After Christmas Special

How was your Christmas? Here at the OCCUPIED BERLIN headquarters it was a fantastic time.

However, I did manage to get some work done and did a little fine tuning to the manuscript just before the paperback version gets released. That means that there is another update to the Kindle version of DOUGHBOY CITY. Please make certain you have the latest version.

As always if you find that you are having issues getting the latest update please drop me an email and I will help you get that update on your Kindle Device or App.


FYI: The paperback version of DOUGHBOY CITY is scheduled for release January 7, 2014. The initial release plan is first distribution through Amazon.com then as the rest of the major online booksellers start to add it to their catalog you will be able to find it there. The price of the book is set at $8.49 plus shipping and taxes (if applicable).

However, starting on Monday, December 30, I will be offering signed copies of the book at a discounted price. Be on the look out for that very soon.

Thank you,
David

Happy Saint Lucia's Day! (13 December 2013)

Did you know that today, 13 December 2013 is Saint Lucia's Day?

According to Wikipedia Saint Lucia's Day is "the church feast day dedicated to Lucia of Syracuse (d.304), also known as Saint Lucy, and is observed on 13 December. St. Lucia’s Day is celebrated most commonly in Italy and in Scandinavia, with each emphasizing a different aspect of the story. It is one of the very few saint days observed in Scandinavia. In traditional celebrations, Saint Lucy comes as a young woman with lights and sweets. In some forms, a procession is headed by one girl wearing a crown of candles (or lights), while others in the procession hold only a single candle each."

The origins of Saint Lucia
"Saint Lucia is one of the few saints celebrated by the overwhelmingly Lutheran Nordic people — Danes; Swedes; Finns and Norwegians. The St. Lucy's Day celebrations retain many indigenous Germanic pagan, pre-Christian midwinter elements. Some of the practices associated with the day predate the adoption of Christianity in Scandinavia, and like much of Scandinavian folklore and even religiosity, is centered on the annual struggle between light and darkness.

The Nordic observation of St. Lucy is first attested in the Middle Ages, and continued after the Protestant Reformation in the 1520s and 1530s, although the modern celebration is only about 200 years old. It is likely that tradition owes its popularity in the Nordic countries to the extreme change in daylight hours between the seasons in this region.

The pre-Christian holiday of Yule, or jól, was the most important holiday in Scandinavia and Northern Europe. Originally the observance of the winter solstice, and the rebirth of the sun, it brought about many practices that remain in the Advent and Christmas celebrations today. The Yule season was a time for feasting, drinking, gift-giving, and gatherings, but also the season of awareness and fear of the forces of the dark."

Speaking of gift-giving keep your eye on your email for a message from Amazon.com

'Tis the Season!

Saint Nicholas Day (6.December)

Greetings,

We are already into the last month of 2013. Can you believe that? What are your plans for 2014? Personally, I am going to do something out of the ordinary everyday. Also, I am setting a goal of publishing two more OCCUPIED BERLIN books by the end of 2014.

You already know the subject: the Berlin Airlift. I really believe that the subject that I am going to cover is not what you think it is. I can tell you it involves Berlin, airplanes, and those pesky Russkies.

Seriously, I do hope you like it. In the meantime, we have to get past DOUGHBOY CITY. Right now I am still on track for the late January 2014 final update.

Thus I am writing to let you know that I am thinking of you and I appreciate you very much.

Thank you,
David.

1 week till next update

Dear Reader,
Just a quick reminder that we are one week away from the next update to DOUGHBOY CITY.

The process will be the same. Sometime throughout the day on Saturday November 23, 2013 you will receive an email from AMAZON.com notifying that an update to DOUGHBOY CITY has been made and it will also include instructions to update your Kindle copy of DOUGHBOY CITY.

Next week's update will include eight new chapters (5 - 12). The story shifts into the next gear. Things start pickup and now the fun really begins.

There is no cost for the update.

However, if this is the first time you are reading this blog and you have not ordered and downloaded your copy of DOUGHBOY CITY then by all means please head on over to AMAZON.com and get your copy for only $0.99.

This will not be the last update. I will conclude the book just after the start of the new year.

I anticipate having a print copy of the book available sometime around St. Valentine's Day 2014. So be on the look out for that. Unfortunately, the print version will not be sold at the same price as the Kindle version of DOUGHBOY CITY.

Thank you for your time and support,
David

Doughboy City (mini update)

This weekend I was working on the latest update to Doughboy City. Here is a little something-something just for you:

"When the evening comes to Doughboy City, quickly, fire barrels are lit. The fire barrels are actually 55-gallon drums with the top removed and a fire on the inside. The heat that barrel gives off is fantastic and when your fellow soldiers gather around it, well, those are some of the best times. Many years from now, I will remember and know that nothing would compare to those simple times. When all the action for the day has ceased and it was just soldiers and no outside influence, just Infantrymen. They could be themselves; they could let their guard down, just shoot “the shit” or vent about the bad and celebrate the good as we gathered around a single 55-gallon drum with a roaring fire on the inside. There would never be another time like that. For now, I was dealing with the passing of a friend and I was starting to think it was not an accident."
-----

W ciągu ostatnich dwóch dnia pracował na najnowszej aktualizacji do "Doughboy City " i tutaj jesttrochę coś - coś dla Ciebie :

"Kiedynadchodzi wieczór do Doughboy City, szybko , beczki przeciwpożarowe są oświetlone . Beczki pożarowe są faktycznie 209 litrów metalowy pojemnik z usuniętym góry i pożaru w środku.Ciepła , że baryłka wydziela jest fantastyczna i kiedy koledzy żołnierze zbierają wokół niego , dobrze, są to jedne z najlepszych czasów. Wiele lat od teraz , będę pamiętać i wiedzieć, że nic nie porównać do tych prostych czasów. Kiedy wszystkiedziałania na dzień przestał i to właśnie żołnierze i wpływy z zewnątrz nie., zaledwie Infantrymen mogą być same , mogą pozwolić ich czujność , po prostu strzelać " gówno " lub otworów wentylacyjnych ozłe i świętowaćdobre jak zebraliśmy się wokół jednego 209 litrowego pojemnika metalowego z kominkiem w środku Nie . nigdy nie będzie innym razem tak. na razie mam do czynienia z odejściem przyjaciela i zacząłem myśleć, że to nie był wypadek."
------

Diese beiden letzten Tag war ich auf dem neuesten Update zu " Doughboy City" arbeitet und hier ist ein wenig etwas, etwas für Sie:

" Wenn der Abend kommt Doughboy Stadt , schnell , sind Feuer Barrel lit. Die Feuer Barrel sind 209 Liter tatsächlich Metallbehälter mit der Spitze entfernt und ein Feuer auf der Innenseite. Die Wärme, die Barrel abgibt ist fantastisch und wenn Sie Ihre Kameraden zu sammeln um ihn herum , na ja, das sind einige der besten Zeiten . Viele Jahre von jetzt an, werde ich mich erinnern und wissen, dass nichts wäre zu jener einfachen Zeiten zu vergleichen. Wenn alle die Aktion für den Tag hat aufgehört und es war nur Soldaten und kein Einfluss von außen . , nur Infanteristen konnten sie selbst zu sein , sie konnten ihre Wache im Stich gelassen , nur schießen " die Scheiße " oder Entlüftung über das schlechte und feiern das gut, wie wir um einen einzigen 209 Liter Metallbehälter gesammelt mit einem prasselnden Feuer im Inneren gibt . würde nie ein anderes Mal so sein. Denn jetzt, ich wurde mit der Verabschiedung eines Freundes zu tun , und ich dachte schon, es war kein Unfall. "

Doughboy City (Update #4)

Hello Readers,

I hope you are doing well. Here is some news on what is happening here.

First off, I want to thank everyone that has purchased a copy. I also want you to know that I am very appreciative of the fact that you took the time to buy the ebook and read it and most of all being patient with me and my updates. The idea with the updates was to create a "serial" effect in presenting the book from start to finish. I am big fan of old time radio (radio plays from the 1930s and 1940s) and decided to try this format with my first ebook. I do hope it is not too inconvenient. Don't worry, it will be finished soon.

Speaking of finishing soon, the next addition to the ebook should be live some time in very late November.

If you are interested in the next book in the Occupied Berlin series it has been tentatively titled: "Berlin Airlift" and I will post a little something about that new book here some time very soon.

Here is a very small excerpt from the upcoming update:

“Good, hopefully he’ll stay in the CP until just before they decide to attack.”

“This should be interesting seeing them attack from up here”

“It will be nice to not be lugging this beast down that hill then up and down the streets at Doughboy.”

“Careful what you say, they could at the last minute tell us to follow them on the attack.”

All up and down the line of 90MM Recoilless Rifles and M60 Machineguns the men of Alpha Company are settling themselves in for a quick rest before chaos breaks the morning calm and the flashes and bangs changes the tone of the day. Before the line of men and weapons of war the ground will shake and the sky will be filled a new set of clouds. The smoke of burning tires, smoke canisters, and wood will hang close to the ground replacing the grey and white of the morning fog.

What seems like an hour is only a few minutes later when word comes down the line that everyone is to get another front layer of bags put in place. More digging, more bags.

“Alright, be right back” as Guerra moves out to get started on filling and moving sand bags.

As I started filling the two half empty bags I could hear some discussion just off to the right and on the other side of the fog. I recognized the voices.


 That is all for now. Thank you, David

==== I hope the following translation makes sense, If it does not I apologize ====

Witam Czytelników,

Mam nadzieję, że robisz dobrze. Oto wieści o tym, co się tutaj dzieje.

Po pierwsze, chcę podziękować wszystkim, że został zakupiony egzemplarz. Ja też chcę, żebyś wiedział, że jestem bardzo wdzięczny za to, że wziął czas, aby kupić ebook i przeczytaj go, a przede wszystkim pacjent jest ze mną i moimi aktualizacje. Pomysł z aktualizacji było stworzenie "Serial" efektu prezentując książkę od początku do końca. Jestem wielkim fanem starego radia czasu (słuchowiska radiowe z 1930 i 1940) i postanowiliśmy spróbować tego formatu z mojego pierwszego ebooka. Mam nadzieję, że to nie jest zbyt uciążliwe. Nie martw się, będzie zakończona wkrótce.

Mówiąc o ukończeniu szybko, następny dodatek do ebooka należy żyć trochę czasu w listopadzie bardzo późno.

Jeśli jesteś zainteresowany w następnej książki na okupowanych serii Berlin został roboczo zatytułowany: "Berlin Airlift" i będę pisać coś o tej nowej książce tutaj jakiś czas bardzo szybko.


Tutaj jestbardzo mały fragment z nadchodzącej aktualizacji :
"Dobra , mam nadzieję, że pobyt w CP , aż po prostu , zanim zdecydują się na atak."
"To powinno być ciekawe zobaczyć ich atakować z tutaj"
"To będzie miło nie być dźwiga tę bestię w dół tego wzgórza , a następnie w górę iw dół po ulicach w doughboy."
"Uważaj , co mówisz , mogli w ostatniej chwili powiedzieć nam śledzić ich na atak. "
Wszystko w górę iw dółlinia 90mm bezodrzutowe i M60 karabiny ludzie z firmy Alpha regulują się na szybki odpoczynku przed chaos łamie spokojny poranek i miga i zmienia hukitone dnia. Przedlinii mężczyzn i broni wojnygruntu będzie się trząść iniebo zostaną wypełnione nowy zestaw chmury. Dym z płonących opon , naboje dymne , oraz drewna zawiśnie blisko ziemi zastępujeszary i biały z porannej mgły .
Co wydaje się godzinę jest tylko kilka minut później, gdy słowo pochodzi dół linii , że każdy ma dostać inną przednią warstwę torby umieszczone w miejscu. Więcej kopania , więcej torby .
"Dobrze, zaraz wracam ", jak Guerra przenosi się do rozpoczęcia napełniania i przenoszenie worków z piaskiem .
Jak zacząłem wypełnienie dwóch pół pustych worków Słyszałem dyskusję tuż na prawo , a na drugiej stronie mgły. Rozpoznałem głosy.


To wszystko na teraz . Dziękuję,
David

About Comardes Anatoly and Yuri

I started writing "Doughboy City" back in November of 2011 as part of the National Novel Writing Month project or NANOWRIMO.  NANOWRIMO has become an annual event in which would-be authors write every day for one month straight at least 1000 words a day.  The result is, ideally, a novel of 30,000 words is written and ready for editing.
Well, I did not get to 30,000 words but I got close and in doing so I have the story along with a solid outline and the core cast of characters.  It was not until I came back and re-visited the story that I decided it was time to finish "Doughboy City".

Now I could have started with the original beginning but would have left too many holes in the storyline that needed to be filled.  Therefore, I took the chronological approach and decided to start in 1945.

I wanted to explain not just what was happening but how fast things were happening and how certain things happen to be at the right place at the right time.

Thus Anatoly and Yuri were born.  Now, I am more than sure there were at least one Anatoly and one Yuri in the Soviet Red Army in the last days of World War II.  However, I cannot verify if any were actually assigned to the specific mortar unit mentioned in the story.  The story called for these two to guide us down this path and they needed names.

Now, these two may or may not play any further role in the story.  However, I would not count them out in any of the stories left to be told.  The occupation of Berlin lasted quite a long time so rest assured that leaves the door wide open, heck; it leaves it wide open for all the characters. This applies to the living and dead.

Now, do not take this as something that is written in stone but I will leave all the options on the table.  Let us just call it the author's prerogative.

However, one thing is certain in all future stories look for all members of the Army of Occupation to be mentioned. They may even play a role or two (or more) in the upcoming storylines.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.  I truly appreciate it and I really appreciate you.

Book #1: Doughboy City

The first book in the OCCUPIED BERLIN: Tales from Freedon's Outpost series is DOUGHBOY CITY.

Book Description:
During the Allied Occupation of Berlin (1945-1994) the US soldiers needed a place to hone their skills and prepare for when the Soviets and the Warsaw Pact moved towards making Khrushchev's Ultimatum a reality. Doughboy City was where they went to train and practice their soldier skills.

Doughboy City was a mock city with its own subway station and city hall. As with any training situation there will be accidents and Doughboy City had its fair share of accidents over its brief history. However, one foggy morning the training turns deadly. The military called it a horrible accident but one Soldier knows it was not but cannot prove who did it. He accuses the most logical person but accusing and proving are two different things. That is until an unlikely duo changes everything for everyone.

All this takes place in the days before the world would change forever. Then again, in Berlin change is an everyday occurrence.

Doughboy City is published exclusively for the Kindle ebook and sells for $0.99.
This first release contains Chapters 1 & 2 with subsequent chapters to follow.


***IMPORTANT: All updates will be made to this title until all chapters are added and the book is complete. By the time it is all said an done you will have purchased the entire book for $0.99 ***

Welcome to the Official Blog of Occupied Berlin (Tales from Freedom's Outpost)

Welcome to the Official Blog of Occupied Berlin (Tales from Freedom's Outpost)

This blog will chronicle the activities behind this new project I have undertaken. I have started writing a series of FICTION stories set during the Occupation of Berlin from 1945 to 1990 by the World War II Victorious Allies (French, British, Soviet, and U.S.).

The stories themselves will be individual books to the series. The stories will also be set during key dates and event during the history of  post-War Berlin. Basically, I will use the Cold War as a background and on occasion the Cold War will be front and center in the storyline, I mean it is Berlin we are talking about.

Please enjoy, ask questions, and please I beg you to provide feedback. How else will I know how I am doing.

Thank you,
David G. Guerra
