This is the guide to being a soldier in the U.S. Army. The Soldier's Guidebook answers your questions about Army life, traditions, history, awards, weapon systems, current trends, promotion policy, pay, education, retirement benefits, rank structure - and more. It's the only book that provides an up-to-date picture of all facets of Army life and all the practical information that a soldier needs to know from the day he or she considers joining the Army until discharge or retirement. It is the authoritative source for the person considering Army service, the new recruit, the seasoned veteran, and the interested civilian. Over 300 illustrations.
Bluhm and Motley, retired U.S. Army officers, have condensed information from diverse U.S. Army publications (field manuals, pamphlets, and circulars) to offer an excellent introduction to life in the U.S. Army. This guidebook contains introductory information on U.S. Army history, organization, weapons and vehicles, dress codes, sample soldier skills, induction, basic training, and current (1994) pay scales. Because it is drawn from original army sources, The Soldier's Guidebook is more authoritative than other available sources, such as Frank Cox's NCO Guide (Stackpole, 1995. 5th rev. ed.) and his Enlisted Soldiers Guide (Stackpole, 1994. 3d ed.). Highly recommended for high school libraries and guidance counselors, public library job-skills centers, and all libraries serving new recruits in the military.?Richard Nowicki, Emerson Vocational H.S., Buffalo, N.Y.
