Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to examine the impact of military experience upon the post-service lives of low aptitude men. The data were collected by interview on a set of 477 Army separatees and 477 non-veterans who were matched by race, educational level, age, geographic location, and were within a narrow AFQT range. The literature concerning the theoretical post-service effects of military service was reviewed. Also, the results of a number of empirical studies dealing with effects of military service upon post-service economic status were examined. (Modified author abstract).
Book Synopsis Army School Training Performance of EM Scoring Low on AFQT (U) by : William H. Helme

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the Army's need to attain optimal use of manpower skills and aptitudes, the New Classification Techniques Task is engaged in a continuing series of studies to develop increasingly accurate and differentiated measures of individual potential. One objective of the Task is to determine the extent to which men of low or low average general ability can be successfully trained in Army school courses. Studies to evaluate Army classification tests as predictors of success in MOS training included enlisted men admitted from 1953-1957 whose AFQT scores were below current enlistment standards. From available data on 48 courses, estimates were made of the expected success in training of enlisted men in AFQT category IV (10th to 30th percentile) and in lower category III (31st to 49th percentile). Substantial numbers of AFQT category IV enlisted men could successfully complete MOS training courses of moderate or low difficulty level. However, supplementary aptitude area prerequisites are essential to assure selection of men who have sufficient probability of success in a given course to keep attrition at permissible levels--usually under 10 percent. For the more difficult courses, failure rates of category IV men were estimated as generally exceeding acceptable levels, even in courses for which the men had attained the requisite 90 or 100 aptitude area scores.

Download or read book Assessing Fitness for Military Enlistment written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-02-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) faces short-term and long-term challenges in selecting and recruiting an enlisted force to meet personnel requirements associated with diverse and changing missions. The DoD has established standards for aptitudes/abilities, medical conditions, and physical fitness to be used in selecting recruits who are most likely to succeed in their jobs and complete the first term of service (generally 36 months). In 1999, the Committee on the Youth Population and Military Recruitment was established by the National Research Council (NRC) in response to a request from the DoD. One focus of the committee's work was to examine trends in the youth population relative to the needs of the military and the standards used to screen applicants to meet these needs. When the committee began its work in 1999, the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force had recently experienced recruiting shortfalls. By the early 2000s, all the Services were meeting their goals; however, in the first half of calendar year 2005, both the Army and the Marine Corps experienced recruiting difficulties and, in some months, shortfalls. When recruiting goals are not being met, scientific guidance is needed to inform policy decisions regarding the advisability of lowering standards and the impact of any change on training time and cost, job performance, attrition, and the health of the force. Assessing Fitness for Military Enlistment examines the current physical, medical, and mental health standards for military enlistment in light of (1) trends in the physical condition of the youth population; (2) medical advances for treating certain conditions, as well as knowledge of the typical course of chronic conditions as young people reach adulthood; (3) the role of basic training in physical conditioning; (4) the physical demands and working conditions of various jobs in today's military services; and (5) the measures that are used by the Services to characterize an individual's physical condition. The focus is on the enlistment of 18- to 24-year-olds and their first term of service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To provide information about the performance and characteristics of effective and ineffective marginal personnel in the Army, a study has been made of approximately 1800 men with experience ranging up to 20 years in five MOSs (11E, Armor Crewman; 63C, General Vehicle Repairman; 76Y, Unit and Organizational Supply Specialist; 91B, Medical Specialist; 94B, Cook). The sample included a comparison group of men in the same jobs but coming from the upper (non-marginal) part of the AFQT distribution. Performance was measured by intensive job sample tests, job knowledge tests, and supervisor ratings. Information about background, personal characteristics, and military experiences was obtained through biographical questionnaires, a battery of published and experimental tests, and Army records. The report, the first in a series, describes the rationale, research design, and general chronology of research events in the study. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overseeing the Vietnam War and contending with these complex policy issues taxed even McNamara's enormous energy and brilliant intellect as he struggled to manage DoD programs. His long-cherished cost-cutting programs fell by the wayside; his favored weapons systems were swept aside; his committed efforts to limit strategic arms faltered; and his reputation was permanently tarnished. McNamara, Clifford and the Burdens of Vietnam highlights the interaction of McNamara and Clifford with the White House, Congress, the JCS, the Department of State, and other federal agencies involved in policy formulation. The two secretaries increasingly found that the cost of winning the war became a morally prohibitive as the price of losing.
