In pursuit of low personnel costs, the Marine Corps is unique in its commitment to high enlisted turnover which reduces aggregate experience, proficiency, and stability across the operating forces when compared to the other military services.

We reviewed officer professional military education to determine (1) how the services define professional military education, (2) where professional military education courses are conducted, (3) how many students participate in these courses, and (4) what are the costs associated with them. We have briefed your office on the results of our review. We agreed to expand our review and include various information on officer training activities, in addition to professional military education, performed by the services. This report presents the results of our work.
