New softcover in printed wraps. Text is clean and free of marks or underlining. Includes appendices 4]. 216 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. This newest edition of the classic guide for military officers is a necessity given the volatility of our current political climate.

This is an updated and rewritten edition of the 1950 classic, The Armed Forces Officer. This edition includes a foreword by General Joseph F. Dunford, Jr., the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.…
