His marriage is in trouble and his business has failed, but David Collins is determined to investigate a decades old family tragedy and to bring closure to a huge void in his life. For years he has wondered what caused his twelve year old brother to leave his wartime billet on a cold December night and disappear from an isolated beach. He is increasingly obsessed with examining the role played by the people his brother was billeted with, and with determining the involvement of the officials who were charged with his safe keeping. Along with a skeptical cousin and the cousin's keenly interested wife, David travels to England to peel back years of family history and official deceptions. Bravo's Veil is the story of their investigation. It's also the story of his brother Paul's time in pre-war London and the months leading up to his disappearance in Cornwall. The activities of a beautiful billeting official come into focus. Her affair with a young police constable and her deep involvement in a local MI-5 operation are revealed, and so are requests for Paul to run some strange errands. The final clues regarding Paul's fate are found in an envelope containing his childhood keepsakes. The emotional investigation serves up many surprises. But one extraordinary and very disturbing secret shocks David to his core and changes his life forever.
A rare behind-the-scenes look at John Wayne: the legend, hero, and Hollywood icon of numerous epic Western films, including an Academy Award-winning performance in True Grit. No legend ever walked taller than “The Duke.” Now, author Michael Munn’s startling new biography of John Wayne sets the record straight on why Wayne didn’t serve in World War II, on director John Ford’s contribution to Wayne’s career, and the mega-star’s highs and lows: three failed marriages, and two desperate battles with cancer. Munn also discloses publicly, for the first time, Soviet dictator Josef Stalin’s plot to assassinate Wayne because of his outspoken, potentially influential anti-Communist views. Drawing on time spent with Wayne on the set of Brannigan—and almost 100 interviews with those who knew him—Munn’s rare, behind-the-scenes look proves this “absolute all-time movie star” was as much a hero in real life as he ever was on-screen.
Utah coal production in 2006 increased for the second straight year to 26.1 million short tons, 6.4% higher than 2005’s production total and 20% higher than the 10-year low experienced in 2004. This year’s increase was the result of renewed longwall mining at the Skyline mine and significant production increases at Aberdeen,West Ridge, and SUFCO. In addition, Utah achieved record production in the Book Cliffs coal field, record production in Carbon County, and record production on State lands. In fact, in 2007, coal production on State lands is expected to out-pace federal coal production for the first time in history. Despite this recent surge in production, many coal mine operators are experiencing increasingly difficult mining conditions, resulting in a higher ash product.

Among the US Special Forces most valued troops are the Air Force's Pararescue Teams. Known as PJ's, they go places no one else can reach. They climb mountains, penetrate jungles, and descend into freezing waters to retrieve the wounded, the dying...and the secrets their government will kill to uncover. Master Sergeant Jason Johnson is one of the best pararescue jumpers around, a man intimately familiar with massive scenes of destruction - from earthquake-ravaged city in the Philippines to Operation Desert Storm. Outfitted with the military's most sophisticated equipment, Johnson is about to embark on a mission unlike any other. He is about to meet the Brotherhood of Death - a handful of warriors trained to act as a precise airborne hit squad.
