Abstract
The nucleus of the United States of America is built on military service. The sacrifice our young men and women in uniform make for our country is like no other. With the conclusion of World War II came one of the most useful and deserving benefits our service members could ever earn, the G.I. Bill. This benefit gives members the opportunity to seek higher education in return for their service. Members who served in the military are allocated funds to pursue higher education upon their discharge from active-duty service. With the events of September 11, 2001, came a new generation of veterans, and education was once again on the forefront. With change comes the need for additional information and knowledge. Service members are provided with an immense amount of information throughout their careers. Some use this information to make life-changing decisions. This study focuses on how U.S. Air Force members, from recruit to retiree, retain information on their education benefits, in order to maximize their use.
