ACTIVE COMPONENT ENLISTED FORCE At the end of Fiscal Year 2000, enlisted force end-strength was virtually the same as FY 1999 at 1.15 million. Enlisted end-strength dropped each year between FYs 1987 and 1999. The Active Component counted 1.85 million enlisted members in FY 1987, more than in any year since FY 1974. End-strength reached a low point in FY 1999 (1.151 million) with a marginal increase to 1.154 million in FY 2000. Figure 3.1 displays trend lines by Service for the active duty enlisted force size since FY 1973, and Appendix Table D-15 provides end-strength data by year and by Service for FYs 1964 and 1973 through 2000.
