    SKIES OF THUNDER (PART ONE): THE DEADLY WWII MISSION OVER THE ROOF OF THE WORLD

    SKIES OF THUNDER (PART ONE): THE DEADLY WWII MISSION OVER THE ROOF OF THE WORLD

    In April of 1942, the Imperial Japanese Army steamrolled through Burma (present day Myanmar), capturing the only ground route from India to China, thereby cutting off the Allies ability to supply needed arms and supplies to the resistance in China.  Supplies would now have to be flown in from India to China across the treacherous Himilayas- the most hazardous air route in the world.  Skies of Thunder is the story of epic human endeavor, one in which Allied troops faced the monumental challenges of operationg  from airfields hacked from the jungle and taking on "the hump", the fearsome mo9untain barrier that defined the air route.  Author Carolie Alexander gives us a riveting account of what Allied heroes faced in the CBI (China-Burma-India) theater in WWII.

    THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT: A COLD WAR TRAGEDY? (PT 1)

    THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT: A COLD WAR TRAGEDY? (PT 1)

    Part one of THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT: A COLD WAR TRAGEDY deals with one of the greatest unsolved wilderness mysteries known- the mysterious and violent deaths of 9 members of a Russian ski group in the Ural Mountain wilderness in February of 1959. In part one provide the background and explore the characters of the young men and women who died outside their tent in various stages of dress- lacking enough clothing to protect them in sub zero weather- all because they were forced by what looks like great fear to leave their tent at night with no time for preparation. Autopsies showed that many bore defensive bruises, and some had multiple broken ribs, eyeballs and tongues missing, and crushed skulls. Many showed radiation burns. Theories range from a killer yeti to fireballs to Russian KGB to a nuclear weapon. We'll present our theory in part two.
