Marital Status In FY 2001, the proportion of Selected Reserve officer accessions
and officers who were married was higher than for enlisted members.
As in the Active Components, more males were married than females. Table 6.4 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 (59 percent) is lower than for the comparable married, female,
civilian college graduate labor force (62 percent).
