The first part of the book consists of “Chapters” that provide introductions and basic explanations that Sailors new to the Navy will find most helpful.
The second part consists of “Tabs” that deal with specifics—often mere tables—that seasoned Sailors will find useful for reference purposes.
Also included are Appendices that contain general reference information.
See the Table of Contents for lists of the above.
