Abstract

BDM supported the collection and maintenance of data from various sources. Montgomery GI Bill Files were obtained and the needed REXX programs written to accomplish effective storage and retrieval of the data. Operation Transition files, to include Defense Outplacement Referral System (DORS) and Transition Bulletin Board (TBB) data were obtained and assistance provided to user and data souce communities to assure a steady and reliable flow of data. Data were collected from the Services using file transfers through the TBB for both DORS and TBB data. MGIB files were received and the USNPS and transferred to DMDC for storage and maintenance.
