PROGRESS WAS REPORTED ON AN ANALYTICAL SURVEY EFFORT OF THE HISTORICAL IMPLICATIONS OF OCCUPATIONAL CROSSOVER AND MOBILITY BETWEEN MILITARY AND CIVILIAN LIFE. TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS WERE DRAWN ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE U.S. MILITARY SERVICE PROGRAM FOR (1) OFFERING TRAINING IN INTERESTING AND TRANSFERABLE JOB SKILLS AND (2) PROVIDING GOVERNMENT-FINANCED PUBLIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. LAW ENFORCEMENT AND HEALTH SERVICE OCCUPATIONS WERE DESCRIBED AS TWO OF THE MANY POTENTIAL AREAS WHERE OCCUPATIONAL CROSSOVER COULD BE EFFECTED. (JH)
