    It is both the duty and the tradition of the Royal Navy to engage the enemy wherever there is water to float a ship. - Admiral Sir Henry Jackson World War I, also known in its time as the "Great War" or the "War to End all Wars", was an unprecedented holocaust in terms of its sheer scale. Fought by men who hailed from all corners of the globe, it saw millions of soldiers do battle in brutal assaults of attrition, which dragged on for months with little to no respite. Tens of millions of artillery shells and untold hundreds of millions of rifle and machine gun bullets were fired in a conflict that demonstrated man's capacity to kill each other on a heretofore unprecedented scale, and as always, such a war brought about technological innovation at a rate that made the boom of the Industrial Revolution seem stagnant. World War I was the first truly industrial war, and it created a paradigm which reached its zenith with World War II, and towards which virtually all equipment, innovation, and training were dedicated throughout the Cold War and the remainder of the 20th century. To this day, modern warfare remains synonymous with tanks and mass infantry battles, although a confrontation of this nature has not occurred (except briefly during Operation Desert Storm) since World War II. The enduring image of World War I is of men stuck in muddy trenches, and of vast armies deadlocked in a fight neither could win. It was a war of barbed wire, poison gas, and horrific losses as officers led their troops on mass charges across No Man's Land and into a hail of bullets. While these impressions are all too true, they hide the fact that trench warfare was dynamic and constantly evolving throughout the war as all armies struggled to find a way to break through the opposing lines. ungekürzt.

    This is the story of how my family and I had to flee from our homeland, Congo, during the war in 1996-97. It is about how we survived many obstacles, including war, soldiers, snakes, hunger, and exhaustion, through our continued belief in God. Through prayer and dedication, we made it across dangerous waters to countries that, at times, were not very inviting. This is a testament to how prayer can get a person through the tough times - including the many physical, emotional, and spiritual trials we face every day of our lives. Through the glory of God, we can be saved from the harsh world that we live in. This book is also a testament to how keeping faith and not giving into the despair can bring a better life to those who are suffering. Even in times when things looked most hopeless, my family was able to come together in Christ's name. His words brought us comfort, even when our beds were the rocky ground beneath us. Through pray and divine intervention, we were able to resist the temptation of hate and hopelessness, knowing that He was there with us, on the waters of Lake Tanganyika, in the jungles of Tanzania and to our home in Buffalo, NY. This book also gives advice on such things as discrimination, resisting evil and living a Christian lifestyle. I wanted to share my story for many different reasons. First, I wanted to show how faith in God can change someone's life. Next, I wanted to celebrate the joy I have felt by having Christ in my life. Also, I wanted to share many of the lessons I have learned as I came face to face with doubt, hopelessness, and evil. My final reason is because I wanted to give hope to those who feel lost. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Abigail Brill.

    For the first time, a Navy SEAL tells the story of the US's clandestine operations in North Vietnam and the Congo during the Cold War. Sometime in 1965, James Hawes landed in the Congo with cash stuffed in his socks, morphine in his bag, and a basic understanding of his mission: recruit a mercenary navy and suppress the Soviet- and Chinese-backed rebels engaged in guerilla movements against a pro-Western government. He knew the United States must preserve deniability, so he would be abandoned in any life-threatening situation; he did not know that Che Guevara was attempting to export his revolution a few miles away. Cold War Navy SEAL gives unprecedented insight into a clandestine chapter in US history through the experiences of Hawes, a distinguished Navy frogman and later a CIA contractor. His journey began as an officer in the newly-formed SEAL Team 2, where Hawes commanded boats in the CIA's series of covert, hit-and-run raids into North Vietnam. Those raids directly instigated the Gulf of Tonkin Incident. The CIA tapped Hawes to deploy to the Congo, where he would be tasked with creating and leading a paramilitary navy on Lake Tanganyika to disrupt guerilla action in the country. According to the US government, he did not, and could not, exist; he was on his own, 1400 miles from his closest allies, with only periodic letters via air-drop as communication. Hawes recalls recruiting and managing some of the most dangerous mercenaries in Africa, battling rebels with a crew of anti-Castro Cuban exiles, and learning what the rest of the intelligence world was dying to know: the location of Che Guevara. In vivid detail that rivals any action movie, Hawes describes how he forced Guevara from the country, accomplished a seemingly impossible mission, and returned to a successful civilian life. Complete with never-before-seen photographs and interviews with fellow operatives in the Congo, Cold War Navy SEAL is an unblink ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Danny Campbell.
