This report summarizes a series of studies from 1993 through 1995 of the attitudes of soldiers-in-training and their training cadre during squad- level, gender-integrated Basic Combat Training (BCT) for soldiers in Combat Support and Combat Service Support military occupational specialties. During each of the three phases, soldiers completed a pre-training and post-training questionnaire, and the training cadre completed a post-training questionnaire. A total of 3,963 soldiers and 277 training cadre were surveyed. Focus groups were conducted with all-male and/or all-female groups from each of the participating companies and with male and female training drill sergeants. Training performance and soldierization in a gender-integrated environment were more positive for female soldiers and as positive as single-gender training for male soldiers. Preparation of drill sergeants-especially training to work with and train female soldiers-is key to the success of gender-integrated BCT. Chain of command support is necessary for continued success of gender-integrated training.
