Naval History

[close] A group for those who like stories with a strong Military/Government leaning that are set in the Washington D.C./ Midatlantic area.

[close] This group is about reading books on military history. Personally, I'm only really interested up through the 19th century, but later stuff is of course welcome.

[close] "What are you reading?" That's the question John Laney nearly fumbled when he faced a review board considering him for a command position. Realizing how critical reading is to anyone becoming a well-rounded and well-grounded individual, he founded DODReads an organization dedicated to reading and lifelong learning. Here, the DODReads organization invites those with that same vision to gather, post, and comment. Books on the DODReads Group site include those on the Navy, Army, AirForce and Marine reading lists and others submitted as relevant by group members.

[close] This group is primarily intended for active, reserve, retired or military veterans. This serves as a forum to discuss professional reading for military history, current affairs, etc. The U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force all have professional reading lists which are largely mandatory for active personnel based on rank/pay grade. This can provide a forum for professional discussion and mentorship. Veterans of foreign military are highly encouraged to join and offer insight and alternative perspectives. Not intended for military fiction, science fiction, military romance, etc.
