Specifically, it identifies how much information DoD has on retention trends across the services & analyzes changes in retention rates in the aggregate & by career stage & occupation from 1988-1998. Widespread reductions in retention rates were not evident at the aggregate level across the services from 1988-1998. Aggregate measures of retention, however, mask significant reductions that occurred among specific groups of military personnel in different career stages & occupational specialties. Charts & tables.

Book excerpt: Widespread reductions in retention rates were not evident at the aggregate level across the services from 1988 through 1998. Aggregate measures of retention, however, mask significant reductions that occurred among specific groups of military personnel in different career stages and occupational specialties. These drops in retention were more evident among groups of enlisted personnel than among officers. Although aggregate retention rates declined to some extent in the early 1990s, enlisted and officer rates in 1996-98 (after the drawdown) were very similar to those in 1988-90 (before the drawdown). Enlisted retention rates increased in the Army and the Navy by about 2 percent and 7 percent, respectively, decreased in the Marines by about 5 percent, and remained unchanged in the Air Force. However, when examining recent trends (1998 compared with 1996-97), we found that retention rates declined for enlisted personnel in the Army, the Air Force, and the Marines by 4 to 8 percent. Among officers, retention rates changed by about 1 percent over both the long and the short term.

Book excerpt: The war in Iraq and the problematic military occupation of that country have called into question the adequacy of America's all-volunteer force. Politicians and others have expressed doubts about its equity and capability; some have called for the reinstatement of the draft. Yet over the past twenty years the all-volunteer military has become a technologically advanced force that has contributed to America's overall military advantage. This book analyzes current military pay and personnel policies and identifies changes needed to maintain and improve America's all-volunteer force. Filling the Ranks argues that to attract qualified and motivated volunteers, the armed forces need to offer better tangible inducements—pay, benefits, and training—to accompany such intangible rewards as pride in serving one's country. Many of the policies related to tangible rewards were established shortly after World War II and are no longer effective. Filling the Ranks presents detailed assessments of US military pay and personnel policies in light of the strategic, demographic, economic, and labor realities of the future. It identifies specific problems that today's military career patterns, training, pay, and benefits pose for officers and enlisted men and women in both active duty and reserve forces, discussing such issues as competition with the private sector for talent, the need to restructure compensation, and provision of family support. It offers recommendations for more flexible, adaptive, and effective policies and a blueprint for achieving them.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early and mid-1990s, when the military reduced personnel levels, retention was not a primary concern. However, DOD and Congress have long recognized that some servicemembers, particularly those in certain technical areas, can be difficult to retain. In 1998, DOD raised concerns about retention overall and about the quality and readiness of its forces. In testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee in September 1998, the members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff testified that retention rates had declined force-wide and within specific critical occupations. In response to these concerns, Congress increased military pay across-the-board and repealed legislation that lowered retirement benefits for some military personnel. In the last quarter of fiscal year 2000, the services reported they were generally successful in retaining more personnel at the aggregate level but were still concerned about readiness in selected critical skill areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past ten years, maintenance career fields in the U.S. Air Force have been negatively affected by a series of events that have resulted in an experience shortage. Although there has been an improvement in Total Force manning since 2015, several skill levels are still experiencing shortages. To bridge the experience shortfall, the U.S. Government Accountability Office called for an Air Force retention strategy tailored to retain experienced maintainers. The RAND Corporation was asked to explore whether individual characteristics, economic and geographic factors, and the new Blended Retirement System (BRS) could provide additional insights into what predicts retention of this workforce. This report focuses primarily on aircraft maintenance career fields, with some attention to munitions and logistics career fields as resources permitted. The authors undertake two analytic approaches to examine the underlying determinants of retention. First, they use logistic regression to determine how strongly a variety of individual and environmental characteristics are associated with decisions to reenlist, extend an enlistment, or separate from the Air Force; second, they use RAND's Dynamic Retention Model to estimate how the new BRS will affect maintenance, munitions, and logistics career fields when those in the new system reach retention decision points. The authors find that changes in individual characteristics and environmental variables have improved retention in the maintenance, munitions, and logistics career fields. Although much of what influences retention is beyond the Air Force's control, the authors offer a number of recommendations and identify areas of emphasis that could be exploited.
