Chapter 1 - History of wars found in Traveller's universe. (Rating - mostly boring but good was side notes on role-playing in the military and military slang)
Chapter 2 - Army structure in the Imperium forces (focusing like the break down of the corp into the various battalions, squadrons, regiments, etc.). Rating - good but not great
Chapter 3 - Imperial marines. Rating- good but not great.
Chapter 4 - Characters. Rating- good but templates superb. Wish there were more templates.
Chapter 5 - Operations. Rating- good. Rules for building an army is great.
Chapter 6 - Standard Issue. About Vehicles, Guns, and equipment. Rating - Great.
Chapter 7 - Grav Vehicle Design. Rating - Great.
Chapter 8 - Personnel Files. Rating- Good. Characters are a little cliche.

A great out of print find!

Perilanim

This book has it all. Maps, history, weapons, organizational charts, slang, traditions, characters, special forces, citations, orders, military justice, battle dress, drop ships, operational procedures... (deep breath). Even if you know nothing about the military, you can read this book, and run a campaign that'll leave your players thinking you're a retired SgtMaj.
So there I was...

Shezokha

The author is a former US Army NCO and applies that sense of "Been There, Done That" to his writing. This is a good source book for any Traveller rule system.
