Marital Status

In FY 2000, the proportion of Selected Reserve officer accessions and officers who were married was higher than for enlisted members (Table 6.4). As in the Active Component, more males were married than females. Appendix Table C-26 shows that the proportion of married male Selected Reserve officers (78 percent) is larger than the proportion of the male civilian college graduate labor force who are married (71 percent). The proportion of married female Selected Reserve officers (58 percent) is lower than for the comparable married, female, civilian college graduate labor force (61 percent).
