Applying for DCO as a non-prior service. I find out in January. Which (if any) of these books would be good to read if I'm selected?

I could drop $200 or whatever on them all, but the bigger question to me is whether the info is useful or not. The reviews on Amazon weren't very helpful - and also, I value this forum's perspective/gouge. Also, please feel free to suggest books not listed here.

I wouldn't blow a bunch of cash on that kind of thing, thinking you're going to set yourself up with a bunch of practical knowledges. A lot of those kinds of books are generally found strewn around the readyroom. If you get one, I'd recommend any of the first three you listed, and not the writing oriented ones. ADM "Sandy" Winnefeld (recent VCJCS) is one smart motherfucker.
Different people Jr and Sr. Jr just retired and Sr just passed away. Looks like the book was penned by Sr.
Good catch. Kooky!
Interesting article about what motivates employees. https://hbr.org/2015/11/how-company...cket&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=pockethits Check out the third graphic. I'd say the Navy does well with Identity. But Career Ladder? I seem to remember a hell of a lot of forum pages devoted to that discussion. This is a good article for all leaders to consider, especially those with 3 and 4 stars.

Is there an equivalent for the USMC?
Just search Amazon. There are several. I have no idea if the below one's any good or not, though.

The Marine Officer's Guide is nuts and bolts. http://www.amazon.com/Marine-Officers-Guide-7th-Edition/dp/1591142393
The Marines by John de St Jorre is culture and ethos. http://www.amazon.com/Marines-John-...49495410&sr=1-1&keywords=the+marines+st+jorre
The CNO had some nice words about him this morning at a Naval Institute event.
