Citizens as Soldiers
Unlike most histories of the National Guard, Jerry Cooper?s Citizens as Soldiers: A History of the North Dakota National Guard examines the Guard not merely in its wartime context or in terms of military actions in which it has engaged but also as an integral element in the growth and development of community in the American West. From the Guard's early incarnations as social clubs or lodges, where members dressed in uniform, paraded, and held dances, through its gritty service in the Philippines and beyond, Cooper shows how membership in the Guard and later in the Air National Guard helped forge bonds of local, regional, and national identity.
Ennuey
Ennuey by Raymond H. Osbrink Something is rotten in the city of St. Petersburg. When Harvard professor Dr. Ernest Ennuey arrives in Russia for an international Entomology Conference, he and the beautiful Dr. Yawn Yarkowsky find themselves embroiled in an Agatha Christie murder mystery involving poisonous spiders, an unscrupulous munitions company, Ukrainian separatists, and a gang of Igors.

Rotors
They were college kids and young soldiers who wanted to fly, and they knew little about Vietnam other than what they read in the newspapers before going there. But Ia Drang, Kontum, Bong Son, Pleiku, Dak To, and dozens of other places soon became their trials by fire as they flew the grunts into and out of hot LZs and exposed themselves to some of the most intense combat of the war. Their mission was to fly into isolated jungle hilltops and muddy rice fields often without knowing what they'd face. Consequently, the crewmen who flew the helicopters and manned the door guns suffered some of the highest percentages of dead and wounded in the history of American warfare.
