Selected Approaches for Maximizing Combat Arms Nonprior Service Accessions.

Abstract

The report is an anthology of six separate and distinct approaches to maximizing combat arms accessions. Each approach stands by itself as an independent effort. The six are: (1) Recruiting Advertising - an analysis of current practice and recommendations for future efforts; (2) The Challenge Pursuit Volunteer System - a program for providing attainable goals and incentives to attract and motivate enlistees throughout their enlistment; (3) Enlistment Options - an analysis of two proposed enlistment options; (4) Use of Women in the Combat Arms - an extensive and well documented analysis of the potential assets and liabilities associated with the use of women in the combat arms; (5) Social Science-Technology Approach to Recruiting - a detailed plan for a scientifically based program to increase the effectiveness of recruiting efforts; (6) The US Army Reserve Alternative - an analysis of Army Reserve recruiting.
