This thesis describes the structure and training pipeline
of the Electronics Technician rating in the Navy.
Through an analysis of a cohort of 6,309 Electronics
Technicians who enlisted between 1 Sept 197 6, and 31 Dec
1978, this thesis demonstrates significant differences
between personnel who enlisted in Nuclear Field, Advanced
Electronics Field and other enlistment programs available
during this time period. Through the use of discriminant
analysis, three models for predicting potential enlistment
success are developed from measures such as the Armed
Services Vocational Aptitude subtests, education, age,
marital status, enlistment waivers, and months of participation
in the Delayed Entry Program administered by the
Navy Recruiting Command.
