The United States Air Force, which had been only a token presence on the continent since the end of World War II, once more crossed the Atlantic in strength. The commitment of that service to...

Fighter Aces: Knights of the Sky
ISBN: 9781612004822 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Casemate Short History Series presents readable and entertaining introductions to military history topics. Just over a decade after the first successful powered flight, fearless pioneers were flying over the battlefields of France in flimsy biplanes. As more aircraft took to the skies, their pilots began to develop tactics to take down enemy aviators. Though the infantry in their muddy trenches might see aerial combat as glorious and chivalric, the reality for these 'Knights of the Sky' was very different and undeniably deadly: new Royal Flying Corps subalterns in 1917 had a life...

ISBN: 9780891418566 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. No one in Vietnam had to tell door gunner and gunship crew chief Al Sever that the odds didn t look good. He volunteered for the job well aware that hanging out of slow-moving choppers over hot LZs blazing with enemy fire was not conducive to a long life. But that wasn t going to stop Specialist Sever.
From Da Nang to Cu Chi and the Mekong Delta, Sever spent thirty-one months in Vietnam, fighting in eleven of the war s sixteen campaigns. Every morning when his gunship lifted off, often to the clacking and muzzle flashes of AK-47s hidden in the dawn fog, Sever knew he might not return....

Little Friends, Volume IV
ISBN: 9781523790357 / Angielski / Miękka / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. World War Two was probably the most documented event in all of human existence. US Army records weight 17,120 tons. That's about 188 miles of filing cabinets arranged side by side. Obviously, that is a lot of territory so my series is very succinct. The series is a mini-history with a focus on the air war, the men / women, the events and the times. I divided the book into very detailed sections. Example: Volume 4 covers the development of air to ground to support - the attack aircraft and dive bomber. I used the Spanish Civil War their being and accented their development in Burma. Some of...
