Are there demographics for retirees by MOS/branch?

With the latest possible changes to military retirement, I've been in several debates lately where someone thinks a particular MOS has more or less representation at hitting the 20 year mark either by a ratio of the force or raw numbers. Combat arms MOSs would appear to be harder on the body with possibly more medical retirements and ETSs, but as a community they are larger with more opportunities for advancement than other MOSs. I've never seen any hard data to go one way or the other. Are there numbers out there for how different MOSs make it to retirement?

Sir,
The "simple" way to calculate it would be by E9 (and E8, E7) representation of MOS. They should give you a good idea of the rest. If you have X E9 per field, that gives you a baseline.
From there, you figure out average TIS to pick up E7 for the feeders to that E9. If it's 14 years (guess) that's one thing, if it's 18 years they have a higher chance, 12 years is lower.
As an example.. Using the USMC E7 selection board info.

Interesting question MAJ (Join to see). I don't think I've ever come across a breakdown of retirement by MOS. I will be following this thread ... thanks for posting the question!
