 BILLS TO DENY VETERANS' BENEFITS TO CERTAIN FORMER SERVICEM




     Mr. Chairman, Members of the Committee, it is a pleasure

to appear before you today to discuss our report High Cost

of Military Attrition Can Be Reduced, issued to the Congress

on February 16, 1979 and to comment on bills which provide that

veterans' benefits shall be available only to those who complete

their initial obligated tour _f duty,

     At thef   e    fenator Harry F. Byrd, Jr., we made a

study to determine the total costs associated wit first-term

attrition--those military members separated before completing

their initial enlistments. Attrition is not only costly in

terms of recruiting and training new personnel but also for

benefits available to servicemen after discharge.
