Every Other Four
Every Other Four is a firsthand account into the life of Cpl Wojtecki, A Marine Infantryman in Weapons Company 3/25 based out of Akron, OH. The day-by-day journal of the Marine describes what it felt like to be in some of the most hostile areas in the Al-An bar province and gives you the real story of what went on during those 10 months of training and combat. The 23-year-old college student describes life in a war-zone, constantly keeping watch on the roadways as a member of a Mobile Assault Platoon. Cpl. Wojtecki’s platoon fought an ongoing battle against insurgents such as Zarkowi and the Mouja-Haadine terrorist group that planted IED’s and mines on roadways, making it a difficult fight by blending into the local population and then fleeing to lawless river towns. This journal is dedicated to the 48 Marines and Sailors that died serving our country from 3/25. “Hopefully” he says, “the words in this journal will live forever and carry on their legacy.”
Mediating Emergencies and Conflicts
Contributors to this volume discuss different types of emergencies and conflicts and how challenging these multilingual operational environments are for linguists. The growth in reach and number of international relief operations has exposed the limits of current research into these challenges.

Contributions in this volume undeniably demonstrate the need for multidisciplinary studies in mediating multilingual ...

Intelligence-Led Policing
What is intelligence-led policing? Who came up with the idea? Where did it come from? How does it relate to other policing paradigms? What distinguishes an intelligence-led approach to crime reduction? How is it designed to have an impact on crime? Does it prevent crime? What is crime disruption? Is intelligence-led policing just for the police? These are questions asked by many police professionals, including senior officers, analysts and operational staff. Similar questions are also posed by students of policing who have witnessed the rapid emergence of intelligence-led policing from its British origins to a worldwide movement. These questions are also relevant to crime prevention practiti...

Military Readiness
Throughout most of American history, U.S. military forces proved unready for the wars that were thrust upon them and suffered costly reverses in early battles. During the Cold War, for the first time, U.S. defense policy tried to maintain high readiness in peacetime. But now, with the Cold War over and defense budgets falling, what will happen to U.S. military forces? Will they revert to a state of unpreparedness or find a new balance? Politicians and military planners alike have found this crucial issue especially difficult to deal with because they have often misunderstood what readiness really means. In this book, security expert Richard Betts surveys problems in developing and measuring ...
Bounty Hunter 4/3
The “fascinating” memoir of Jason Delgado, a US Marine scout sniper and MARSOC’s first lead sniper instructor (Brandon Webb, New York Times–bestselling author of The Killing School).
