“Honor Through Sacrafice”
by J.L. Doucette

“A man can fight if he can see daylight down the road somewhere,” said President Lyndon B. Johnson. “But there ain’t no daylight in Vietnam — there’s not a bit.” As he said that, he was committing the first U.S. ground combat units and initiating a massive bombing campaign in North Vietnam. Unaware of Johnson’s misgivings, Gordon Lippman dutifully entered Vietnam as an Infantry Division executive officer.

Lippman was the man soldiers wanted to follow, a stud from small-town America destined to become a leading member of “The Greatest Generation.”

This is a sweeping story on the broad landscape of twentieth-century compromise, accommodation and conflict, from the allied war in Europe to the forgotten victory in Korea to the televised dinnertime war in Vietnam. Purchase at https://amzn.to/3Gtv4BD.

“Leveling the Paying Field”
by Rick Gillis

For anyone who takes home a paycheck, is seeking a new job opportunity or carving out their own career path, here’s the opportunity to take pay parity into your own hands. Several books exist on the topic of fair pay, but none offers an individual approach to achieving fair pay such as “Leveling the Paying Field.”

Author Rick Gillis has created a rich new metric for measuring the value of the work you produce which he calls the QTNT® (pronounced: ‘quotient’). Your QTNT score can then be used to reasonably and realistically challenge your current rate of pay. Not only can equal pay for equal work ultimately be realized, but proper pay for outstanding performance becomes the new normal. Purchase at https://amzn.to/3All21g.
