I might have mentioned before that my partner in crime and I take a Parkour class (getting from point A to point B without touching the ground) once a week. Well this gym decided to offer up a fitness class to help build up your strength so you can have an easier time with Parkour. It’s a new class, so I was the only one there last night. Did you know that there is more than one way to do a push-up? That means there is more than one way to torture me with push-ups. I know it was good for me, and I pushed myself harder than I ever have, but OUCH! We did a lot of other exercises that were…. I am stuck for words right now. I want to say torturous, painful, made me want to cry, but I think the word is beneficial. I learned a lot and the instructor was awesome. He wanted the class to be fun, so he kept each set short, so you never had enough time to hate the set, before you were moving onto the next thing. Strange how it was a lot of fun. This morning I hurt, and tomorrow will be worse. Oddly I can’t wait until the next class. Exercise is weird like that.

Vengeance; at Midway and Guadalcanal, a novel of war. (Aviator Book 2)

By Leland Shanle
4.1 Stars (111 Reviews)
Genre: History | Engineering & Transportation | War

FREE for a limited time

Action explodes from the pages of Novelist LC Shanle’s second book in the Aviator Series. World War II experienced from the cockpits of fighter aircraft, and through the eyes of men trapped in island Tropical Hells. Written by a retired Naval Aviator and former Paratrooper; the author puts the reader in the F-4F Wildcat and jungle, as warriors engage in a titanic struggle around the globe.
A diverse and rich cast of characters reveal the sacrifice and frustrations of war. A no holds bar accounting of the actual battles, shown through the eyes of the novels characters, uncovers mistakes and even incompetence at the highest levels. Vengeance shows the disastrous results of these decisions, on the lowest common denominator; the war fighter. Closely following the actual battles of Midway and Guadalcanal the reader gets an insider’s view so vivid the smell of cordite will hang in the air.
A rare perspective written by an author that flew modern fighters over the historic battlefields, even from the decks of aircraft carriers that fought in the Pacific. A riveting story, Vengeance tells of the impact at an individual level, a personal level; of an entire world at war. From the struggles of a young man in Officer Candidate School facing down a sadistic Drill Instructor; to entire fleets engaging in War At Sea.
Vengeance will pull back the curtain of historical perspective and frame it in reality. The harsh reality will come as a shock to readers who have read of great victories. But know little of the tremendous cost; like fifteen hundred sailors lost in a single nights battle, all five of the Sullivan brothers among them.
To the soldier, sailor or airman: war is about the small unit they are a part of and the struggle not only to stay alive, but protect their comrades. Sometimes, even to avenge their deaths.
