National Manpower Inventory. Volume 1. Main Text

Abstract

This report on the National Manpower Inventory (NMI) is in three volumes. Volume I describes (1) the major inputs to the NMI and adjustments of the data made to meet NMI goals more directly; (2) the operational NMI model that was developed and its potential uses; and (3) some limitations inherent in the NMI data. Volume II provides technical documentation for the report, and Volume III is a user's guide to the software for the model. The purpose of the NMI is to determine the supply of civilians with skills relevant to the military so as to enhance the military's recruiting and retention efforts and to aid in mobilization planning.
