Jump Commander (v. 1.0.0.2)

Col. Mark James Alexander was the only airborne officer to lead three different battalions into combat in World War II, successively commanding the 2d and 1st Battalions, 505 Parachute Infantry Regiment, and the 2nd Battalion, 508 PIR, of the 82nd Airborne Division. A legend in his own time, he fought in North Africa, Sicily, Italy, and France, and even after being seriously wounded in Normandy, insisted on playing a role in the Battle of the Bulge.

Airborne Generals Gavin and Ridgway recognized Alexander’s superior battle skills and were more than happy to use him to plug holes in the ranks. His reputation excelled among the rank and file, right down to the lowest private. He led from the front, pressing the attack while simultaneously looking out for his men. In Sicily, Alexander’s battalion landed 25 miles from its drop zone, into a network of Italian pillboxes, upon which the Colonel personally directed fire, thence captured hundreds of prisoners. Dropped into the desperate inferno at Salerno, he refused to give ground against German counterattacks, forming his paratroopers against enemy efforts to push Allied forces back into the sea. At Normandy one seasoned lieutenant, John “Red Dog” Dolan, 505 PIR, called him “the finest battalion commander I ever served under,” after Alexander had led the 1/505 for ten days through the bloody battle for La Fière Bridge and Causeway.

Alexander’s passion and truest talent was leading men in the field, and he insisted on sharing their risks. On one occasion in Normandy he and his runner (he went through several) were caught behind German lines and encountered a platoon of SS. Opening fire, the Colonel killed or wounded several and brought the rest in as prisoners. An 88mm shell finally got the best of him, shrapnel tearing through his lungs, and while the 82nd was engaged in the Bulge, Alexander was only allowed to run its base camps in France— despite his protests—as General Gavin noted that he was still coughing up blood.

This memoir is based on the transcription of hundreds of hours of recorded interviews made by Alexander’s grandson, John Sparry, over a period of years late in his life. Providing valuable insight into the beloved commander who led three of the most storied battalions in the US Army, Jump Commander also contains a wealth of new detail on 82nd Airborne operations, and casts insight on some of the most crucial battles in the ETO. This highly readable and action-packed narrative may well be the last remaining memoir to be written in the voice of a major airborne officer of the Greatest Generation.

D-Days in the Pacific (v. 1.0.10)

Winner of the Foundation for 2008 Coast Guard History Book Award from Casemate Publishing

The images of soldiers and marines coming ashore on hostile shores are embedded in our collective memory of World War II. But what of the sailors who manned the landing craft, going back and forth under fire with nowhere to take cover, their craft the special targets of enemy gunners?

In this book, Ken Wiley, a Coast Guardsman on an Attack Transport in the Pacific, relates the intricate, often nerve wracking story of how the United States projected its power across 6,000 miles in the teeth of fanatical Japanese resistance. Each invasion was a swirl of moving parts, from frogmen to fire support, transport mother ships to Attack Transports, the smaller Higgins boats (LCVPs), and during the last terrifying stage the courageous men who would storm the beaches.

The author participated in the campaigns for the Marshall Islands, the Marianas the Philippines and Okinawa, and with a precise eye for detail relates numerous aspects of landing craft operations, such as ferrying wounded, that are often discounted. He conveys the terror and horrors of war, as well as, on occasion, the thrill, while not neglecting the humor and cameraderie of wartime life.

An exciting book, full of harrowing combat action, D Days in the Pacific also provides a valuable service in expanding our knowledge of exactly how World War II’s massive amphibious operations were undertaken.

■「超辞典」の特徴

冊子であれ電子辞典であれ、見出し語で辞書を引くことが「常識」です。たとえば、"move forward"という語の意味を知るには、moveを引いて、辞書を読む必要があります。“move forward"は１０項もの他動詞の意味の次、自動詞の１番目に記述があります。冊子の辞書ならここまで読まなければ、意味を知ることができません。電子辞典の場合-
は、moveの本文を検索すればいいのでしょうが「moveを引いて、さらに本文でforwardを検索する」という手順を踏まなければなりません。

もっと効率的に、初心者でも簡単に辞書が引けないものでしょうか？この問題を解決したのが特許申請中の「超検索」機能です。

超辞典の「超検索」は辞書全体からデータを検索します。"move forward"と入力すれば、それぞれの単語だけでなく、例文や訳文から複数の語が一致する箇所まで検索し、一覧表示します。本文をじっくり読まなくてもそれぞれの-

にない強力な電子辞典です。すべての辞典において超検索機能が利用できます。

履歴やお気に入り機能も搭載。ランダムに辞書の内容を閲覧する機能も持っています。

■注意点

・初回起動時に辞書のダウンロードを行います。５分～１０分ほどお待ちください。
・同じ言語のアプリケーションがある場合、どのアプリケーションでも検索を行う事が可能です。
・機種によって正常に表示できない文字があります。

・辞書のダウンロードが上手くいかない場合はSDカードの「RSBrowser」フォルダを削除後、起動中のアプリを停止して、再度辞書のダウンロードをお願いします。
