Описание: This memoir follows a young man from his teenage years as a bloodhound trainer, farmworker, and student in and out of colleges and marriages to the battlefields of Vietnam. His mission is: "to keep Americans alive." Often irreverent, this book examines leadership in combat situations and the gut-wrenching decisions that must be made. Aeronautics, physiology of a crash, PTSD, and detailed accounts of actual battles are reported and examined from a "been there done that" perspective. The book takes you on a roller coaster ride of successes and failures, as Bond evolves from an idealistic teenager to becomes one of the more decorated combat veterans in our Nations history. Beginning with some of the history which accompanied him into combat, he weaves a tale of contrasts. Confronted with age-old questions of what is worth living for or dying for, he leads us through the decisions he faced and resolved for better or worse.

Описание: One Foot In, One Foot Out is a testament to the ongoing struggles that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender U.S. military service members continue to face while serving in todays modern military. Many service members who identify as LGBT are still discriminated against and or harassed because they are out of the closet, are suspected of being gay or are involved with someone of the same sex. Dr. Nikolov shares his experience with the Dont Ask, Dont Tell policy and the implications it had on the more than the 16,000 service members who were removed from the service solely because they were gay and makes recommendations to those contemplating coming out or who have one foot in and one foot out of the closet. He also provides advice to military leaders who seek to improve their command climate to be more inclusive and diverse and welcomes those without regard to their sexual orientation.
