What reading level is The Psychology of Handling Men in the Army book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"The captain is responsible for results in his organi- zation, and it is desirable that the instruction of the vari- ous parts of the company by subordinate officers be along the lines laid down by the company commander. Where concerted action is not desired there can be no objection to giving officers or non-commissioned officers, who are given work to do, [the liberty] to use their own judg- ment and initiative. When I tell a sergeant to take a squad and clear a certain piece of ground, or to... take his detachment to a certain place at a certain time, I do not give him minute detail as to how he shall accomplish it. I expect him to accomplish the purpose using his own initiative and judgment. " "No two men can be treated alike. Take a squad of recruits, you can teach them the school of the squad, and the manual of arms in the squad as a whole, but each will have his minor faults, which will take individual instructions and many times worlds of patience. For one will insist on holding his gun in a certain position, or grasping the rifle in the wrong place, or stepping off on the right foot, or many other little things that he should not do, and it is mostly in drilling the recruits that an officer makes or breaks himself in the soldiers' viewpoint, for the first impression is always the strongest impres- sion.
