As anyone who has undergone the transition from civilian to
soldier will tell you, basic training is a lot tougher and
more challenging than any recruit can imagine. Michael
Volkin discovered that fact soon after 9-11, when his
personal vow to serve my country convinced him to enlist in
the U.S. Army. As Volkin quickly discovered, he was utterly unprepared for
the new world of the military, "a completely different
environment full of unknown exercises and acronyms, where
can't eat or talk without permission. Volkin began taking
notes on everything and anything with the hope that no one
else would have to go through basic training like I did
completely unarmed with knowledge that would have eased my
transition into the military and allowed me to be more
successful. During Operation Enduring/Iraqi Freedom, Volkin organized
his notes, interviewed hundreds of other soldiers, and began
to write. The result is The Ultimate Basic Training
Guidebook, a unique and utterly indispensable guide to
successfully coping with and thriving in today's military. The Ultimate Basic Training Guidebook is a comprehensive,
practical, and easy-to-follow survival guide written
specifically for every new or prospective recruit about to
enter any branch of the armed forces. Volkin's book offers
step-by-step instructions and solutions, including helpful
charts and graphics, for how to prepare both physically and
mentally for boot camp. It includes a special eight-week
fitness program specifically designed to improve your
fitness test scores, specific study guides, an instructional
How to"chapter, a list of what to bring (and not to bring)
to basic training, tips for success, and much more. The Ultimate Basic Training Guidebook was written by a
soldier for men and women who want to become soldiers. No
one should enter boot camp without having read this book.
