THE EXPEDITION True Story of the First Human-Powered Circumnavigation of the Earth FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – April 3, 2012 He survived a terrifying crocodile attack off Australia’s Queensland coast, blood poisoning in the middle of the Pacific, malaria in Indonesia and China, and acute mountain sickness in the Himalayas. He was hit by a car and left for dead with two broken legs in Colorado, and incarcerated for espionage on the Sudan-Egypt border… “A journey of great courage and determination…” —His Holiness The Dalai Lama “It’s a 21st Century Odyssey full of grit, terrifying escapes told with wonderful humor at a breakneck pace. An unputdownable page turner.” —Sir Chris Bonington, mountaineering legend “Skating through Alabama with long hair, duct tape on the nipples, and women’s culottes… I can’t even imagine it.” —Jay Leno, The Tonight Show “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance meets Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods...” —Charley Boorman, Long Way Down “An epic journey that few can rival in terms of endurance and overcoming obstacles.” —Bear Grylls, Man vs. Wild THE EXPEDITION True Story of the First Human-Powered Circumnavigation of the Earth By Jason Lewis After rejecting a six-figure advance from publishing giant HarperCollins, British-born explorer and environmentalist Jason Lewis turned to a Colorado-based independent, BillyFish Books, to ensure a sincere portrayal of his 13-year circumnavigation of the globe by human power—an historic first. Available in the U.S. August 1, 2012, The Expedition chronicles in three parts Lewis’ 46,505-mile journey across five continents, two oceans, and one sea using only the power of his body: walking, cycling, and inline skating the landmasses, and kayaking, rowing, swimming, and pedaling a boat across the oceans—no assistance from motors or the wind. Lewis set four world records along the way, and clinched what the London Sunday Times hailed as “The last great first for circumnavigation.” BILLYFISH BOOKS LLC | T: 1 888 750 7887 | E: [email protected] | WWW.BILLYFISHBOOKS.COM Additional objectives of the expedition were to promote low/zero carbon emission travel, raise awareness of man-induced climate change, and the impact of lifestyle choices on the health of the planet. Lewis gave hundreds of talks to children in 37 countries, and raised $66,500 for humanitarian causes such as The Hope Orphanage in East Timor, Rumah Solehah in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Father Joe’s Mercy Centre in Bangkok, Thailand. Notable past circumnavigation firsts include: sixteenth century Portuguese maritime explorer Ferdinand Magellan, who circled the world by sail in 1522; Wiley Post, the first pilot to fly solo around the world in 1933; and Steve Fossett, who flew around the world in a hot air balloon in 2002.

The school’s previous location in the nearby village of Alanyi had been attacked by the LRA in late 2002, resulting in the killing, abduction, and displacement of many innocent civilians. v17/n1 | 22 Abstract: Shaped by the horrors of the 1980s Ugandan Bush War, young Joseph Kony declared himself a prophet and deliverer of the Acholi people. Instead, his Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) brutalized tens of thousands of African civilians. Heightened sensitivities to LRA atrocities led the U.S. to deploy Special Forces advisors in 2011. However, marksmanship and small unit training alone would not be enough to defeat Kony; more creative solutions were needed. n Operation OBSERVANT COMPASS, U.S. Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF) partnered with non-governmental organizations (NGOs), UN Ipeacekeepers, and African military forces to end the violent threat of Joseph Kony’s Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) in central Africa. Key to mission success were Joseph Kony, U.S. Army psychological operations (PSYOP) efforts an ethnic encouraging LRA members to defect. This campaign Acholi, founded helped reduce the LRA from several hundred fighters the LRA in 1987 when the operation started in October 2011, to and controlled it through less than one hundred when U.S. Africa Command fear and (USAFRICOM) ended it in April 2017. An operational superstition. success, OBSERVANT COMPASS showcased the unique capabilities of the PSYOP Regiment. This preface explains the emergence of Kony and the LRA, providing historical context for the next article about the PSYOP role in OBSERVANT COMPASS.
