Projecting Future Accessions to the Selected Reserve Components.

Abstract

This report presents projections of the number of non-prior service and prior service accessions to the selected reserve forces during the 1980s. The methodology used here improves upon prior projection techniques by recognizing the impacts which unemployment variations will have on future enlistment propensities. The accessions projections themselves are lower than those previously constructed. This suggests that the strength forecasts used by the Defense Department in their report on the future of the All-Volunteer Force may be too optimistic. (Author)
