Manpower Management for Joint Specialty Officers: A Comparative Analysis

Abstract

This thesis investigates the development of Title IV of the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 and the Joint Specialty Officer (JSO) management policies mandated by the law. Individual service manpower management procedures for the nomination/selection for Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) and Joint Specialty Officer designation are presented and analyzed. The size and composition of the Joint Duty Assignment List (JDAL) is also presented and analyzed. The results indicate significant progress has been made towards fulfilling the Title IV requirements regarding JPME, JSO designation, and improving the quality and stability of officers assigned to Joint Duty Assignments.
