This one-of-a kind book explains the system of procuring and training Army officers prior to World War I and the origin and evolution of the OCS concept during and after the war. Societal changes and the general loosening of the ties that bind our society since World War II have had a profound effect on the United States Army and Army OCS. The authority conferred by the commission alone has limited utility today compared to the Army of the past. More than ever before the officer of the future must lead by personal example. They must be good soldiers first, well educated and enlightened and hard. OCS has operated continuously since 1941 and remains one of the sternest tests officer candidates, men and women, will ever face. It remains the only source of commissioned Army officers capable of rapid expansion to meet the national defense needs of the nation in the future. This book includes photos from the National Archives and cartoons from class annuals. A must read for service members and retirees alike. A perfect gift for history lovers! Paperback, Label: Dr. Milton M. McPherson, Dr. Milton M. McPherson, Product group: Book, Published: 2001-04-01, Studio: Dr. Milton M. McPherson, Sales rank: 3698551.
