The
Bluejacket's Manual (23rd Ed)
by Thomas J. Cutler
Book Description: In 1902 when Lt. Ridley McLean first wrote this "sailor's
bible," he described it as a manual for every person in the naval service.
One hundred years later, it continues to serve as a primer for newly enlisted
sailors and as a basic reference for all naval personnel--from seaman to
admiral. New technology is artfully blended with ancient heritage, facts
and figures are augmented by helpful advice, and the mysterious language
of the sea is preserved and deciphered in a volume that has served the
United States Navy for an entire century. Updated throughout, the book
provides the latest Navy ratings, uniforms, ships, aircraft, and weapons
as well as current Navy policies on hazing, fraternization, education,
and physical fitness, and a completely new chapter explaining the Navy's
mission in terms of its rich heritage.
The author, winner of the Alfred Thayer Mahan Award for Naval Literature,
has served the Navy in many capacities, both as an enlisted man and officer,
and he brings that experience and his devotion to the service to these
pages. He explains new terms and such concepts as leadership and core values
in both inspiring and pragmatic terms. Relevant photographs, diagrams,
and tables enhance the presentation, and accompanying appendixes include
a glossary and a wealth of reference material that every sailor will want
to keep at hand.
