One Mo' Time is the story of one crew's 35 Strategic Bombing Missions in a B-17 Flying Fortress during World War II. The Details of the missions I describe are from a diary I kept. Some details I have omitted. I am not a prude in any way, but men living on the brink of death act differently than in their normal lifestyle. Therefore, this is rather a story - the fears, the laughter, the tears - of men who fought a war.
This book is dedicated to the men and women who served with the 1st Australian Field Hospital (1 AFH) during the Vietnam War in Vung Tau, South Vietnam, from 1 April 1968 when the unit was raised, until it returned to Australia on 25 November 1971. It honours them and the patients who passed through the hospital doors, into their care. Australians fought in the Vietnam War between 1962 - 1975. The hospital comprised triage, operating theatres, pathology, pharmacy, X-ray, physiotherapy, psychiatry, outpatients, RAP, a six-bed intensive care ward and 50 bed medical and 50 bed surgical ward. It was also supported by a Q-store, an orderly room, messes and accommodation. Units attached to the hospital were the 33rd Dental Unit, 1st Field Medical and Dental Stores, 1st Field Hygiene Company, Chaplains and Australian Red Cross representatives. Medical services provided by the hospital were of such a high standard that the survival rate, for soldiers arriving at the hospital alive, was 99%. This success rate still stands today as a truly remarkable achievement! On the 7th November 1971, Australia's combat role in the Vietnam conflict ended when the 4th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment completed its withdrawal from Nui Dat.Call Sign Vampire provides a window into the frenetic world of a military hospital in a war zone. It draws on the experiences of hospital personnel remembering their work and environment, on patients recalling their firsthand experiences, on helicopter pilots and medics describing the evacuation of casualties to the Vampire Pad at the hospital. It recounts stories from the wounded, reliving what happened to them when they became battle casualties and their subsequent treatment. This book is a celebration of the dedication temerity and care of a unique group of Australians, thrown together to get on with the job of treating the injured and wounded, a consequence of Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War. In December 1971, after returning to Australia, 1 AFH relocated to Manunda Lines, Ingleburn NSW and the unit was re-designated as 1st Field Hospital where it operated as a closed hospital facility.

“This funny and fresh take on a classic tale manages to comment on gender roles, racial disparities, and white privilege all while creeping me all the way out. So good.”—Zakiya Dalila Harris, author of The Other Black Girl Steel Magnolias meets Dracula in this New York Times best-selling horror novel about a women's book club that must do battle with a mysterious newcomer to their small Southern town. Bonus features: • Reading group guide for book clubs • Hand-drawn map of Mt. Pleasant • Annotated true-crime reading list by Grady Hendrix • And more! Patricia Campbell’s life has never felt smaller. Her husband is a workaholic, her teenage kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she’s always a step behind on her endless to-do list. The only thing keeping her sane is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime. At these meetings they’re as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are about their own families. One evening after book club, Patricia is viciously attacked by an elderly neighbor, bringing the neighbor's handsome nephew, James Harris, into her life. James is well traveled and well read, and he makes Patricia feel things she hasn’t felt in years. But when children on the other side of town go missing, their deaths written off by local police, Patricia has reason to believe James Harris is more of a Bundy than a Brad Pitt. The real problem? James is a monster of a different kind—and Patricia has already invited him in. Little by little, James will insinuate himself into Patricia’s life and try to take everything she took for granted—including the book club—but she won’t surrender without a fight in this blood-soaked tale of neighborly kindness gone wrong.
What’s it like to travel at more than 850 MPH, riding in a supersonic T-38 twin turbojet engine airplane? What happens when the space station toilet breaks? How do astronauts “take out the trash” on a spacewalk, tightly encapsulated in a space suit with just a few layers of fabric and Kevlar between them and the unforgiving vacuum of outer space? The Ordinary Spaceman puts you in the flight suit of U.S. astronaut Clayton C. Anderson and takes you on the journey of this small-town boy from Nebraska who spent 167 days living and working on the International Space Station, including more than forty hours of space walks. Having applied to NASA fifteen times over fifteen years to become an astronaut before his ultimate selection, Anderson offers a unique perspective on his life as a veteran space flier, one characterized by humility and perseverance. From the application process to launch aboard the space shuttle Atlantis, from serving as a family escort for the ill-fated Columbia crew in 2003 to his own daily struggles—family separation, competitive battles to win coveted flight assignments, the stress of a highly visible job, and the ever-present risk of having to make the ultimate sacrifice—Anderson shares the full range of his experiences. With a mix of levity and gravitas, Anderson gives an authentic view of the highs and the lows, the triumphs and the tragedies of life as a NASA astronaut.
