5.0 out of 5 stars For the Airman and His Family, September 16, 2004
This review is from: Airman's Guide: 6th Edition (Paperback)
Intended for anyone going into the Air Force, their families and others who by interest or other relationships are involved with air force personnel. That's quite a sentence, but it's true. <BR><BR>For instance, if you are thinking of joining the Air Force, but you have a tattoo - what's the Air Force policy. What about educational opportunities, a lot of people enter the Air Force directly from high school and come out with masters degrees. How do you get the assignments you want.

These kinds of questions are things that the old hand master sargeant knows all about because he has been there for many years. This book was written by just such a sargeant and covers nearly any question possible. Anyone thinking about the Air Force should get two copies of this book, one for himself or herself, and another to leave with his family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed Guidebook., March 8, 2009
By 
m_virtua (Colorado Springs, CO) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I'm a new recruit, and as far as I can tell, this book details everything worth knowing and more about the Air Force and its standards. I'm glad to have picked this up before heading out to basic training. I get the impression that most of what you learn (non-physically) at basic and beyond will serve as a reinforcement to what this book teaches you.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what i expected, November 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this product because I thought it would help me learn something useful before enrolling in the air force. If you are buying it for the same reason, don't do it, it doesn't have information that you will need. I ended up reselling it for a fraction of the price.
