An investigation into the whereabouts and purpose of a US Navy Small Coastal Transport during the Pacific War, and a discussion of supply and logistics during a time of conflict...This second edition contains revised text for clarity... Other than within these pages, and those of several books covering this specialized subject matter, plus some dedicated online sources containing not much more than the official data releases from the Department of the Navy, little information is available concerning the hazards faced by the men who went to sea in these tiny ships to supply those others entrenched on foreign beaches risking their all to preserve freedom at home...

Imagine your nation has suddenly been thrown into an unwanted war, and you are told that, as a reservist, you will join the brigade of your fellow citizen-soldiers/sailors who are already in place aboard giant steel behemoths, bristling with enormous guns, sailing in company with many other armed warships...Others are in speedy, but thin-skinned aircraft with little chance of returning alive from each harrowing mission...Still others climb inside armored, tracked monsters which clank inexorably toward a final clash with those who brought war and destruction to your friends and family...But docked among the enormous steel warships, all stretching nearly a thousand feet long, and taller than many of the buildings in your hometown, is a wooden ship, barely a hundred feet long, and covered with a material that not only wouldn't stop a .22 caliber bullet from the rifle with which you've hunted squirrels, it will even ignite when flame is applied...This is your home until peace is declared...

This novel, multidisciplinary handbook highlights recent evidence that antigen presenting cells (APCs) are not only key players in the initiation or prevention of an antigen-specific T lymphocyte-mediated adaptive immune response, but also critical regulators and integrators in the interplay between our innate and adaptive immune system. Structured in a clear way to allow access to a very broad readership, the book is written from the viewpoint of a biochemist, immunologist, and scientist with experience in drug development. It covers all cell types involved in antigen presentation, providing the latest immunological facts with a focus on drug development. Backed by a glossary explaining all important technical terms, this short but comprehensive reference covers basic introductory aspects right up to details for advanced specialists.
