520 3 _aIn the United States (U.S.) military, race and/or ethnicity serve as identifiable factors in recruitment, promotion, and retention. African Americans are overrepresented especially in the? Army and within the enlisted corps relative to their proportion within the civilian population. And while Hispanics constitute the fastest growing segment of the workforce as well as in society, they are underrepresented in the military.
520 3 _aThis study confirms the disparity of underrepresented minorities within the officer corps. It explored the recruiting and retention challenges with certain groups, the role of race and/or etchnicity, and what the U.S. military can do to attract underrepresented groups to its officer corps. As part of the discourse, the author also draws from similar expriences of militaries within the international community.
