THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1998
[[Page 297]]
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE--MILITARY
MILITARY PERSONNEL
ACTIVE FORCES
These appropriations finance the personnel costs of the active duty
forces of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force. Changes in
financial requirements are primarily related to military personnel
strengths. In addition, these appropriations finance the future
retirement benefits of the current active forces. While most of the
entitlements financed by these appropriations are set by statute, the
estimates reflect continuing efforts to improve management, including
implementation of audit recommendations, improved management of military
travel, and prudent use of bonus programs, and other pay programs.
Included in the 1998 request is funding for a 2.8% pay raise. This
raise will help ensure that military compensation remains attractive and
competitive with private sector pay and that the military services
continue to attract and retain highly qualified people. Illustrative of
the high quality of service members is their educational achievements.
Over 96% of the individuals recruited into the military services in 1996
were high school graduates compared to 75% of the youth of the same age
in the general population. Over 97% of personnel entering the services
as commissioned officers are college graduates. Over 42% of the officers
on active duty have advanced college degrees compared to less than 7% in
the general population.
The numbers of active duty military personnel provided for are shown
in the following table.
