           The Department of Defense announced today recruiting and retention statistics for the active and reserve components for fiscal 2013, through June.

            Active Component.

            Recruiting.  All four active services met or exceeded their numerical accession goals for fiscal 2013, through June.

           Retention. The Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps exhibited strong retention numbers for the ninth month of fiscal 2013. The Navy exhibited strong retention numbers in the mid-career and career categories. However, the Navy's achievement of 89 percent in the initial category relates to reduced accessions from four to six years ago.
