Story
Firsthand accounts from Japanese WW II soldiers, sailors, and pilots who fought in the battle for Iwo Jima and survived. Some were evacuated before the Marines landed, and others were taken as prisoners of war. The Japanese army and navy combatants are given a voice to share their experiences in the battle that coined the phrase "uncommon valor was a common virtue".

Story
Are you looking for a complete guide on pandemic? Why was the Spanish Flu known as the Spanish Flu? What caused the Spanish Flu? Where did the Spanish Flu come from? The Spanish Flu did not originate in Spain, although news of it did. Scientists up to this day do not understand in which country did the Spanish Flu really originated, though theories factor to France, China, Britain, or the USA, where the first acknowledged case was found at Camp Funston in Riley, Kansas, on March 11, 1918.

Being a healthcare worker who's been in the fray of the current Pandemic. I've found that we've come a long way in terms of prevention of transmission. Yet, we still have lessons to learn from the Pandemic of 1918, as well as our current Pandemic.

Story
Eugene Bullard lived one of the most fascinating lives of the 20th century. The son of a former slave and an indigenous Creek woman, Bullard fled home at the age of 11 to escape the racial hostility of his Georgia community. When his journey led him to Europe, he garnered worldwide fame as a boxer, and later as the first African-American fighter pilot in history. After the war, Bullard returned to Paris a celebrated hero. But little did he know that the dramatic, globe-spanning arc of his life had just begun.

Found differences of opinion from three separate operators. Luttrell, O'Neal, and Brook's who were involved Lutttell's rescue, on how the rescue actually happened, from reading their individual books. They're all Heros!
