                 ¶THE USE OF A PEACETIME GI BILL
             KSA7 RECRUITING AND RETENTION INCENTIVE


Mr. Chairman and Members .of the Committee:

     We appreciate the opportunity to appear before you again

today to discuss whether a peacetime GI Bill can overcome future

recruitment and retention problems in the most cost-effective

manner.  Specifically, you asked for our general assessment of

two bills pending before this committee:  S. 1747, a proposal to

essentially put in place now a new peacetime educational

assistance program which would automatically become effective

on October 1, 1987, but also could be implemented earlier  if the

President determined that certain conditions had been met and

reported those conditions to the specified committees, and S.

1873, a bill which would require the President to report on or

before July 1, 1987, on the need for a peacetime GI Bill to

assist in recruiting and retention.
