s the crown jewel of Stackpole's military reference line. First published in 1930, this guide has been continuously revised since then and has become the gold-standard reference for the U.S. Army's officer corps, especially the new second lieutenants commissioned into the army out of West Point and ROTC programs.

This edition has been thoroughly revised and updated with the latest information on leadership, training, military justice, promotions, benefits, counseling soldiers, physical fitness, regulations, and much more--everything the officer needs to know in order to do his job well, to advance his career, to navigate the military, and to guide his soldiers on and off the battlefield.

Topics include

• How to train, lead, and counsel troops effectively
• Tips on how to move along your career as an NCO by continuing education, training, and professional development
• Information about all the regulations NCOs need to be aware of in carrying out their jobs
• And much, much more . . .

Stackpole has been guiding military officers and soldiers for more than 80 years. Our guides still offer the best advice in the business--better than any other book, better than the internet.
