Respondents are military service members and their families who accessed Military OneSource for support for an inquiry or issue and agreed to provide satisfaction feedback.

When outreach calls are made, respondents are interviewed and a staff person enters those responses into a feedback form. Respondents may also elect to complete feedback via an electronic form, which is emailed to the respondent. All respondents who contact Military OneSource are asked to provide feedback about their Military OneSource experience, though on average only about 1-2% of respondents provide feedback.
