Description
VET90X95 indicates whether persons were engaged in active-duty military service in the armed forces of the United States between August 1990 and March 1995 (including the Persian Gulf War). It includes those on active duty in the United States Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard during this period, and it excludes those in the National Guard and military Reserves, unless they were called to active duty.
Codes and Frequencies
Comparability
This variable is only available for the 2000 census (U.S. and Puerto Rico samples) and the 2000-2002 ACS. The 2003-2004 ACS merges this variable and VET95X00 into one variable (VET90X01).
The 2000 census and the ACS defined persons currently in the armed forces as veterans. So, too, did the 1990 census, but earlier censuses did not.
Universe
- 2000: Persons age 17+.
- ACS: Persons age 17+, currently or formerly in the armed forces.
