Manning the Army Next (AAN) Force: Critical Examination of the Officer Accessions System

Abstract

The Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), the United States Military Academy (USMA) and the Officer Candidate School (OCS) are pivotal to the maintenance of the Army's officer corps. These sources are increasingly being challenged by resource constraints, availability of qualified applicants, and rapid change in the Army. The research presented in this paper examines the Army's educational officer pre-commissioning sources and their adequacy to meet the needs of the Army in the future.
