This is a shorter, less elaborate alternative to The United States Army: A Dictionary , edited by Peter Tsouras and others ( LJ 1/91). Zurick catalogs "the working language of the Army" from A-10 (a ground-support aircraft) to Zulu time (Greenwich mean time). The definitions, as a rule brief and accurate, are accompanied by references to their most familiar context: civil affairs, tactics, unconventional warfare, and so on. The work also includes a set of reference tables on subjects like military occupational specialties and physical fitness standards. While the work is primarily intended for military agencies, its comprehensive coverage should attract scholars and journalists who deal more or less regularly with the army's alphabet soup.
