Summary	Research suggests military recruits experience a high prevalence of fatigue which has important implications for training effectiveness, health, and safety. Prior studies used uncontrolled, descriptive study designs that were limited to correlations between sleep and academic test performance, and many of the recommendations for follow-on research have yet to be addressed. Applied research is warranted to determine the magnitude of effect of sleep scheduling interventions on overall training effectiveness, attrition, health, and safety. This research will implement a controlled sleep scheduling intervention in a military training environment to quantitatively assess the effects of the intervention on Recruit performance and cost effectiveness.
