Lisa Collier has always known the military was right for her, but she never counted on the trials and tribulations that accompany her new life. But under her uniform representing pride and heroism, she is conflicted. Unfortunately, Lisa soon realizes that her extensive military training has not prepared her for the battles of abandonment, neglect, infidelity, and abuse she suffers in her personal life. Lisas best friend, Monique Grant, is not known for playing games, especially when it comes to her freedom and her heart. She enters the military as a strong-willed woman who lets nothing stand in her way, but almost immediately discovers she must learn to slow down or lose everything she holds close to her heart. Memoirs of a Military Diva shares the poignant tale of two women as they journey to discover the true meaning of inner strength, to stand firm in their identities, and, most importantly, to embrace the bonds of sisterhood; relying on that, they have the ability to overcome anything.

I Love A Man In Uniform written by Lily Burana and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with Iraq War, 2003- categories.
Author Lily Burana writes about love, war, and the realities of military marriage with an honesty few writers would dare. A former exotic dancer who once had a penchant for anarchist politics and purple hair dye, Lily's rebellious past never would have suggested a marriage into the military. But then she met Mike, a Military Intelligence officer, and fell hopelessly in love, resulting in a most unorthodox romance--poignant, passionate, and utterly unpredictable. After Lily and Mike said "I do" in a brief City Hall ceremony, Mike left for Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Lily was left in a strange town to endure his absence alone. When Mike returned with a case of post traumatic stress disorder, Lily suffered from depression so severe it almost ended their marriage. Through it all, she wrangled with her preconceptions and found her place within the uniquely supportive sisterhood of military wives.--From publisher description.

How do you convince men to charge across heavily mined beaches into deadly machine-gun fire? Do you appeal to their bonds with their fellow soldiers, their patriotism, their desire to end tyranny and mass murder? Certainly—but if you’re the US Army in 1944, you also try another tack: you dangle the lure of beautiful French women, waiting just on the other side of the wire, ready to reward their liberators in oh so many ways. That’s not the picture of the Greatest Generation that we’ve been given, but it’s the one Mary Louise Roberts paints to devastating effect in What Soldiers Do. Drawing on an incredible range of sources, including news reports, propaganda and training materials, official planning documents, wartime diaries, and memoirs, Roberts tells the fascinating and troubling story of how the US military command systematically spread—and then exploited—the myth of French women as sexually experienced and available. The resulting chaos—ranging from flagrant public sex with prostitutes to outright rape and rampant venereal disease—horrified the war-weary and demoralized French population. The sexual predation, and the blithe response of the American military leadership, also caused serious friction between the two nations just as they were attempting to settle questions of long-term control over the liberated territories and the restoration of French sovereignty. While never denying the achievement of D-Day, or the bravery of the soldiers who took part, What Soldiers Do reminds us that history is always more useful—and more interesting—when it is most honest, and when it goes beyond the burnished beauty of nostalgia to grapple with the real lives and real mistakes of the people who lived it.

In 1998 Teresa Fazio signed up for the Marine Corps’ ROTC program to pay her way through MIT. After the United States was attacked on September 11, 2001, leading to the War on Terror, she graduated with a physics degree into a very different world, owing the Marines four years of active duty. At twenty-three years old and five foot one, Fazio was the youngest and smallest officer in her battalion; the combined effect of her short hair, glasses, and baggy camo was less Hurt Locker than Harry Potter Goes to War. She cut an incongruous figure commanding more experienced troops in an active war zone, where vulnerability was not only taboo but potentially lethal. In this coming-of-age story set in the early days of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Fazio struggles with her past, her sense of authority, and her womanhood. Anger stifles her fear and uncertainty. A forbidden affair placates her need for love and security. But emptiness, guilt, and nightmares plague Fazio through her deployment—and follow her back home.
