Delaware in World War I

By: Brigadier General Kennard R. Wiggins Jr. (DE ANG Retired)

Delaware's experience in the Great War was that of an awakening. What had been a pastoral collection of farms and merchants was rapidly transformed into a dynamic, economically thriving society. From the immense munitions contribution of the DuPont Company to burgeoning shipbuilding on the Wilmington waterfront, the First State took a leading role in meeting the war's industrial demand. It fortified coastal defenses and thwarted U-boat attacks on its coast. Its men and women learned of valor and sacrifice as thousands of native sons fought in Europe and daughters volunteered on the homefront. Author Kennard R. Wiggins Jr. traces the history that changed the state forever.

Flying Into Combat With Heroes

By: Stephen G. Warren

This is the compelling true story of Stephen G. Warren, as he rises from naval aviation cadet to Brigadier General in a distinguished 32-year career in the U.S. Marine Corps. Throughout World War II, the Korean conflict, Vietnam, and terrorism at UCLA, Warren faces the savagery of war with fortitude and courage. Warren flies combat missions with distinguished aviators Charles Lindbergh, Capt. Bill Freeman, and Major Joe Foss in the South Pacific, later joining the elite USMC Phantoms jet stunt team. But the opportunities of peacetime are soon abridged by the Korean conflict where he earns the Purple Heart, and later flies in MIG Alley. The saga continues as Warren commands the Red Devils squadron in Hawaii, and the NROTC at UCLA, where he is aided by then-Governor Ronald Reagan as provocateur-led student riots and explosive terrorism build to a crescendo; next come Washington, D.C., the Pentagon, and the Military Assistance Command Vietnam (MACV). This is the account of an authentic American hero.
