This qualitative longitudinal study analyzed retention climate issues of first term enlisted marines before and after September 11, 2001. The study identified retention climate issues as variables which have been shown in past academic research to have an effect on military turnover. Military retention climate issues have been exacerbated by the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT), which has placed additional strain on service members due to increased operational needs. The Marine Corps in particular has experienced profound increases in global commitments which create significant manpower strains, especially on first term enlisted marines. This study examined the extent to which the GWOT has had an effect on retention climate issues by analyzing retention data from 1999 to 2005. The analysis utilized data from DMDC surveys from 1999 to 2005. For 2001, data was compiled using a 2001 study by Walden University. Ten retention climate issues were then examined: compensation satisfaction, wartime job confidence, deployment tempo satisfaction, job satisfaction, military lifestyle satisfaction, military training satisfaction, off-duty education satisfaction, promotion tempo satisfaction, spousal support to reenlist, and the likelihood to reenlist. The results indicated that the majority of retention climate issues showed improvement in the post-9/11 period such as military lifestyle satisfaction, job satisfaction, training satisfaction, wartime job confidence, and off-duty education satisfaction. Others showed decreases, such as deployment tempo satisfaction and spousal support. Additionally, the primary research question showed that the overall likelihood to reenlist decreased in the post-9/11 period. The study theorized that the cause of this decrease may be due to extraneous variables such as private contractors, who offer similar jobs with greater pay and benefits.
