The Bluejacket's Manual, 24th Edition

• Used Book in Good Condition

From the days of oars and coal-fired engines to the computerized era of the twenty-first century, <i>The Bluejacket's Manual</i> has been an essential part of the American Sailor's sea bag for more than one hundred years, serving as an introduction to the Navy for new recruits and as a reference book for Sailors of all ranks. Written by a Sailor whose decades of naval service included sea duty in patrol craft, destroyers, and aircraft carriers as both an officer and a "white hat," this newest edition has been overhauled to reflect the current state of the ever-evolving U.S. Navy, adding such things as camouflage uniforms, new ratings, and the Navy Professional Reading Program. <br><p>Primarily intended to serve Bluejackets, this book will also be welcomed by potential recruits, Navy buffs, and a growing number of <i>Bluejacket's Manual</i> collectors.
