Abstract
Abstract : USAREC, which recruits for both the Regular Army and the Army Reserve, has missed the USAR recruiting objectives for the last five consecutive years (FY 1995-1999). Section 552 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000 directs the Secretary of the Army to conduct such a review, to include examining a possible course of corrective action, whether the responsibility for Army Reserve recruiting should be placed under the control of the Chief, Army Reserve (CAR). This Strategic Research Project reviewed the United States Army Reserve (USAR) recruiting performance by the United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) by analyzing the Reserve unit locations, recruiter surveys, and recruiter write-rates. Looking at the military eligible population of potential growth in this country, the author evaluates the locations of Army Reserve centers and Army National Guard armories. Using the Department of Defense recruiter surveys, the author ascertains recruiter performances and perspectives on issues related to recruiting. Finally, comparison of performances by Regular Army, Army Reserve, and Army National Guard recruiters are analyzed.
