Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An overview of the broad trends and policies that have emerged during the transition from the selective service draft to an all-volunteer military. The report is divided into three parts. Part I discusses the factors underlying the decision to end the draft. The analysis shows that the AVF was essentially the only viable alternative for eliminating the inequities of the draft. Part II examines the early AVF experience and concludes that the AVF has succeeded in attracting a socially representative mix of the desired quantity and quality of recruits at a substantially lower cost than is commonly assumed. Part III examines broader implications raised by the removal of the draft, showing that major changes in manpower utilization and management are required to provide an effective defense at a cost the American public is willing to pay, and that the removal of the draft provides an opportunity for making such changes.

Book excerpt: As U.S. military forces appear overcommitted and some ponder a possible return to the draft, the timing is ideal for a review of how the American military transformed itself over the past five decades, from a poorly disciplined force of conscripts and draft-motivated "volunteers" to a force of professionals revered throughout the world. Starting in the early 1960s, this account runs through the current war in Iraq, with alternating chapters on the history of the all-volunteer force and the analytic background that supported decisionmaking. The author participated as an analyst and government policymaker in many of the events covered in this book. His insider status and access offer a behind-the-scenes look at decisionmaking within the Pentagon and White House. The book includes a foreword by former Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird. The accompanying DVD contains more than 1,700 primary-source documents-government memoranda, Presidential memos and letters, staff papers, and reports-linked directly from citations in the electronic version of the book. This unique technology presents a treasure trove of materials for specialists, researchers, and students of military history, public administration, and government affairs to draw upon.

Download or read book The All volunteer Force written by Richard V. L. Cooper and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the all-volunteer force in the context of the national debate about military manpower procurement. The debate has raised a number of specific issues — one is whether the military services can attract a sufficient number of volunteers. In addition, there are questions about the cost of the all-volunteer force, quality of new recruits, social representation without the draft, and mobilization potential. Despite these concerns, the first few years of the volunteer force have shown that the military services can attract a socially representative mix of the desired quantity and quality without draft pressure and at a lesser cost than assumed. Thus, most concerns raised thus far are unfounded or misplaced. In many instances, the debate has been factually incorrect; there has been a tendency to take issues out of context, and a failure to distinguish general manpower problems from those specifically related to the volunteer force.

This book was released on 1999-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The all-volunteer force, the historic norm in peacetime America, was reestablished in the U.S. on 30 June 1973, when induction authority expired. But never before had the U.S. attempted to field a standing Army in peacetime -- based on voluntary enlistments -- with the worldwide responsibilities that faced this force. Since the mid-1980s the ability of the armed forces to recruit and retain quality volunteers has not been seriously questioned. This book takes us through those years of transition, examining both the context in which the end of the draft occurred and the perspective which the Army's leaders brought to bear on the challenge they faced.
