UNIVERSITY STUDIO 115 COLLEGE MAIN 846-8019 Volunteer military force has rising dropout rate MUSIC MAN United Press International WASHINGTON — The Pentagon’s top man power expert says the all-volunteer force, which of ficials have called a success until now, has a dropout rate approaching 40 percent. LAKEVIEW CLUB Assistant Defense Secretary John White said at a news conference Tuesday the washout rate during first enlistments has risen considerably since the draft ended five years ago. Previously, defense officials used glowing terms to describe the all-volunteer system as a success. White’s disclosure was the first official statement of such a high washout rate. He said so far the military has been able to find the approximately 400,000 recruits needed each year to fill slots vacated by those who leave the service early and those who do not re-enlist. 3 Miles N. on Tabor Road Saturday Night: Tommy Overstreet & The Nashville Express From 9-1 p.m. STAMPEDE DANCE “This is a phenomenon peculiar to the all volunteer force,” White said. “There is a whole va riety of problems.” He said the population of 18-to 24-year-olds will shrink by 15 percent in the 1980s, and to meet manpower needs the Pentagon will have to decrease the dropout rate as well as double the number of enlisted women to about 200,000. Overall figures for all the services in the first two years of the volunteer force showed 36.4 percent of recruits failed to finish their enlistments, but offi cials said White was referring to Army rates, which were slightly higher. Ladies $1.00 All brands beer 40c Every Thursday Night Men $2.00 8-12 “We have to see whether or not a greater number of them can be kept and be useful,” White said of the washouts, who include large numbers given early discharges because of unsuitability or discipli nary problems, as well as others dropped because of low literacy, medical defects and hardship reasons. In 1973 and 74, Army dropout rates for non-high school graduates ranged from 49 to 52 percent and for graduates, from 22 to 27 percent. The overall losses reached 39.5 percent towards the end of those years. White said plans to raise the number of enlisted women to 11 percent of the total armed forces in the next five years from the current 5.5 percent does not include putting women in a combat role, al though some expansion in military jobs is planned.
