For those that prefer print, you can pick up soft cover versions at Barnes and Noble for cheap. They have a service where they sell low cost versions of public documents - you can get a print copy of the 911 report for instance. I think I paid about $30 for both volumes.
Made me look! Here's a link to FREE pdf files:

You can reprint them with the link above, just the tube section is OVER 200 pages though!
I was an Aviation Structural Mech instrutor in Memphis for 4 yrs. I can still remember the TWEETS bitching about the NEETS! Great series of books. And the reason it is easy to understand is that most manuals the Navy writes are on an 8th grade learning level.
I wrote curriculum for many courses.
It's great that these are available online for free, but I have a thing for actual books. Does anyone know where I can buy physical copies of these? I've looked and looked and can only find free downloads and ripoff CD roms. I don't know anybody in the Navy. Army and Air Force, yes, but I'm guessing that won't help, though I haven't tried.
I keep trying the usual used sources, such as abebooks, alibris, half etc. with no luck.
Thanks,
Zach
"rent-a-crow": Now there's a phrase I haven't heard in 20 years! BTW, any of you guys see what's become of NATTC Millington? Wow..essentially all gone. As much as I disliked the local area the base itself was pretty nice. Big Exchange, nice pool, excellent fitness center, and a good-sized library. I often think of the sailors/Marines I was in class with and the guys in my barracks. We had an awful lot of great times. Even being TAD to the galley brings back a lot of laughs today.
