Navy bounces back, surpasses recruiting goals for Fiscal Year 2024<\/h3>\n

By Diana Stancy<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Navy surpassed its recruiting goals for fiscal year 2024 after failing to hit its accession targets for the first time ever last year.<\/p>\n

The Navy has lagged behind the other services in attracting new recruits, and at one point projected it would miss its recruiting targets by roughly 6,700 for fiscal 2024, which ended Monday.<\/p>\n

But the service reported this week that it brought in a total of 40,978 new recruits in FY24 \u2013 up from its goal of 40,600 new sailors.<\/p>\n

The feat comes with a caveat, as a crush of last-minute enlistments meant the Navy couldn\u2019t get about 5,000 of its new recruits into basic training by the end of fiscal 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited that even though we can\u2019t get everybody that we\u2019ve signed up right now through boot camp by the end of this month, we now have a delayed entry pool for the beginning of next year, which will really prime the pump,\u201d Chief of Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti told The Associated Press in an interview last week.<\/p>\n

The Navy attributes this year\u2019s success to \u201cdata-driven decision-making,\u201d cutting down the time to process medical waivers and \u201cexpanding opportunities.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Expanding opportunities for those who failed to complete High School or bother to earn a GED, more opportunities for “Cat 4” recruits- those scoring in the lower 30th percentile on the Armed Forces Qual Test- and increasing enlistment age to 41. With recruits like these it’s small wonder Big Navy very nearly got the numbers it needed. The 5K hard-chargers excluded this year but counted anyway? They will surely arrive at the local MEPS as agreed or Admiral Franchetti will be so disappointed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
