I am the father of an Air Force Academy cadet and I purchased this book along with a few others because I had heard good reviews about it. I gifted this book to my son as he has just completed his Class of 2011 Recognition. We read the book and reviewed it's content. Without a doubt it is one of the best, if not "the" best reference book for anything you may need to know while being an officer in the United States Air Force. Everything from making requests for base assignments to protocol at a formal dinner it's in there. "A wonderful addition to an officer's library", is how my son described this book.

This book is fantasic, it has many good suggestions on how to become a great Air Force officer. I have found that it is helpful regardless if I do join the military or not, because of it's managerial background. I look forward to reading the rest of the book, and studying the text more throughly.

Excellent source of information, bit of a dry read though... definately a must have for all current/future AF officers.
