Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ian Mansfield was serving in the Australian Army when he was selected to command a team of Australian combat engineers to go to Pakistan to train Afghan refugees in mine-clearance procedures. With millions of refugees expected to return to Afghanistan, the United Nations saw a humanitarian crisis looming and requested help from Western countries to tackle the landmine problem. In September 1991, Ian, along with his wife and two young children, left Australia on a one-year assignment … and didn’t return home for 20 years. This highly personal account recalls Ian’s pioneering efforts to set up a civilian program in Afghanistan to clear landmines for humanitarian purposes, and then his decision to leave the Australian Army and join the United Nations. He continued to work in the mine-action sector, setting up programs in Laos and Bosnia, and then working at the policy level at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Stepping into a Minefield highlights the dangers and the tragedies involved in landmine clearance, but also reveals the great humanity, dedication and humour of the thousands of brave men and women clearing landmines today. It also outlines the political, cultural and security ‘minefields’ that Ian had to navigate along the way, which were often more difficult to deal with than the real minefields.

Download or read book In Service written by Tim Rees and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Service is the tale of one person's journey into manhood, ultimately finding himself in the theatre of war. It is a journey littered with colourful anecdotes and diverse experience: from military training in the Guards Depot to Trooping the Colour; from academic failure to intelligence work in Northern Ireland; from helping Rudolf Hess out of an ambulance to being tasked with taking the Queen's portrait. Tim Rees colours every experience with profound and often idiosyncratic observations that offer the reader a taste of the sometimes humorous, often arduous and, on too many occasions, brutal reality of service. But, as Tim says, 'The positive effect is the bond of common experience I share with men with whom I served in the army' - a type of bond that, in his opinion, is in danger of being lost in the modern age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yeshua (Jesus) placed the Key that unlocks the Chamber of Knowledge in the Underworld to be held until his return. For over two thousand years, the Key has remained hidden. Now the Key is missing, and the Underworld is in turmoil. The Key must be found to prevent a war that would destroy the earth. As three people supernaturally gain knowledge of an unusual symbol, they are drawn together. One quest, three people with three different agendas enter the underground caverns of Utah with plans to find and follow the symbol. The professor believes the symbol will lead him to the Fountain of Youth, and he is running out of time. The physician believes the symbol will lead to the cure for every disease, and she wants that cure. The reverend-turned-shaman has been appointed protector of the symbol by his Native American tribe, and he must protect it at all costs. Will the supernatural power hidden within the mysterious symbol be enough to protect them from the paranormal forces intent on destroying them? Before they can escape from the Underworld they must discover which key is hidden within a key. One key is for man to use. One key, if used incorrectly, can destroy the world. Which, if either, is the Key of David that they have found? And why is the mysterious changing symbol leading them deeper into the Underworld?
