 Not Much Changed From Prior EditionsSep 12, 2009
By J. Diamond
I'm an Army Major, who as a young Lieutenant purchased a much older generation of the Army Officer's Guide. A lot has changed in the last 15 years though, and I thought that the new edition would include those changes. Many of those changes are included, but I was left wanting in terms of the more recent adjustments to uniform policies, etc. Of course with that said, this book is a must have for any cadet, or newly commissioned officer just entering the service.

 Much Needed Change for this GuideOct 04, 2009
By V. K. Shaw
"MAJ Shaw"
Been using the Officer's Guide, like most, since I was a cadet. 11 years and four versions later, this edition incorporates much needed changes from antiquated notions and language. I never found the sections in previous versions addressing WWII sexually transmitted diseases useful--in fact, for years there were entire sections of this guide that instructed officers how to help a lost spouse at the airport and to help her with her bags especially if she was burdened with children and luggage. Seriously--in 2005??? This updated 2009 version, with a new author, is welcomed.
I also note that the annex on uniforms is very helpful in navagating the recent changes to insignia and wear of newly minted badges. With the recent major changes from Class A's to the ASU and BDU's to ACUs, this text expertly guides new and experienced officers alike to solutions with these new uniform adjustments. I, myself, was having trouble navagating through the seeminly conflicting barrage of ALARACT messages concerning implementation of the new ASU--and how to wear our current dress blues as Class A's and B's. Very confusing, Army!! Thanks to the authors of this book for deconflicting with ease for me.

 A good reference toolFeb 01, 2009
By K. Requa
I've never used the older editions of the Officers guide, but this book is pretty thorough. I'm a cadet in Army ROTC and this book was suggested to me by one of my Cadre members, so thats what led me to purchase it.
It's not a book i would sit down and read front to back but there are good sections worth reading start to finish. However some of it is information you wouldnt need to know unless you were about to go into that situation, for example the section about evening dining or funeral ceremonies. but it is packed with usefull information and if you're curious about a certain topic like uniform dress code or branch information you can just look it up and turn to the section.
It's a helpfull tool to have if you're training to become an officer like myself and want a quick reference that you know is up to date and Army approved.

A MUST HAVE for any new Second Lieutenant, but no info on OCS within!Jul 18, 2011
By R. Frank
Just graduated from OCS at Ft. Benning this past May 2011 and found this guide quite useful for a lot of information.
No we actually didn't have to read anything out of the guide, but it is useful to familiarize yourself with a lot of the material within as to what life may be like for you as an officer. Every Officer Candidate had a copy of this book on their desk regardless of if they used it or not.
One note that I found a little odd was that there was almost ZERO information in the book about OCS, which is one of the main reasons I wanted the book. If you want some information on OCS then google the OCS SOP. That was what almost everything at OCS was based off of.
Inside this guide though you'll find everything from customs, history, life on and off post in and out of country, rules and regulations as an officer, what you can expect and be expected of you, uniforms, awards/decorations, branching and promotions, and a whole lot more.
This book is an absolute NO-BRAINER if you even considering going through OCS or ROTC. Take it from this new 2LT, one way or another you'll have to get this book so you might as well start now and familiarize yourself with some of the material.

great bookApr 15, 2012
By Scott Chase
amazing book!!!!! very helpful for those newly commissioned officers but also a great review for those officers that have been in the service for a while. It goes over the custom and exceptions of an army officer.
