Now with all new content by John Ringo! The aliens had arrived With gifts, warnings, and an offer we couldn't refuse.... Our choice was simple: we could be cannon fodder, or we could be ... fodder. We could send our forces to fight and die (as only humans can) against a ravening horde that was literally feeding on its interstellar conquests¾or remain as we were¾virtually weaponless and third in line for brunch. We chose to fight. Thanks to alien technology and sheer guts, the Terrans on two worlds fought the Posleen to a standstill. Thank God there was a moment to catch our breath, a moment, however brief, of peace¾. Now, for the survivors of the Barwhon and Diess Expeditionary Forces, it was a chance to get some distance from the blood and misery of battle against the Posleen centaurs. A blessed chance to forget the screams of the dying in purple swamps and massacres under searing alien suns. For Earth it was an opportunity to flesh out their force of raw recruits with combat-seasoned veterans. Political, military and scientific blundering had left the Terran forces in shambles-and with the Posleen Invasion only months away, these shell-shocked survivors might be the only people capable of saving the Earth from devastation. If the veterans had time to lick their wounds. Because the Posleen don't read schedules. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Strong wind changes and turbulence encountered by aircraft arriving or departing an airport constitute hazards to safe flight. Most serious encounters are thunderstorm outflow related. The gust front structure as observed by Doppler radar, standard weather radar, a 461 m meteorologically instrumented tower, aircraft and other observations is presented. Gust front evolution as observed with a severe thunderstorm is shown. Turbulence and multiple surges are discussed. (Author).
