This report: (1) validates results of a previous survey of attitudes of wives of Navy enlisted personnel designed to determine impact of Navy use in dissemination of pertinent information to enlisted men's wives early in their association with the Navy. Survey data in this study were analyzed on the basis of wives' willingness for their husbands to reenlist and career status of husbands. Results verify the baseline data obtained in the earlier survey. Conclusions indicate that Navy wives tend to be positive influencers of retention. Interview data were combined with field experience to develop an approach for contacting Navy wives. (Author)
