The Secretary of Defense shall conduct a study that assesses— the efforts of the Department of Defense to recruit individuals to serve in the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps and the Senior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps over the period of 10 years preceding the date of the study; whether members of the Armed Forces who served in the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps are more or less likely than members who served in the Senior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps to achieve or receive recommendations for higher ranks; whether there is a correlation between race or ethnicity and the rank ultimately achieved by such members; and the feasibility of establishing a program to create a pathway for minorities into higher ranks within the military.
Not later than December 31, 2022, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional defense committee a report on the results of the study conducted under subsection (a).
