New NCO? Been one for awhile? Here is a book that I wish I read sooner. I also think that any person in any leadership position should read this book or listen to it on tape. The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John C. Maxwell can enable you and your organization/team to accomplish its mission, thrive in adversity and stand out as certain achievers. This isn't Quality Air Force, this is leadership. It is a great recommendation for any rank, E-1 to O-10.

Programming:Perl:
Perl in 21 days. Great way to start
Windows NT Perl Programming is a great book for perl programmers looking to interface Office files among others into web applications. Not for beginners!
General:
TCP/IP
Illustrated, Vol 1 - a very thorough explanation of the protocol. One of the
best references I have seen to date!
Security:
Hacking
Exposed (Third Edition) has usable examples, scripts and theory.
This is the best book available for hacking and securing UNIX, NT, Novell systems, as well
as Cisco routers! It uses simple language, shows you exactly how to hack a specific
vulnerability, and then (most importantly) how to secure it! I highly recommend this
book.
Windows NT Security Handbook Older book that is still very helpful. Also has a few examples.
