 Название: The Band That Went to War: The Royal Marine Band in the Falklands War
Автор: Brian Short
Издательство: Pen & Sword Military
Год: 2021
Страниц: 216
Язык: английский
Формат: epub
Размер: 16.1 MB
The Royal Marines are renowned for their military skill and also for having one of the finest military bands in the world. These highly trained and talented musicians are equally at home parading at Buckingham Palace, playing at the Royal Albert Hall, or on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier in a foreign port. Why then when the Argentines invaded the Falklands in April 1982 did these superb musicians get involved in what became a serious and deadly military campaign? The answer is that, in addition to their musical expertise, the RM Band Service members are trained for military service and fully qualified in a multitude of military and medical skills, providing support to their comrades, the fighting commandos. | |

Название: Osprey New Vanguard 113 - M3 Lee/Grant Medium Tank 1941-1945
Автор: Steven J. Zaloga
Издательство: Osprey Publishing
Год: 2005
Формат: PDF
Страниц: 48
Размер: 2,6 МБ
Язык: Английский
The highly successful 'stop-gap' M3 medium tank was designed in 1941, and as adequate turret casting facilities were not yet ready, the M3 used an unusual armament configuration patterned after a French tank. British lend-lease demands led to the design of a second turret type with the US version called the Lee and the British version the Grant. It could penetrate Panzer armor, and its explosive firepower was excellent for dealing with German anti-tank guns.

The Holocaust is the most researched and written about genocide in history. Known facts should be beyond dispute. Yet Holocaust memory is often formed and dictated by governments and others with an agenda to fulfil, or by deniers who seek to rewrite the past due to vested interests and avowed prejudices.

Название: Asia in Flanders Fields: Indians and Chinese on the Western Front, 1914–1920
Автор: Dominiek Dendooven
Издательство: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 152676333
Год: 2021
Формат: PDF
Страниц: 270
Размер: 23,9 МБ
Язык: Английский
The First World War brought peoples from five continents to support the British and French Allies on the Western Front. Many were from colonial territories in the British and French empires, and the largest contingents were Indians and Chinese - some 140,000. It is a story of the encounter with the European 'other', including the civilian European local populations, often marred by racism, discrimination and zenophobia both inside and outside the military command, but also lightened by moving and enduring 'human' social relationships.

 Название: German Prisoners of the Great War: Life in a Yorkshire Camp
Автор: Anne Buckley
Издательство: Pen and Sword Military
Год: 2021
Страниц: 352
Язык: английский
Формат: epub
Размер: 17.7 MB
In Munich in 1920, just after the end of the First World War, German officers who had been prisoners of war in England published a book they had written and smuggled back to Germany. Through vivid text and illustrations they describe in detail their experience of life in captivity in a camp at Skipton in Yorkshire. Their work, now translated into English for the first time, gives us a unique insight into their feelings about the war, their captors and their longing to go home. German Prisoners of the Great War offers us a direct inside of view a hitherto neglected aspect of the wartime experience a century ago. | |
