Desert Storm
October 13, 2007 (San Dimas, CA) Military-Writers.com is a
website committed to listing servicemembers who have authored books. The website
added three servicemembers who have written books and who service includes World
War II, the
Korean War and Operation Desert Storm.
A.L. Ward is a highly acclaimed experienced
Hypnotist, Healer and Instructor with a 51-year track record. His contribution
to a massive research project proved that hypnosis corrected 'non-medically
responsive' health problems and that a universally consistent pattern of
negative emotions caused the physical deficiencies.
A. L. Ward was born in Tarkio, Missouri and
educated in schools in California. He served with the
Navy on the aircraft carrier Intrepid from
1943-1945. He joined the
San Bernardino Police Department in 1955 and
retired in 1980.
He is the author of two books:
The Inner Mind Revisited and Heaven: The Road Back Home. According
to The Inner Mind Revisited, it is a unique book whose direct
approach brings thought provoking testimony to the growing evidence that the
mind of man is capable of penetrating into the world beyond. It is a significant
contribution to the better understanding of hypnosis and the Soul of man. The
author prods the mind of the reader into a new spiritual awareness and the
certainty that a pattern and purpose in life lies within the inner mind of every
individual. The book also lists over forty different medical problems, some
determined incurable by the medical profession, which were resolved in his
one-hour hypnotic process.
Charles "Chuck" Sennewald, upon graduation from
the
United States Air Force basic training program
at Lackland AFB in 1949, entered and graduated from the
United States Army's Military Police School at
Camp Gordon (Georgia). Shortly thereafter he was transferred to the 6205th Air
Police Group at Clark AFB in the Philippine Islands, then the largest Air Police
contingent in the world on the largest air base in the world. He served in the
prestigious Town Patrol detail in Angeles, Pampanga. He volunteered for Korean
service after the outbreak of that war and was eventually transferred to the
18th Air Police Squadron with the 18th Fighter Bomber Wing at K-10 Korea, the
famous "Dogpatch" for Mustang F-51's. At that location he became the Prison
Sergeant in charge of the base stockade.
After discharge from the
Air Force Chuck, entered San Jose State
University, majoring in Police Science. He eventually graduated with a BS in
Police Science and Administration from California State University, Los Angeles,
where he subsequently taught as a part time lecturer for 13 years, in Security
Management. While attending school he joined the Los Angeles County Sheriff's
Department, and after a year in corrections and a short stint in patrol at
Malibu was transferred to the Vice Detail where he worked undercover for over 4
years. He was then transferred to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's
Bureau of Investigation and after a short tenure there was recruited by the
Claremont Colleges as their Chief of Campus Police.
His latest book, Retail Crime, Security and Loss
Prevention: An Encyclopedic Reference, co-authored with
John Christman, for VP and Director of Security for Macy's West will be released
in February, 2008. In addition to the book being
released in February 2008,
Charles Sennewald is the author of six books:
Effective Security Management; The Process of Investigation; Security
Consulting; Shoplifters vs. Retailers: The Rights of Both; Shoplifting: Managing
the Problem; and, The Last Volkswagen.
According to the book description
of The Process of Investigation, it is a book written to address
the needs of the private investigator in the security field. Continuing in the
tradition of its previous editions, this book covers essential topics which are
often overlooked in works that concentrate on the public aspects of
investigation. Investigative skills such as surveillance techniques,
interviewing and interrogation, evidence, and confessions and written statements
are all discussed, and supplemented with updated case studies and examples from
the authors own experiences.
Even at an early age,
D. Clayton Meadows planned a life under the
sea. He saved allowances and did jobs around local farms to earn money for books
about submarines. After high school
D. Clayton Meadows enlisted in the
United States Navy. After graduating Submarine
School, D. Clayton Meadows was assigned to USS RAY SSN 653.
D. Clayton Meadows completed the rigorous
submarine qualification process in half the normal time. It was on USS RAY that
D.
Clayton Meadows participated in the first ever
surfacing of three United States nuclear submarines at the North Pole.
D. Clayton Meadows began writing articles for
various magazines dealing with model submarines, and naval history. By now his
writing and models were winning awards and in demand. His models grace the desks
of government leaders, celebrities, and collectors. In September of 1995
D. Clayton Meadows was advanced to the
prestigious rank of Chief Petty Officer. A year later he was at sea again, this
time as Torpedo Division leading Chief on the Improved Los Angeles Class USS
SPRINGFIELD SSN 761. He deployed three times while on SPRINGFIELD. While on
board he began his first novel, Of Ice and Steel. He only worked
on the manuscript while the ship was submerged
According to William McDonald of The American Author
Association, There are very few books that you read and tell yourself that this
would make for a great action movie. However, in "Of Ice And Steel"
author
D. Clayton Meadows makes you see and actually
feel those visual mental pictures unfolding in your mind as you read his book.
He is truly a gifted writer. He displays his creative writing style with the
greatest of skill as he treats us to an unbelievable tale that he makes you
accept as possible. This book has a little of everything that a good submarine
story should have including a cast of well-defined characters and a great
dialog. The real twist to this war adventure is that it crosses over into
science fiction. You will not read another story like this one ever! The action
and the pace of the book move the plot right along. It is a spellbinding
thriller that you will not be able to out down until you find out what happens.
