He was a twenty-year-old college student heading into the Marines, and he sought to better understand ethnic violence — something he knew he was likely to encounter in uniform. Barcott learned Swahili and listened to young people talk about how they survived amidst poverty he had never imagined. He also stumbled into friendship with a widowed nurse, Tabitha Atieno Festo, and a tough community organizer, Salim Mohamed.

From Iraq to Korea, the U.S. military makes daily headlines. The 2004 presidential candidates both spoke of a strong American military, but what did that actually mean? How would the shape of our Armed Forces be affected by the election? What contrasting visions were the presidential candidates presenting for the future of the United States men and women in uniform? John Callaway asked the presidential campaigns to weigh in on forward plans for the U.S. Military.

It is time for the Five Year Creator Reunion Picnic, where imaginary friends' creators come to Foster's to see their former friends. One friend's creator, however, is missing: Wilt's. Wilt, believing that his creator is still mad at him for a past let-down, sets off on a cross-country journey to set things straight. Meanwhile, Mac, Bloo, and Frankie, along with Eduardo and his creator Officer Nina Valerosa and Coco and the two scientists who discovered her, set out to find Wilt and bring him back home.

Saigon fell, South Vietnam collapsed, and American boots left the ground in 1975. But one survivor of that war has been involved in every American conflict since then, and still roams the battlefields of Afghanistan today: the Vietnam Syndrome.

Civil War hero General Ulysses S. Grant has been unfairly maligned because of the bloody 1864 campaigns he conducted against Robert E. Lee to secure final victory for the Union. A Victor, Not A Butcher takes you into those decisive campaigns to prove that far from being a crude butcher Grant’s casualty rates actually compared favorably with those of other Civil War generals. Grant was an inspired military leader with a genius for issuing lucid orders, maneuvering his troops adroitly, and making excellent use of his staff. His perseverance, decisiveness, moral courage, and political acumen place him among the greatest generals of the Civil War—indeed, of all military history.

Sebastian Junger spent several months embedded with the Second Platoon of the 173rd Airborne Brigade during their 2007-08 deployment to the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan. Command called the soldiers of Second Platoon “the best trained...and worst disciplined”; they could be found in battle wearing shorts and flip-flops, but they also endured sudden swings from stultifying boredom to mortal danger. In Junger’s description, they were the soldiers who existed “on the tip of the spear” – and in WAR, he attempts to evoke the unvarnished reality of their experiences on the ground in Afghanistan, as well as the challenges they faced in their returns to civilian life.

Can the intelligence and operational policies used in World War II and the Cold War inform our approach to challenges we face today or are these same policies clouding our ability to wage an effective war on terror? Did the success of technology in the Gulf War give us false confidence in our ability to create a democratic Iraq? John Callaway and his guests explored these and related issues.

Dolores allows Talia to use the spices in her food to make Aunt Tilly leave Miami without her and Julie. Talia and Tyson almost share their first kiss, but they are distracted by Dolores throwing water on them. Before the Golden Ladle cooking competition, Will comes to Frenchie and says, "Snap"; this word sends Frenchie to Lola's to steal the magic spices. Talia and Debbie compete in the Golden Ladle, which is hosted by Chef Lorena Garcia, against many chefs until they compete against each other the next day. Debbie, however, wins because Talia did not have the main ingredient for the dish. Despite this, Chef Lorena still tells Talia about her good cooking. Immediately after, the lights malfunction, and it is announced that a big hurricane is coming towards Miami. Everyone shelters in the community center, but soon, when Dolores quickly leaves, Talia goes to Lola's to fetch Julie's pet skunk Priscilla. Dolores returns and thinks Talia is lost. Tyson goes out to find Talia, but Debbie tries to get him to stop, and he won't, so she calls the name of Frenchie, who tackles Tyson and drags him away from the exit. Talia reaches Lola's, successfully gets Priscilla, and also gets the spices just in case, but she soon has an encounter with Will, who takes the spices from her. At the end of the season, Talia is trapped in Lola's by the hurricane.

At the time of this program, more than 8,000 U.S. military personnel had been injured in Iraq. While many received excellent medical care, others, particularly those in the Reserves and the National Guard, met unanticipated problems obtaining medical care, sorting through red tape, and getting the support they needed when they returned home. Despite wide publicity surrounding the issue, Congressional hearings, and improvement in some areas, the problems continue.

Since its birth in 1776, the United States has always been a maritime nation, which means that unobstructed access to and free use of the world’s oceans are essential to our national welfare and prosperity. That’s what the United States went to war in 1812 to defend, and that is what the United States Navy has been protecting ever since.

Operation Phantom Fury was a seven-week counter-insurgency campaign through the streets of Fallujah — an ancient city 40 miles west of Baghdad. The joint U.S., Iraqi, and British offensive is described as some of the heaviest urban combat since the 1968 Battle of Hue City in Vietnam. In New Dawn, Richard S. Lowry recounts the story of how coalition forces overcame the insurgent stronghold — drawing from the recollections of over 200 soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines.

During the four years General Creighton W. Abrams was commander in Vietnam, he and his staff made more than 455 tape recordings of briefings and meetings. In 1994, with government approval, Lewis Sorley began transcribing and analyzing the tapes. Sorley's laborious, time-consuming effort has produced a picture of the senior U.S. commander in Vietnam and his associates working to prosecute a complex and challenging military campaign in an equally complex and difficult political context.

Talia finds out that Jayden is a SpiceMaster, and he pretends he isn't, but later admits he is. At the school dance, Debbie performs badly and gets booed, so Talia, Valerie and Rudy help her. Afterwards, they try to prevent the guests from eating empanadas Jayden put his spices in, but some eat them and make mischief. Talia and Debbie go to Jayden and Micheal's food truck to make an antitdote, which they feed to the guests. Talia and Tyson have more special moments when they dance togther at the dance, then walk home togther; however, for the third time, Dolores throws water on them when they are about to share another kiss. Later, Julie blames Talia's absence as the cause for the investor threatening to pull out of Lola's.

With no carrots left, the only thing left to make for dinner is "It," a dish that Frankie has never been able to make. When Bloo learns what "It" is , he is determined not to eat it. Mr. Herriman meanwhile is punishing everyone who comes near his hidden carrots, and sending them to their rooms with no supper. Bloo decides to do all of the bad things he can think of to escape eating "It" by getting sent to his room, but Mr. Herriman is so busy punishing everyone else, that every time Bloo tries to get in trouble, Mr. Herriman overlooks him, blaming everybody but him, and chaos ensues.

Bloo tricks Mac into making crank calls to Mr. Herriman. Their joke is simply blowing raspberries into the phone, redialing again and again. Each time Herriman tries to get back at them by doing the same thing, it is not them redialing, it is Frankie asking about groceries in the mall. The last call Herriman gets was not from Mac and Bloo or Frankie; instead, it was from Madame Foster.

Quang X. Pham's A Sense of Duty, the first book written by a former Vietnamese refugee who became a U.S. Marine, is an affecting memoir about fate, hope, and the aftermath of the most divisive war America has fought. It is both a heartfelt salute to the spirit of America and a recounting of a son's reunion with his long absent father, himself a devoted officer who saw combat firsthand.

Foster's is finally able to get rid of Duchess when she is adopted. However, the family that adopted her turns out to be Mac's neighbors and her complaining gets to be too much for Mac's mother to handle.

They decide that they must bring her back to Foster's, but are prevented from doing so when Terrence warns of their arrival. In the end however, Terrence's plan fails when the Foster's residents learn about Mac moving and agree to take Duchess back.

Why did an average American woman become a WAC during World War II and place herself in peril? Authors Cyndee Schaffer and Mollie Weinstein Schaffer answer this question and more in the book, Mollie’s War, a story weaved around the collection of letters that Mollie wrote home to her family during WWII from her assignments in Europe along with historical commentary concurrent with the letters.
Americans often think of their nation's history as a movement toward ever-greater democracy, equality, and freedom. Wars in this story are understood both as necessary to defend those values and as exceptions to the rule of peaceful progress. In The Dominion of War, historians Fred Anderson and Andrew Cayton boldly reinterpret the development of the United States, arguing instead that war has played a leading role in shaping North America from the sixteenth century to the present.

If Not Now, When?
In Decisive Battles: From Yorktown to Operation Desert Storm, Jonathon Riley draws on his personal experience as a soldier and historian to explore the definitive battles of the modern era, including Waterloo in 1815 — which concluded more than twenty years of war with Revolutionary and Napoleonic France, and instituted alliances that dominated Europe until 1860 — and the Ardennes in 1944, when Hitler threw away his last army that could have stalled the Allied advance into Germany.
Until the bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941, the United States was reluctant to enter the fray of World War II, donating supplies and artillery to the Allied forces instead of sending troops. However, for five young men with privileged backgrounds and Ivy League educations, fighting fascism was so important they decided not to wait for U.S. involvement in the growing conflict. Chuck Bolte, Jack Brister, Bill Durkee, Heyward Cutting, and Robert Cox enlisted in the British Army, and, as a result, became the first Americans to fight against the Nazis.

The series begins with Talia cooking up a storm and listening to music. She gets a text from her grandmother, Dolores, who is excited that she and her younger sister Julie are going to be staying with her for a month. Eventually she gets interrupted by her Aunt Tilly, making a mess in the process. The next morning, she has to clean up the kitchen, when Julie comes in. They talk for a bit, the conversation revealing that both of their parents are dead. Later, Tilly drops the two off at Dolores', where Talia discovers that her family restaurant, Lola's, has been shut down. Dolores promises to explain everything later, and they go inside. Across the street are Debbie and her cousin Frenchie, who are worried that Talia will reopen Lola's as their family owns Fuccinelli's Restaurant. Once in their house, their neighbor Rudy Rosales introduces himself and proceeds to try to show off to Talia by carrying her bags. Dolores shows Talia and Julie their room and lets Rudy show Talia around. They try to break into Lola's, but it's blocked off, so Rudy goes to check out the back entrance. Valerie Landry goes up to Talia and hugs her, reminding her about how they used to play together when they were kids. Rudy takes them around back where Talia picks the lock and they go in. They reach the back room where Talia finds her dad's old spices hidden in the walls. She shoves them in her bag, but gets in trouble with Dolores as Valerie got her for "help" because she was scared. The next day, she blames Dolores for her breaking into the restaurant because she still hasn't told her what happened. Dolores gives her and Julie breakfast, where they have to act like it's edible. That day they go to the community center to sign up for classes. Rudy is there and is helping Talia when she sees Tyson Fuccinelli come in. Debbie arrives and is putting up a poster for a cooking class Frenchie is teaching, and Talia decides to sign up. When she approaches Debbie, she doesn't get a warm welcome. While signing up, Debbie bashes her and Dolores from a few feet away, which angers Talia so much she takes Rudy's drinks and dumps them on Debbie's head. Later, she and Rudy are waiting in her living room for Dolores to come home after her meeting about Talia. Surprisingly, she is not banned from the community center, but Dolores wants her to apologize. Talia uses her father's spices to make a treat and goes into the Fuccinelli's kitchen. She gets annoyed when Debbie insults her, so she puts her food down and leaves. Tyson goes after her. Frenchie and Debbie try out Talia's food, and unbeknownst to anyone, the spices cause them to like her for the time being and regret what they did to Lola's.

In his extraordinary book, Blood and Thunder: An Epic of the American West, Hampton Sides brings the conquest of the West to vivid life. At the center of the narrative stands the legendary Kit Carson - the trapper, scout, and soldier who embodied all of the contradictions and complexities of the American experience in the West. Brave and clever, beloved by his contemporaries, Carson was an illiterate mountain man who twice married Indian women, and understood and respected the tribes better than any other American alive - and yet was also a cold-blooded killer, who willingly followed orders tantamount to massacre.

Thirty years ago, Pulitzer Prize winning author and journalist Philip Caputo crossed the deserts of Sudan and Eritrea on foot and camel back, a journey that inspired his first novel, Horn of Africa, and awakened a lifelong fascination with Africa. His travels have since taken him back to Sudan, as well as to Kenya, Somalia, and Tanzania, and from those experiences he has fashioned Acts of Faith, his most ambitious novel. A stunning and timely epic, it tells the stories of pilots, aid workers, missionaries, and renegades struggling to relieve the misery wrought by the civil war in Sudan.

British subjects volunteered by the thousands to pick sides and take up arms in the American Civil War — some took up arms for the Union, and others for the Confederacy. Though missing from many portrayals of the war, the British played an important role in this key moment in American history.

"Every female you see at a piano is either Lynsey de Paul, or Carole King. And most male music—not all of it but the good stuff—really lays it on you. It really puts you against the wall and that's what I like to do. I'd like my music to intrude. Not many females succeed with that."

Has "the surge" brought progress, as claimed by the military? Can the Iraqi leadership stabilize the country?

The practice of "embedding" journalists in combat units provided a good deal of spectacular, timely footage, but tended to restrict insight to the frontline perspective of riflemen and vehicle crews. Murray and Scales provide a lucid and leavened look at the larger-scale forces shaping the war. Murray , currently a fellow at the Institute of Defense Analysis, is an eminent military historian, and Scales , a retired major general and former commandant of the Army War College, is a familiar commentator on security issues. In this operational history, they eschew discussion of such abstractions as whether the war was a "revolution in military affairs."
