We are using a 50% retention model right now, same as used by Ranger Regiment and SEALs for our first termers. From talking to guys in the filed that seems accurate as a lot of these 18Xs are choosing to ETS despite level 3-4 bonuses.

Good to know.
That simulataneously saddens and surprises me. They made it through one of the toughest selection and training courses in the world, served with the best brothers you could ask for, and yet choose to separate. Love to see a good survey on the reasons for leaving.
Could be the war, but I will be interested to see how many come back either to AD or join the Guard.
