Description:Journey Among Warriors is the biography of an unusual Marine. His career began in traditional fashion by service with troops but soon moved out of the conventional pattern to involve him with the people, places, and events that shaped our world in mid-century. The story is far-ranging. It reveals the origins of combat techniques using helicopters, amphibian tractors, and riverine forces. It also addresses strategic planning, nuclear weapons, and the workings of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. But, its greater weight is on politico-military affairs, notably in Haiti, in Southeast Asia, at the time American involvement intensified, and in Africa as it began to fragment into independent states. This makes the story a pilgrimage into history...social, political, economic, and military...at the height of the Cold War. Yet, even when touching the lives of President Ngo Dinh Diem of South Vietnam, President Francois Duvalier of Haiti, and other luminaries, the author maintains a war informality that lends human quality to his narrative.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
