Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the civilian employment experiences of USMA graduates from the Classes of 1920-1949. Data were gathered by means of a questionnaire mailed in the Spring of 1970 and information was obtained and reported on for two major areas: (1) ease of transition from military to civilian employment; and (2) civilian job characteristics and success. In general the major finding in regard to (1) was that most graduates feel that their education and training received at the Military Academy and later as officers have strong carry-over effects to their civilian jobs. In regard to (2) the most relevant findings were that USMA graduates had been able to find employment in a wide variety of jobs, most receive fine salaries and consider themselves successful in civilian life.
