A Good Look At Boot Camp

This text is an excellent guide to parents and would-be soldiers who have enlisted or are wanting to enlist. It examines the boot camp expereince and talks, generally, about Army life after graduation. The boot camp experience is well described and illustrated with photgraphs from recent classes. Some details on materials trained, such as Army Values, and Soldier's Creed are included.I do not recommend this text for personnel currently serving in the Army since the information is so elementary, it would be of little value. However, I would highly recommend this text to Recruiters who are helping applicants and their parents to understand the Army experience.Overall, well written and well illustrated with no technical flaws to speak of.
