A handbook for revolutionaries
or how to overthrow your officers
and take over a navy.
The
'Great'
War circunstances were scrnewhat
different than the Vietnam War -–
but not that different.
The
blund–
ering,
iron-~lnded
officers; the
poor food and living conditions;
the endless war. Also included is a
very real officer's rebellion
against the central government.
SomeWhat familiar? All this comes
from the German naval archives
which were opened after the second
'Great' war and have been finally
whipped into readable shape
by
Dan–
iel Horn, associate professor of
history at Rutgers . It's impossible
to print a
book
today about how to
directly overthrow the American
military. But the techniques pre–
sented here are some of the closest
indirect observations on present–
day revolution that can
be
pub-
1ished.
