This book was released on 2009 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to assess the relationships between MOS placement and retention of company grade officers. An officer data file from the Center of Naval Analyses is augmented with Total Force Data Warehouse data to create the primary analysis data file. The data set contained officer cohorts from 1994-1999 and 2001 to 2002, a total of 5,922 newly commissioned officers. Several five- and six-year multivariate retention models are estimated to test the sensitivity of the retention effect of MOS preferences and to determine if including prior enlisted Marines in the data affects the basic effects. The objective is to isolate the effects on junior officer retention of MOS placement outside of an officer's top three MOS preferences. The findings indicate that MOS placement has a strong negative effect on the retention of NROTC, PLC, and OCC graduates. Among demographic groups, black and Asian officers are more likely to retain than white officers. Significant differences in retention do not exist between men and women; however, when prior enlisted officers are included in the samples, the sizes of the key coefficients fall in magnitude. The findings for the six-year model indicate no significant effects of MOS placement, gender, or race, with and without prior enlistees, on the retention decision of officers who graduate from USNA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines factors which influence the retention of male, company-grade Marine Corps officers (grades O-1 to O-3) who are within their initial period of obligated service. Data used combined responses from the 1985 DoD Survey of Officer and Enlisted Personnel and the respondents' 1989 status from the officer master fine maintained by the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC). Logit regression was used to measure the relative importance of a broad range of factors for retention. These included: biographic and demographic characteristics, tenure data, perception of external job opportunities, and satisfaction with various aspects of military life. Results indicated that the individual's marital/dependent status, commissioning source, military occupational specialty, race, and satisfaction with specific intrinsic and extrinsic aspects of the military job are most important in predicting the retention behavior of junior Marine Corp officers with no less than 12 months of service and no more than seven and one-half years of active service. These findings can provide manpower planners with information to project and manage future retention levels of company-grade officers and to identify possible shortfalls in critical occupational specialties.
Book Synopsis The Effect of Graduate Education on the Retention and Promotion of Marine Corps Officers by : Gregory A. Branigan

This book was released on 2001-03-01 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyzes the factors associated with retention to the 0-5 promotion point and selection for promotion to 0-5. In particular, this thesis focuses on the economic returns to graduate education and specifically Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) education. In theory, the payoff to the Marine Corps is the increased productivity of the officer with a graduate degree. This thesis analyzes the differences in retention and promotion rates between officers with and without graduate degrees. Data from the FY1998 through FY2001 lieutenant colonel promotion boards and data for the corresponding accession cohorts, who entered the Marine Corps between FY1980 and FY1984 are merged with Automated Fitness Report System (AFRS) data. Nonparametric analysis and simple Probit techniques are used to estimate retention and promotion models. The results suggest that, in addition to other factors, graduate degrees from NPS and from sources other than NPS both have a positive effect on the retention and promotion of Marine officers. Several statistical techniques are applied to correct for potential biases due to self selection and sample selection. However, results from these techniques prove sensitive to slight changes in model specification and therefore, are not conclusive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyzed factors which influenced the retention of male, junior Marine Corps officers who were serving within their initial period of obligated service. A broad social science approach combining organizational and individual behavioral factors was used to model the turnover decision. A multivariate logistic regression model was estimated using these factors to determine their relative importance in explaining differences in the actual retention behavior of these officers. Subsequent models were then estimated to identify and explain differences in the factors affecting the retention between married and single personnel. Data for this study were drawn from a matched file of responses to the 1992 Department of Defense Survey of Officers and Enlisted Personnel and Their Spouses with 1996 follow-up retention information from the Defense Manpower Data Center's Master Loss File. The factors found to influence significantly the sample members' decisions to remain on active duty included: commissioning source; occupational specialty; deployment to Operation Desert Shield/Storm; satisfaction with various intrinsic aspects of life in the Marine Corps; concerns with the force drawdown; whether or not the officer had searched for civilian employment in the last twelve months; whether or not the officer believed that the skills he had acquired in the Marine Corps would be transferable to the civilian market; and the influence on the career decision of the officer's spouse. Finally, recommendations regarding future policy as well as areas for further related research were made.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to identify and evaluate factors that affect retention and promotion of mid-grade officers in the U.S. Marine Corps. The analysis includes evaluation of survival patterns to ten-years of commissioned service and promotion patterns to O-4 and O-5. The primary goal is to explain the effect of an officers2 primary military occupational specialty (PMOS) on retention and promotion. The Marine Corps Commissioned Officer Accession Career (MCCOAC) data file contains cohort information from FY 1980 through FY 1999 and includes 27,659 observations. Using data from the MCCOAC data file, logistic regression and Cox Proportional Hazard models are used to estimate the effects of an officer2s PMOS on survival and promotion patterns of Marine Corps officers. The findings indicate that an officers PMOS is significantly associated with whether an officer stays until 10 YCS or is promoted to O-4 or O-5. Logistic regression results show that pilot PMOSs are positively correlated with surviving until 10 YCS, but are negatively correlated with promotion to O-4, when compared to Infantry. The results also find that the remaining PMOSs are negatively correlated with whether and officer survives until 10 YCS, when compared to Infantry. In addition, only three PMOSs (0402, 7202, and 7523) are positively correlated with whether an officer is promoted to O-4 or O-5. Finally, the Cox Proportional Hazard results show the effect of having a particular PMOS or occupational field on the hazards of separation and promotion.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skill shortages are inherent to the current Marine Corps officer promotion system, which selects unrestricted officers regardless of Military Occupational Specialty (MOS). A system that would select either by functional areas or by MOS would be more successful in providing the most well-balanced force, while still maintaining Marine Corps ethos. In an attempt to alleviate skill shortages, manpower planners have cycled through various force-structuring tools over the years to provide a "quick-fix" to skills that have become critically short, while others exceeded their limits. Yet, these tools have not been very successful in sustaining a well-balanced force. The biggest concern in changing the current system is loss of Marine ethos and the production of a "techno-geek" Marine Corps. Skill shortages and a perceived career path will exist as long as there are promotion boards selecting officers from each grade, regardless of their MOS. Selection by MOS or by functional areas are the best options to alleviate critical skill shortages. This paper will discuss possible courses of action within the officer promotion selection system to resolve these manpower issues of critically short MOSs of the unrestricted field grade officer corps. Specifically, the paper will provide a historical review of the Marine Corps officer promotion system, the process of the current officer promotion system, and a better understanding of how skill shortages develop and protract. It also will provide some background on force-structuring tools and address why they are inadequate in solving skill shortages. Following an analysis of the Marine Corps restricted officer boards, enlisted boards, and the officer promotion systems of the sister services, recommendations will be made and discussed in an order based on importance determined by the author.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes the relationship between selection to major in the Marine Corps, and the survival of mid-grade officers to the promotion point of major, by investigating the effects of billet assignments. Specifically, this study looks at the influence of the percentage of time spent in the Fleet Marine Forces (FMF), the percentage of time spent in primary military occupation (PMOS) billet assignments, and the effect of having served in combat, recruiting, security forces, joint, and drill field duties. Models were formulated using groundwork established in previous promotion, retention, and attrition studies. Assignment variables were then introduced to the models. To account for officers' choice for continued service vice forced attrition, the sample was restricted to officers who had attained five years of service. Probit regression was used to find the influence of career assignments on the probability of selection; Heckman's correction was used to control for self-selection bias; and, Cox proportional hazard regression was used, utilizing the same assignment factors, to find the influence of assignments on the likelihood of attrition. The findings indicated that FMF and PMOS ratios above 60 percent had a negative effect on promotion and retention. Also indicated was that time spent outside the PMOS, in "B" billets, had a positive effect on retention. In a time of budgetary constraints, this information may provide assistance to personnel planners as an alternative to pecuniary measures used to maintain and shape the force.
