The report from Blue Star Families found some service members are passing up career-advancing moves because they don't want to relocate to certain cities.
Carlandra"CT" Moss, now retired, served 24 years in the Army. As a service member of color, she said she often had to make tough decisions, weighing the best interests of her family against the best interests of her military career.
“We had 46% who consider racial and ethnic discrimination when submitting base or installation preferences,” Akin said, adding that these decisions could have long term implications on their careers. Some of those who turned down relocation orders reported consequences in the form of unfair negative performance reviews or opportunities for career advancement that disappeared.
“This comprehensive analysis will not only identify the barriers that exist for minority service members, but also the root causes of such barriers so that leadership can take effective action,” Major Charlie Dietz said in a statement. “My son was racially profiled in our neighborhood where we lived — twice,” Moss said. “Once was from an undercover cop who didn't identify himself, and it got to a point where I had to make a decision.”
