Best Regards To All..........Charles
Publisher = "thebookpatch.com",
click - "bookstore" click "Search"
Enter -"Those who served" or "Epic Sea Battles of WW2"
Then view details to see about the book.
Those who Served - an Educational and Historical look at Actors/Actresses, Sports figures, Politicians, Writers, Artist and Presidents who served in a military. From the start of the US up to and including Afghanistan.
When I could find them, included a picture of the person in a movie or TV series or a profile picture plus a picture of them in uniform and some with a military picture of a plane or ship or whatever.
Each Chapter is by the combat theater with the celebrities in Alphabetical order within the conflict they served in. The Celebrities start with WW1 and the Presidents start with the Revolutionary War.
Epic Sea Battles of WW2 - a historical look at the Allie and Axis Navies that fought in WW2. Includes a chapter of the Jutland sea battle between the German High Seas Fleet and the British Grand Seas Fleet. Includes a picture of ships from each Navy with lots of maps of actions. Includes references of Navy Terms, US Naval ship naming conventions, Ship loses by Country, Battleship to Battleship comparison, Proximity Fuses.
Each Chapter is by year with the battles (as they occurred) month by month.
