Just like the book
hdgdhrtvsjdhdbid
It’s just like the department of the army field manual it might not be word for word but it is fm21-76 which is the number of the book so solid five star rating
Is gud
*^**^*^^*^^
This is the ultimate consumer-friendly move, making this app free with a trove of information alone is pretty amazing. Nowadays we get charged for everything basic on our devices and it's nice to see someone is nice enough to take their time to make a free app full of useful info instead of making 5.99 and putting addon packs.
