An Application of the SRS/RG in Determining Enlisted Attrition Rates in the USMC.

Abstract

The Statistical Retrieval System and Rate Generator (SRS/RG) is an automated data system that has been designed and programmed by the Program in Logistics staff of The George Washington University. The heart of the SRS/RG is a history file that covers the entire Marine Corps. This file is composed of variable length records and each record contains background information on one Marine. The purpose of this paper is to describe an application of the SRS/RG in determining average monthly attrition rates broken down by location, job, and grade. More generally, the SRS/RG can be used to determine essentially any kind of USMC personnel rate. (Author)
