REPORT TO THE (Nfl4
                                          14A R Jo 1976

Improving The Effectiveness

And Efficiency Of Recruiting



Department of Defense ,4C00oa5-


Recruiting costs increased from $430 million
in the last year of the draft to $508.1 million
during the first year of the all-volunteer force.
This report discusses the lack of central con-
trol for monitoring quality control, recruiter
malpractice, and fraudulent enlistment. As a
result, unqualified recruits slip through the
enlistment process, fail during training, and
receive early discharges, unnecessarily increas-
ing recruiting costs.

The Armed Forces Examining and Entrance
Stations are best suited to perform quality
controls over mental and medical examina-
tions, moral fitness, and enlistment paper-
work. They have been precluded from
independently monitoring these functions
because of subordination to recruiting
services, fragmented and incomplete proce-
dural controls, noncompatible recruiting
boundaries, and service administered mental
examinations. The Department of Defense has
taken and is taking action to correct these
problems.
