Usage examples of "thoma".

Thoma and Luis slammed their car doors to the convertible, they were two young men with long strides in black uniforms, gliding alongside each other up the steps.

The eyes of those men hurrying by sometimes snagged on Luis, so odd-looking was he beside the hale Thoma, and he began his accustomed descent into contempt for those without scars.

Thoma laughed, he and his Iron Cross, and Luis felt his own discomfort ease.

Thoma came to stand beside Luis, Major Grimm sidled around to the Soviet side of the chart.

Thoma stood now cajoling Luis, wanting a secret, something from beneath the flesh to share, something only for the two of them to know.

When he came around to the west, the horizon above the roofs flickered orange, body blows to the three SS divisions in a row there, where Thoma sped and Luis belonged.

Captain Thoma and others lost those tanks to improper use and unnecessary risk, and was lucky not to have lost this one, as well.

Luis would not move ahead into the sting of the dug-in Red infantry without ground troops this was how Thoma had lost so many tanks and the attack stalled again.

After leaving the Moluccas, bound southeast for Porto Sancti Thomae in New Guinea, as it was necessary to call at the places where the Society of Jesus had its missions, the ship, driven by a storm, became lost in waters never before seen, arriving at an island inhabited by rats as big as boys, with very long tails and bags over their abdomen.

Ora pro Thoma Malory Equite, discipuloque humili ejus, qui nunc sua sponte libros deponit ut pro specie pugnet.
