Great Read

I love this book. It's condensed, interesting and thought stimulating. I guess some of the novelty comes from knowing that people have actually used this book to liberate peoples we aren't aware of. The book is interesting, but some of the information is definitely sensitive and otherwise strictly for educational purposes.

cut & dry

This book is everything that the review says it is. The best thing about military handbooks it that they get right to the nitty gritty without all the fluff and bull that are in other books; they simply give the information in the most straight forward and easy way to understand. This handbook has a lot of illustrations and graphs. Some highlights are the ground-air emergancy code chart and the weapons, survival, and first aid manuals. Plus there are some stuff in here that not all people should have knowledge of, such as demolitions. Just so you know, since it's not mentioned elsewhere, this handbook comes small and pocket size.
