, maps, ship plans, and battle diagrams supplement an account of the Navy's course from its colonial beginnings to its current deployment. ![]() Free Download The U.S. Experience with No-Fault Automobile Insurance: A Retrospective By James M. Anderson, Paul Heaton 2010 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 083304916X | PDF | 1 MB No-fault regimes, a formerly popular alternative to the tort compensation system for auto-accident victims, have gradually lost support. Over time, premiums and claim costs have grown in no-fault states relative to other states, primarily driven by explosive medical cost increases. No-fault and tort states have also converged across many domains affecting costs, including excess claiming, litigation patterns, and noneconomic-damage payments. ![]() Free Download The U.S. 37-MM Gun in World War II by Charles C Roberts English | November 30th, 2023 | ISBN: 1636242529 | 192 pages | True EPUB (Retail Copy) | 38.29 MB Developed in response to the 1899 Hague Convention, the 37-mm gun met the restrictions on the size of weapons that could fire explosive shells, yet was also light and lethal enough to be used in battle. After World War I, in which the French Model 1916 37-mm was used extensively, several countries developed or adopted the 37-mm gun. ![]() Free Download Jak Mallmann Showell - The U-boat Century: German Submarine Warfare 1906-2006 Chatham Publishing | 2006 | ISBN: 1861762410 | English | 256 pages | PDF | 154.71 MB On a sweltering day in August 1906 U-1, or Unterseeboot 1, meaning underwater boat, was lifted into Kiel s waters for trials; 100 hundred years later Kiel still witnesses the launching of U-boats, modern submarines with fuel cell propulsion systems, built for navies worldwide. In the years in between Germany fought two world wars, in which the U-boat almost defeated the Allies. The U-boat was one of the most potent weapons of the 20th century, and here Mallmann Showell, perhaps the world s leading U-boat historian, explains how it was developed and designed and then deployed to wreak havoc in European waters and further afield in the Atlantic and the Far East. This is not a dry technical book but a work that looks behind the scenes at the men who built and fought in them. Weapons systems, operational areas, bases, builders and fleet organisation are covered, and as well as dealing with the world wars, the author brings the story up to date with the third, latest, generation of U-boats. The text is augmented by over 300 images, many never published before. This new work sheds broad and fascinating new insights into the development of the U-boat and will be an essential addition to the library of every modern naval historian and enthusiast. ![]() Free Download The Two Swords of Christ: Five Centuries of War between Islam and the Warrior Monks of Christendom by Raymond Ibrahim English | November 25th, 2025 | ISBN: 9798888457238 | 512 pages | True EPUB | 9.05 MB The definitive account of the warrior-monks who stood as Christendom's shield against centuries of relentless Islamic aggression and a superlative example of Muscular Christianity for an era marred by effete and effeminized forms of the faith. ![]() Free Download The Two Hundred Years War: The Bloody Crowns of England and France, 1292-1492 by Dr Michael Livingston, Michael Livingston English | October 9, 2025 | ISBN: 1035906368 | 496 pages | EPUB | 2.72 Mb A new and radically original account of the longest military conflict in European history, which challenges the conventional periodisation of the 'Hundred Years War' to consider a much longer period of Anglo-French conflict. |
