Abstract:

Concern exists regarding the gap between the military, its civilian leaders, and society, and the importance of achieving diversity among the military leadership that is representative of the soldiers they lead and the nation they serve. Civilian-military relations and diversity, which usually appear to be two distinct and separate topics, are interrelated. Failure to address them will negatively impact the militarys ability to sustain a high quality force capable of meeting the nations security requirements. This monograph examines the correlations between military diversity and the civilian-military relations of the United States.
