5. This
creates
a
more
efficient,
more
stable
military
Exposing
aspirants
to
recruiters
who
share
their
interests
and
career
goals
means
the
aspirant
has
a
clear
idea
of
what
his
or
her
career
path
will
be,
and
will
know
what’s
expected.
People
who
like
their
careers
are
a
better
investment.
They’re
more
likely
to
serve
their
full
term,
and
they
re-‐enlist
at
a
higher
rate.
Longer
service
reduces
costs.
Reducing
early
withdrawal
by

would
save
the
DOD
$2.5
