The Junior Officer Guidebook: The Book I Wish I Had as a Newly Commissioned Army Officer


Overview

This genuinely may be the best book available on the market for junior Army officers. Instead of being written by a senior / retired officer, removed from the junior officer cohort by many years, I wrote it as a Captain who was recently a part of this group of officers. I reflected on all the things that I had to learn the hard way or weren't taught during BOLC / CCC. This book would've been incredibly helpful to have when I initially commissioned, and it shortens the learning curve for what junior leaders need to learn or know prior to being in the seat - whether that's as a Platoon Leader or as BN Staff. The book includes how-to guides; checklists of doctrine & products to collect; and insights from Company Command, each of the BN S-Shops, Some Special Staff, and Senior NCOs for what junior officers should know before taking a position at their 1st or 2nd unit. This book covers: - Advice to Lieutenants - Equipment Maintenance - Army Property - Evaluations - Advice to Junior Captains - Career Planning - Command & Staff Insights and Resources - Other Helpful Resources - And other helpful first-hand knowledge from my time as a LT / Jr CPT The intent of this book is to offer a resource to bring junior officers up and to better develop the leaders that future U.S. Army Soldiers deserve.
