Book excerpt: As part of research to develop improved techniques for assigning officers according to the psychological requirements of different kinds of officer jobs, an attitude questionnaire is administered to junior officers comprising the experimental sample. At the request of DCSPER, a preliminary analysis was made of statements made in the 'Comments' section of questionnaire. Statements made by 150 officers were categorized and examined in relation both to intention to remain in the Army and to area of job assignment--combat, technical, or administrative. Of the total sample, 50 percent indicated intention to leave the service. The percentage was much higher for technical officers (74%) than for combat (30%) or administrative (46%) officers. Concern over inadequate use of abilities and training was expressed by 48 percent, over half of whom intended to leave the service. 23% expressed a desire that individual preferences be considered in making officer assignments. About 23 percent indicated that junior officer pay was felt to be low in comparison with civilian pay. Some officers made more than one reference to these reasons for concern, indicating that these matters were of considerable importance to the individual.

Book excerpt: This thesis explored the impact of the Army junior officer development model upon combat effectiveness. The research hypothesis was junior officers do not receive sufficient experiential development prior to implementation as direct leaders, which may have a negative impact upon the combat effectiveness of the units they lead. This thesis defined the current Army junior officer development model, surveyed the evolution of officer development, and explored alternative models used by selected international armies. Research used qualitative analysis to evaluate impacts to combat effectiveness of direct units led by junior officers, using four criteria: the occupational screening process of military personnel; technical competence and organizational stress; confidence, judgment, and the ability to lead by example; and empathy for and understanding of subordinates. Analysis of these criteria across multiple disciplinary sources revealed a bias toward degraded combat effectiveness of units led by junior officers without prior military experience. Analysis also revealed a common period of on the job learning used by many armies throughout history to immerse future leaders in military culture and operations. The thesis recommended the Army begin requiring two years of enlisted service as a pre-requisite of commissioning in order to provide more well-rounded, capable direct leaders.
