Abstract

The current concern with high-school dropouts may lead some officials in Washington to consider afresh the disquieting profile of the cold war general infantry (GI) drawn by the Bradley Commission in 1954-55. Since the day the U.S. President Dwight David Eisenhower declared the Korean emergency to be over, all GI education and training benefits came to an end. Not much is known about the several million men who have been discharged from the Armed Forces since that date. The Bradley Commission Report projected a disturbing future for them which, in turn, partly explain the present unemployment dilemma.
