David: Don't worry about it - I assume he's looking for a "Bearings Book" - it has the stuff you'll learn and memorize for plebe knowledge in it, at least "back in the day" it did. They'll give you what you need re: that sort of stuff during indoc. Just show up in shape and ready to enjoy the humid, Long Island summer and you'll be fine.
All: Not sure I understand the "troll" comment re:L Sandbar, though also not sure why someone who seems focused on life and times at USCGA by his past posts and thread participation is looking for a copy of a book that includes such gems of knowledge as to the height, and metallurgical composition of the world's tallest unguyed flagpole either.....
