Nalty, John F. Shiner, and George M. Watson. Page 215 Correct: Second Lieutenant Lloyd D. Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 218 Correct Lieutenant Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 357 Correct Hughes, Lloyd D., 215, 218 To: Hughes, Lloyd H., 215, 218 Foreword In the last decade of the twentieth century, the United States Air Force commemorates two significant benchmarks in its heritage. The first is the occasion for the publication of this book, a tribute to the men and women who served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War 11. The four years between 1991 and 1995 mark the fiftieth anniversary cycle of events in which the nation raised and trained an air armada and com- mitted it to operations on a scale unknown to that time. With Courage: U.S.Army Air Forces in World War ZZ retells the story of sacrifice, valor, and achievements in air campaigns against tough, determined adversaries. It describes the development of a uniquely American doctrine for the application of air power against an opponent's key industries and centers of national life, a doctrine whose legacy today is the Global Reach - Global Power strategic planning framework of the modern U.S. Air Force. The narrative integrates aspects of strategic intelligence, logistics, technology, and leadership to offer a full yet concise account of the contributions of American air power to victory in that war.

Some people are made to believe that this is another sign that the end of the world will come this year. December 21, 2012 is a date that is well known globally. Several hundred years ago, the Ancient Mayans predicted the apocalypse on this date. With their 5,125 year old calendar resetting itself to 0.0.0.0 on this date, many are preparing for the worst. However, the legitimacy of this Mayan prophesy is deemed questionable. Are we really in for our final destination? That is also the question that emerged from the Department of Health officials at the start of the New Year. On the first working day, three Department Personnel Orders (DPOs) were issued to everyone's surprise, including those affected.
