This book is the one many people in the military do not want recruits to read. The guide contains extremely helpful hints and advice to help new enlistees during the rigors of military training. Most important, the information is free from biased interests because it is "written by a recruit for a recruit." Although tailored toward the Army and Marines, any person enlisting in the Armed Forces will find the information exceedingly valuable. Even if a person is just thinking about the military, this book will help.

This review is from: The Real Insider's Guide to Military Basic Training: A Recruit's Guide of Advice and Hints to Make It Through Boot Camp (2nd Edition) (Paperback)
At 31, I was considering the military. I thought it would be something to join and have a job. However, this book gave me the inside of what REALLY goes on in the military, Good and Bad. For me , this book really helped in making my decision.

Finally, A Good Book!,

This review is from: The Real Insider's Guide to Military Basic Training: A Recruit's Guide of Advice and Hints to Make It Through Boot Camp (2nd Edition) (Paperback)
I'm not much on writing long reviews, but I thought this little book was worth it because it helped me. Finally, of the few books out there regarding what to expect during basic training, this book is the best and most current. I've read the other two (including Mr. Thompson's first edition) and can say with certainty this book (2nd edition) is highly informative and insightful. You can even e-mail the author for more info. The best advice, don't trust just one book or just one source for your information. I ended up not enlisting for full time service, but still considering the Reserves. I'm glad I had this book to make an informed decision. Good luck if you are going in!
