Selected documents from the Air American Archives. Occasional footnotes. This was produced with the Center for the Study of Intelligence and the National Museum of the United States Air Force. From WIkipedia: "Air America was an American passenger and cargo airline established in 1950 and covertly owned and operated by the Central Intelligence Agency's CIA Special Activities Division from 1950 to 1976. It supplied and supported United States covert operations in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War.In August 1950 the CIA secretly purchased the assets of Civil Air Transport CAT an airline that had been started in China in 1946 by Gen. Claire Lee Chennault of Flying Tigers fame and Whiting Willauer. 1 In 1951 the parent company of Air America's forerunner Civil Air Transport CAT was reorganized. The owner Chennault was approached by the CIA who bought out the company through a holding company the American Airdale Corporation. Under this agreement CAT was allowed to keep its initials and the company was reorganized as Civil Air Transport Inc. On 7 October 1957 American Airdale was reorganized to add another layer of obfuscation to its ownership. The new Pacific Corporation became a holding company for Air Asia Company Air Asia Taiwan Ltd; Air America Inc; Civil Air Transport Inc; Southern Air Transport; Intermountain Aviation; Bird and Sons known as BirdAir; and Robinson Brothers. CAT attempted to change its name to Air America at the same time but objections from Air France and American Airlines delayed the name change for two years. Air America's slogan was "Anything Anywhere Anytime Professionally". Air America aircraft including the de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou and Fairchild C-123 Provider flew many types of cargo to countries such as the Republic of Vietnam the Kingdom of Laos and Cambodia. It operated from bases in those countries and also from bases in Thailand and as far afield as Taiwan and Japan. It also on occasion flew top-secret missions into Burma and the People's Republic of China.

Marana Arizona was the principal continental United States maintenance base for Air America of which was located at Pinal Airpark. edit Operations during the Vietnam War Second Indochina WarFrom 1959 to 1962 the airline provided direct and indirect support to CIA Operations "Ambidextrous" "Hotfoot" and "White Star" which trained the regular Royal Laotian armed forces. After 1962 a similar operation known as Project 404 fielded numerous U.S. Army attachés ARMA and air attachés AIRA to the U.S. embassy in Vientiane. From 1962 to 1975 Air America inserted and extracted U.S. personnel provided logistical support to the Royal Lao Army Hmong army under command of Royal Lao Army Major General Vang Pao and combatant Thai "volunteer" forces transported refugees and flew photo reconnaissance missions that provided valuable intelligence on NLF activities. Its civilian-marked craft were frequently used under the control of the Seventh/Thirteenth Air Force to launch search and rescue missions for U.S. pilots downed throughout Southeast Asia. Air America pilots were the only known private U.S. corporate employees to operate non-Federal Aviation Administration-certified military aircraft in a combat role although many of them were actually military personnel who had been transferred to the airline. By the summer of 1970 the airline had some two dozen twin-engine transport aircraft another two dozen short-take off-and-landing aircraft and 30 helicopters dedicated to operations in Burma Cambodia Thailand and Laos. There were more than 300 pilots copilots flight mechanics and airfreight specialists based in Laos and Thailand. United States, Central Intelligence Agency paperback

201212907Librairie Droz. 2012. Softcover. Very Good. De l'œuvre de Lycophron l'un des sept poètes de la "Pléiade alexandrine" seul l'Alexandra poème tragique nous est parvenu intégralement. Conçu comme un discours énigmatique rapportant une prophétie de Cassandre le poème déroule un tissu d'énigmes qui au cours des siècles a fasciné des lecteurs comme Virgile Stace Eustathe cependant qu'il s'attirait la critique de certains autres comme Lucien de Samosate ou Clément d’Alexandrie. L'obscurité de ce discours prophétique tantôt glorifié tantôt honni a valu au poète le qualificatif de "Mallarmé de l'antiquité". Le présent volume offre au lecteur le résultat de plusieurs années de recherche et réunit un ensemble de réflexions menées sur l'oeuvre de Lycophron. Il donne ainsi des clefs pour la compréhension de ce texte complexe mais également pour en apprécier la poésie.; Recherches Et Rencontres Vol. 29; 170 pages . 2600015736 . Librairie Droz paperback

202037472University of Michigan Press. 2020. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine in Fine dust jacket. Lyric Poetry and Social Identity in Archaic Greece examines how Greek men presented themselves and their social groups to one another. The author examines identity rhetoric in sympotic lyric: how Greek poets constructed images of self for their groups focusing in turn on the construction of identity in martial-themed poetry the protection of group identities in the face of political exile and the negotiation between individual and group as seen in political lyric. By conducting a close reading of six poems and then a broad survey of martial lyric exile poetry political lyric and sympotic lyric as a whole Jessica Romney demonstrates that sympotic lyric focuses on the same basic behaviors and values to construct social identities regardless of the content or subgenre of the poems in question. The volume also argues that the performance of identity depends on the context as well as the material of performance. Furthermore the book demonstrates that sympotic lyric overwhelmingly prefers to use identity rhetoric that insists on the inherent sameness of group members.; 6 X 1 X 9 inches; 264 pages . 0472131850 .
