In this pictorial history of the troops that fought for the Union, John Langellier presents a key insight into how Abraham Lincoln's soldiers actually appeared in the field. Far from being uniformly clad in blue, the Union soldier appeared in a great variety of clothing, from simple civilian-style dress to elaborate uniforms inspired by European armies. This remarkable addition to the G.I. Series covers artillery, cavalry and infantry and demonstrates the full range of their uniforms, equipment, and armament. This latest addition to the series includes a superb selection of rare images, including over a dozen color images produced in the 1860s for the U.S. Army Quartermaster Department. Also includes the complete 1861 U.S. Army uniform regulations. 110 b/w and 18 color illustrations. |

Of all the seaplanes to serve with the RNAS, and latt erly RAF, in th e 1914-1918 war, the ungainly Short 184 unquestionably remains the best known. It was, to use that overworked aeronautical cliche, one of the conflict's great workhorses. Its less than aesthetic appearance matched the unremarkable nature of its war time career, yet it served in various forms from 1915 right up to the Armistice and beyond - indeed it remained in production until the end of 1918. There were some claims to fame. No.842 was the first ever aeroplane to torpedo an enemy vessel in action; another, 8359, was at Jutland and segments of it survive to this day at Yeovilton's famous Fleet Air Arm Museum, a somewhat forlorn memorial to a type that richly deserves it place in aviation history. |

Details all the different models, and comprehensively and beautifully illustrated throughout. |

The 1st Air Commandos were sired by General of the Army Henry H. "Hap" Arnold and brought to life by the imagination of two men, Lieutenant Colonel Philip G. Cochran and Lieutenant Colonel John R. Alison. In gathering men of character and tenacity, these two visionaries molded a unit which had to overcome orthodox military minds, paralyzing fear, and Burma's impregnable terrain before taking the fight to the Japanese. With a focus on the might and flexibility of air power, Cochran and Alison constructed an experimental unit which cut across the structured lines of conventional organizations. Forming an air arsenal which was totally unique in its composition and application, they combined the firepower of P-51A fighters and B-25H bombers with the logistical tentacles of C-47 transports, CG-4A gliders, L-5 and L-1 light planes, and UC-64 bush planes to reach far behind Japanese lines. The list of firsts is noteworthy - first airborne glider "snatch" in combat, first double tow of gliders into a combat arena, first helicopter operations, first helicopter combat rescue, first gunship employment, and first rockets fired against an enemy. Unorthodox and eclectic, the 1st Air Commandos serve as a model for conventional and special operations today. |
