NOTE: 2001-2013 enlisted totals include "cadets-midshipmen" so officer+enlisted=total. This may not be the correct assumption, but the historical tables only have "officer" and "enlisted" totals.

These data are intended to be the universe of individual enlisted applicants to the US military from 1990-2006, obtained through FOIA request from the Defense Manpower Data Center. Separate files exist for applicants, contracts, and accessions. Individuals are identified only by ZIP code, with no persistent identifier across stage of enlistment, so individuals cannot be perfectly tracked across enlistment stage.

Purpose - The purpose of this dataset is to provide comprehensive and detailed information on 59 US military male citizens who have been charged with acts related to terrorism. This dataset aims to support researchers in understanding the profiles, backgrounds, and circumstances of these individuals, contributing to the broader field of counter-terrorism studies and policy-making. This dataset is intended to be a valuable resource for researchers, analysts, and policymakers interested in the intersection of military service and terrorism. By providing detailed and structured information, it aims to facilitate in-depth analysis and foster a better understanding of the factors contributing to terrorism among military personnel. Nature - This dataset is an Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) compilation, which includes publicly available information on the individuals in question. The data has been collected from various open sources, ensuring that it is accessible and verifiable. The dataset covers a wide range of variables, providing a multi-faceted view of each individual's background, military service, personal life, and criminal activities. Scope - The dataset includes 51 variables for each individual, covering aspects such as personal information, military background, criminal activities, and other relevant details. The variables are as follows: Name Partners Gender Military Branch Current military status Officer/Enlisted/Civilian MOS (Job) Rank Discharge Status WAR Service Time Convert to Islam? (Yes, No, Born, Unknown) Age at time of crime City State Arrested/Charged/Convicted (date) Month of Crime Day of Crime Year of Crime Race Citizenship Parent's Birth Country Marital Status (0 = Single, 1 = Married, D = Divorced, E = Engaged) Children Allegiance Domestic or International Group Anwar Al-Awlaki Attended terrorist training camp College University Degree Occupation Social Class Mental Health Illness Weapons Kill/Injure Sentence Special Recognition Involved Violence FBI (Undercover) Prison (1 = Yes, 0 = No) Prison City Prison State Prison Security Level Date Released Target Location Official Charges How Officials Were Notified Social Media

This dataset documents the records of mainly Black people incarcerated in the Tennessee State Penitentiary in the period directly before, during, and after the Civil War, from 1850-1870. It includes a staggering amount of formerly enslaved Civil War soldiers and veterans who had enlisted in the segregated regiments of the United States Military, the U.S.C.T. This demographic information of over 1,400 inmates incarcerated in an occupied border state allows us to examine trends, patterns, and relationships that speak to the historic ties between the US military and the TN State Penitentiary, and more broadly, the role of enslavement’s legacies in the development of punitive federal systems. Further analysis of this dataset reveals the genesis of many modern trends in incarceration and law. The dataset of this article and its historiographical implications will be of interest to scholars who study the regional dynamics of antebellum and post-Civil War prison systems, convict leasing and the development of the modern carceral state, Black resistance in the forms of fugitivity and participation in the Civil War, and pre-war era incarceration of free Black men and women and non-Black people convicted of crimes related to enslavement.
