The men and women who serve in uniform are at the core of U.S. military capability. This project looks at questions related to who is serving today, who will serve in the future, and how the nation can best attract them to join up, stay as long as needed, and leave when their services are no longer desired. The project includes work on the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of military recruits and service members; the changing characteristics of people the services need; and military pay and benefits.
