This is the true story of a man with high moral standards, legendary fitness, personal discipline, visual memory, excellent powers of observation and leadership qualities. Be inspired by the courage of this hard-working Southland farmer who led the First Commando Fiji Guerrillas in World War II. My parents were an exceptional couple. Their characters and influence in the local community, the farming world and in a much wider sphere were significant. My father's contribution to the war effort in the Solomon Islands, and the well-deserved Silver Star awarded to him by the Americans, is a unique story that you will not find in many of the war histories. My mother also made a huge impact in her community and was awarded a QSM for her work. DICK TRIPP The last chapter takes you into the heart of battles with the Japanese in the Solomon Islands in World War II. Charlie led his commandos; New Zealanders, Fijians and Tongans scouting in enemy territory to inform the Americans of their movements.

Download or read book Chronicles of the Armstrongs (Classic Reprint) written by James Lewis Armstrong and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chronicles of the Armstrongs In compiling this work the writer has had the advan tage of not only visiting the most prominent localities mentioned, but of having lived in them. The main chain of facts in the history is based upon chronicles and records of acknowledged validity, while other sources of information have been fitly used to supple ment and illustrate the narrative. I have endeavored to give the sources of information in almost every instance. It would have been impracticable and unnecessary to have given every record found pertaining to the Arm strongs; those presented are the most important ones, and sufficient to act as landmarks to the descent of this remarkable race. Of this I feel certain, that the early part of every Armstrong's lineage, if he comes rightly by the name, is in this book. The old spelling, occur ring occasionally, was used mostly to preserve the etymology and significance of names which in modern orthography would have become obscure; moreover.

Your dream may be different, but the road to resurrection will be similar. I highly recommend it." - Gary Chapman, author of The Five Love Languages
