From the key findings: “Relative to fiscal year (FY) 2019, the Army increased end strength, decreased accessions, and increased retention. Although the number of enlistment contracts decreased, the quality of contracts increased (i.e., a greater proportion of enlistment contracts were signed by individuals who had a Tier 1 education credential and Armed Forces Qualification Test [AFQT] scores in Categories I–IIIA). The Army also relied more heavily on recruits with prior military service than it did in FY 2019.”
