Of the 16 million people who served in the Second World War, perhaps less than half a million are still alive (as of this writing). Regrettably, these veterans are currently dying at a rate of approximately 500 per day. Brookdale Creve Coeur is a local senior living facility in the suburbs of St. Louis that houses a number of these veterans. It also happens to be where the author's 85-year-old father recently moved. Places like Brookdale contain a treasure trove of remarkable and inspiring stories from World War Two.

It is the worst of times... December 1968. The buses pull out of the holding station every hour. They are headed for Travis Air force base just north of the city, filled with a seemingly endless supply of young men who are themselves filled with doubts and fears. Of course, the doubt and fear is not allowed out in the open. It is instead tucked neatly away in a very private place. A place it can hide and grow, like a virus, as the journey continues.

Il 24 febbraio 2022 Oksana Zabuzko, in Polonia per promuovere il suo nuovo libro, viene informata che Kyjiv, la sua città, è sotto attacco russo. Ma la messa a punto delle teorie russe per soggiogare i Paesi confinanti risale, ci ricorda lei, ai primi anni Settanta, con un piano in quattro fasi che prevedeva la demoralizzazione, la destabilizzazione, la crisi e la normalizzazione di un popolo. Di fronte alla resistenza e al senso di appartenenza ucraini, però, Putin non ha potuto far altro che ricorrere all'invasione armata.

Díaz. La otra historia nos narra en primera persona —quién mejor que uno mismo para confesar sus pecados y presumir sus victorias— la vida de Porfirio, el hijo de un cura franciscano que murió de cólera, el seminarista que colgó los hábitos para estudiar leyes, el joven incestuoso que amó profundamente a su sobrina, el masón de la logia Cristo Rey que fue escalando bajo la mirada escrutadora de Benito Juárez, el político agreste a quien su querida Carmelita convirtió en "don Porfirio", el gran militar y patriota que murió exiliado en París.

Frederick Rutland was an accomplished aviator, British WWI war hero, and real-life James Bond. He was the first pilot to take off and land a plane on a ship, a decorated warrior for his feats of bravery and rescue, was trusted by the admirals of the Royal Navy, had a succession of aeronautical inventions, and designed the first modern aircraft carrier. He was perhaps the most famous early twentieth-century naval aviator. Despite all of this, and due mostly to class politics, Rutland was not promoted in the new Royal Air Force in the wake of WWI.

Inside our military is a team of operators whose work is so secretive that the name of the unit itself is classified. Highly-trained in warfare, self-defense, infiltration, and deep surveillance, "the Unit," as the Department of Defense has asked us to refer to it, has been responsible for preventing dozens of terrorist attacks in the Western world. Never before has a member of this unit shared their story — until now.

"Weisst du was ich einfach so faszinierend daran finde, dass du bei der Bundeswehr gelandet bist? Wir waren irgendwann mal, als wir in der Schule waren, auf einer Jobmesse […] und da hast du dich für die Bundeswehr interessiert. Und ich meine, dass da nur Männer waren – so "White-CIS-Male", wie das halt so ist – und die haben darüber gelacht, dass du zur Bundeswehr möchtest. Und du warst so frustriert, meine ich in Erinnerung zu haben und letzten Endes bist du halt doch bei der Bundeswehr gelandet!" schreibt mir eine ehemalige Klassenkameradin vor einigen Wochen bei Instagram.

Immortalised in Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe novels, the 95th Rifles were skirmishers tasked with acting as Wellington's advanced guard. It was new technology for the warfare of the time: they travelled light, moved rapidly, armed with the accurate rifles that would allow them to take shots from distance. The 95th Rifles were the prototype of the modern infantryman.

With a ragtag militia, he struck like thunder, vanishing before the redcoats could strike back, his name a whispered legend of defiance.
