House to House: An Epic Memoir of War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 560min

This is the personal side of battle, where emotion, courage, and strength are stretched to the limits. In one of the most compelling combat narratives ever written, Staff Sergeant David Bellavia, an Army infantry platoon leader in Iraq, gives a teeth-rattling, first-hand account of 11 straight days of heavy house-to-house fighting during the climactic second battle of Fallujah. His actions in the firefight, which included killing five insurgents in hand-to-hand combat, earned Bellavia the Bronze Star, the Silver Star, and New York State's highest military honor, the Conspicuous Service Cross.

Outside the Wire in Blue , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 670min

In Outside the Wire in Blue, coauthors and American Police Officers David Shearman and James "JT” Taman dramatically reveal the highly successful but little-known DOD civilian law-enforcement advisory program born out of the height of the 2006 campaign against the insurgency in Fallujah, Iraq. During this struggle, US Army and Marine Corps leaders recognized that contemporary tactics and strategies were ineffective against an insurgency that acted more like thugs and criminals than a regular fighting force. The question that plagued these leaders asked who within their arsenal of warriors understood organized crime, the mind-set of criminals, and the tactics and techniques of gangs. The solution was not found within the DOD, it was found in their brothers in blue - the American police officer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Greg Douras.

The History of Iraq, 1900-2012 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 260min

For much of the past 30 years, Iraq has been one of the world’s greatest hot spots. The 1980s saw Ba’athist strongman Saddam Hussein go to war with Iran as well as the Kurds, who maintained an autonomous region of their own in Northern Iraq. Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait touched off a Gulf War that was followed by biting sanctions. And the 2003 American-led invasion against Hussein’s regime provided the uninformed an all-too-brutal crash course on Iraq’s ethnic and religious divisions and the Middle East’s as a whole. For several years, thousands of American soldiers died while fighting both Sunni groups affiliated with al-Qaeda and Shiite militias affiliated with Iran, all while the Sunnis and Shiites targeted each other across the country. Americans became all too familiar with places like Fallujah and names like al-Sadr and al-Zarqawi. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Hare.

Brothers Forever: The Enduring Bond Between a Marine and a Navy Seal That Transcended Their Ultimate Sacrifice , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 578min

Four weeks after Navy SEALs had killed Osama bin Laden, the President of the United States stood in Arlington National Cemetery. In his Memorial Day address, he extolled the courage and sacrifice of the two young men buried side by side in the graves before him: Travis Manion, a fallen US Marine, and Brendan Looney, a fallen US Navy SEAL. Although they were killed three years apart, one in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, these two best friends and former roommates were now buried together - "brothers forever". Award-winning journalist Tom Sileo and Travis’ father, former Marine colonel Tom Manion, tell the intimate and personal story of how these Naval Academy roommates defined a generation’s sacrifice after 9/11, and how Travis and Brendan’s loved ones overcame heartbreak to carry on in their memory. From Travis’ incredible heroism on the streets of Fallujah to Brendan’s anguished Navy SEAL training in the wake of his friend’s death and his own heroism in the mountains of Afghanistan, Brothers Forever is a remarkable story of friendship, family, and war. ungekürzt.

Overwatch: Logan West 1, Hörbuch, Digital, 694min

Als Logan West ohne Nachzudenken an das klingelnde Telefon eines toten Mannes geht, löst er damit einen globalen Wettlauf gegen die Zeit aus. Und zwar eine unbekannte Organisation aufzuspüren, die ein irakisches Artefakt sucht, das eine zentrale Rolle bei einem geplanten Angriff im Mittleren Osten spielt - einem, der die USA in einen großen Konflikt mit dem Iran bringen würde. Logan, ein ehemaliger Marine, wird daraufhin als Sonderberater des FBIs unter Vertrag genommen und dadurch Teil einer Special Task Force, die geheime Operationen im Hintergrund stoppen soll, koste es, was es wolle. Die Kämpfe laufen ununterbrochen, von den Ebenen des Mittleren Westens, über das nördliche Mexiko bis zu der vom Krieg gebeutelten Provinz Al-Anbar, ausgetragen von einem internationalen Team gegen ausgebildete Söldnern der weltweit größten Sicherheitsfirma, dessen Inhaber eine persönliche Vendetta gegen die US-Regierung führt. In der Zwischenzeit hält Logan weiter Stand, obwohl er selbst mit seiner eigenen Vergangenheit zu kämpfen hat. Besonders mit dem Trauma, das seine Force Recon Einheit durch einen Hinterhalt im Folterlager der Rebellen in Fallujah 2004 erleiden musste, und das nun droht, alles zu zerstören. deutsch.

Sara Daniel, a star European correspondent and one of the few women reporters covering Iraq, dares to venture where few have gone, in this gripping and fascinating memoir. In June of 2002, war looms and Saddam Hussein still has a brutal grip on a nation in disarray. Sara Daniel travels the length and breadth of Iraq, following the fast-evolving events and interviewing people from all walks of life and all religious and political affiliations: from the Kurds in the north to the rising new politicians in Baghdad and beyond; from the insurgents in Sadr City and Fallujah to the police chief in Basra; from the hospital doctors tending the maimed and wounded to the directors of museums whose collections were ruthlessly pillaged; from ordinary men and women in the streets to those vying to fill the void of power; from American soldiers on deadly street patrol to the highest-ranking officers. Voyage to a Stricken Land offers a cogent, personal history of one of America’s most controversial conflicts. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Suehyla El Attar.

Reasons to Kill: Why Americans Choose War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 413min

From the American Revolution to the end of World War II, the United States spent 19 years at war against other nations. But since1950, the total is 22 years and counting. On four occasions, U.S. presidents elected as "peace candidates" have gone on to lead the nation into ferocious armed conflicts. Repeatedly, wars deemed necessary when they began have been seen in retrospect as avoidable, and ill-advised. Americans profess to be a peace-loving people and one wary of "foreign entanglements". Yet we have been drawn into wars in distant lands from Vietnam to Afghanistan. We cherish our middle-class comforts and our children. Yet we send our troops to Fallujah and Mogadishu. How is it that ordinary Americans with the most to lose are so easily convinced to follow hawkish leaders - of both parties-into war? In Reasons to Kill noted scholar Richard E. Rubenstein explores both the rhetoric that sells war to the public and the underlying cultural and social factors that make it so effective. With unmatched historical perspective and insightful commentary, Rubenstein offers citizens new ways to think for themselves about crucial issues of war and peace. ungekürzt. Language: English.
