Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States has responded to recent changes in the international political scene by beginning to reduce military forces. As forces are reduced, questions arise about their structure, particularly the balance between reserve and active forces. Active Component (AC) forces can respond on short notice but are expensive; reserve forces are more economical but tend to be less ready and would take more time to deploy. Vigorous debate has ensued about the share of the future Army force structure that should be accorded to each type of force. That debate frequently centers on the responsiveness of the reserve forces and on the time required to train reserve combat elements before deployment. This report estimates how long it takes Reserve Component (RC) combat forces to prepare for deployment to a wartime theater. It draws on four main sources of information: (1) Information on the train-up process of the three National Guard round-out brigades that were activated for service in Operation Desert Shield/Storm; (2) Analyses and projections of RC training times made by the Department of the Army Inspector General; (3) Training plans followed by AC units during peacetime to sustain readiness; and (4) An extensive series of interviews with both AC and RC personnel and observations of the 1992 summer Annual Training cycle for National Guard brigades. The analysis first defines 12 post-mobilization activities that RC combat units must complete following mobilization. It then estimates the time needed for the 12 activities under three scenarios (optimistic, intermediate, and pessimistic) that vary in assumptions about future RC peacetime training proficiency. The report finds that the optimistic case will require 79 days, the intermediate case 104 days, and the pessimistic case 128 days. These estimates assume that leadership can complete its training in parallel with troop training and that adequate training support from the AC will be available. (11 tables, 17 refs.).

This book was released on 1992 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents RAND research into the time it takes Reserve Component (RC) Support units (e.g., transportation personnel, engineers, military police, artillery personnel) to mobilize and prepare for deployment. The analyses are based on empirical data from 606 units that were called to duty during the Persian Gulf War in Operation Desert Shield (ODS). They provide a systematic method for estimating the post-mobilization preparation times of diverse types of support units. The analysis shows that the times depend on the unit's branch, size (weight of equipment), and mode of transportation (air or sea). Units deploying by air can be ready very quickly (8 to 25 days from call-up to the point when they are ready to load equipment for overseas shipment). Units deploying by sea take longer to prepare (typically 30 days, but up to 10 days more for heavy artillery units), but have more flexibility because they can continue some training while their equipment is in transit to the theater. The report illustrates how the results can make large differences in Active Reserve allocation decisions. The methodology, which was applied here to a notional Southwest Asia scenario, will allow defense planners to determine whether particular types of RC units can be available in time to respond to future contingencies. Section 2 provides an overview of ODS from the perspective of this study and describes the mobilization process followed by a typical RC unit in preparing for that operation. Section 3 describes the database used to support the quantitative analysis of the preparation times. Section 4 presents that analysis for units deploying by air and sea. Section 5 offers an example illustrating how the approach used here can help determine the division of support units between the Active and Reserve Components. The final section offers conclusions.

Book Synopsis Planning for Post-Mobilization Training and Validation by : Wesley A. Beal
Download or read book Planning for Post-Mobilization Training and Validation written by Wesley A. Beal and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are many management systems supporting planning data for post-mobilization requirements, the installations designated to receive the Reserve Component forces do not have a common system to identify the training status and needs of the units upon arrival. Further, the Installation Commander has the responsibility for validating the combat readiness of these units prior to deployment. The guidance and policy in this critical area is not consistent among the various commands involved. The growing interest in mobilization results from the increased US reliance on the Reserve Components (RC) for the execution of any major war plan. Although the USAR and the ARNG may be able to perform their wartime mission, these forces must be able to get to the theater, on schedule, with the proper training; and the CINC must know the combat status of the units. Crossleveling, existing systems to identify the numbers of equipment and personnel; increases the combat readiness of the deploying units. However, a subjective evaluation is required in order to determine the training status and validate the units. This paper reviews post-mobilization planning systems at the installation level and proposes that the US Army develop a comprehensive system for determining the post-mobilization training requirements of a Reserve Component unit, and for validating combat readiness prior to deployment.

Book excerpt: In the continuing effort to maintain a ready force and honor the United States commitments throughout the world, in 1993 the Chief of Staff of the Army directed a test of the use of Reserve Component forces for the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) peacekeeping mission in the Sinai. A battalion composed of 80% RC individual volunteers and 20% Active Component soldiers was activated, trained and deployed as the 28th MFO rotation to the Sinai (Jan-Jul 95). ARI conducted an assessment of personnel and training issues using performance, interview and survey data. The four research questions and their findings are as follows. (1) Personnel: Who volunteered and why? What, if any, changes should be made to the volunteer screening process? (2) Family Support: How well did the family support system work? What was the impact of Sinai service on the family and civilian lives of volunteers? (3) Training/Performance: What are the unique and minimal training requirements? Did the training process produce a cohesive unit that could perform the mission? (4) Impact on the 29th ID(L): What is the impact on the ARYG units that sent volunteers, both during the deployment and post-deployment? Recommendations for future deployments are discussed in the text. ARI will continue to assess the impact of the deployment and post-redeployment re-entry on National Guard soldier commitment/retention, marital stability and financial well-being through October 1997. Cost analyses are not included in the ARI portion of the MFO assessment.

Book excerpt: "This report has one primary objective -- to retain and perhaps increase the Active Army's combat maneuver elements despite declining appropriations and end strength. The author builds a case for his alternative force structure by using the cyclical nature of the Army's history in the 20th century and the lessons learned in Operation Desert Shield/Storm. His analysis leads to a new force generation model of a two, not three, component 21st century Total Force - a Federal Army and a militia (the National Guard). The Federal Army is structured to perform forward presence, contingency operations and support base missions. It relies heavily on an integration of U.S. Army Reserve units and individuals in primarily support roles with additional domestic infrastructure missions. The National Guard maintains its combat maneuver structure, but has a reinforcing and reconstitution mission thus allowing it time to conduct post-mobilization training and concentrate on its state missions in peacetime."--Foreword

Book Synopsis Postmobilization Training Resource Requirements by : Thomas F. Lippiatt
Download or read book Postmobilization Training Resource Requirements written by Thomas F. Lippiatt and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1996 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report analyzes the training resources needed for future postmobilization training of combat brigades in the Army National Guard. It lays out a detailed 102-day postmobilization model for an "enhanced readiness" heavy brigade, seeking to minimize train-up time by executing many activities in parallel. It then analyzes the key resources required (active trainers, gunnery and maneuver sites, and Opposing Force personnel) to prepare the brigades for deployment, under various options involving multiple training sites. It concludes that under current plans, the Army will have sufficient training personnel and other resources to run three training sites simultaneously, assuming that the National Guard can provide an Opposing Force, training support personnel, and garrison support for collective training sites. The sites would also need some equipment enhancements, such as additional MILES laser training systems and visual modification of tracked vehicles. This would produce as many as three trained brigades as early as 108 days after mobilization. To run more sites (and hence produce more brigades during the early phases of a deployment), the Army would need more active training personnel to oversee training and to provide OPFOR cadres at the extra sites.
Book Synopsis Reserve Component Personnel Issues by : Lawrence Kapp
Download or read book Reserve Component Personnel Issues written by Lawrence Kapp and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term ¿Reserve Component¿ is used to refer collectively to the seven individual reserve components of the armed forces: the Army Nat. Guard (NG), the Army Reserve, the Navy Reserve, the Marine Corps Reserve, the Air NG, the Air Force Reserve, and the Coast Guard Reserve. These reserve components ¿provide trained units and qualified persons available for active duty in the armed forces.¿ Since 1990, reservists have been involuntarily activated six times, incl. two large-scale mobilizations for the Persian Gulf War and in the aftermath of 9/11. This increasing use of the reserves has led to interest in funding, equipment, and personnel policy. This report provides an overview of key reserve component personnel issues. This is a print on demand report.

Download or read book Are the 'Minute Men' Fast Enough? A Historical Look at Pre- and Post- Mobilization Training written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By January 1, 1991 over two hundred thousand Reserve and National Guard soldiers had been mobilized in support of Operation Desert Shield (and eventually Desert Storm) in the Persian Gulf War. Included in this mobilization were three National Guard combat brigades. The time between notification and deployment to combat of our reserve forces has varied a great deal throughout our country's history. There is a great deal of argument in government as well as in the Army itself as to the ability of combat, combat support, and combat service support reserve units to move rapidly from a peace time training status to commitment in combat. This study reviews the large scale reserve and national guard mobilizations from World War II to present. The study clarifies some of the variables which affect training time and focuses on the time between notification and actual commitment to combat. Because call ups in World War II, Korea, Berlin (1961), and Vietnam were extensive, the author has concentrated on Pacific bound units from each war. The Pacific is an area of special importance as the U.S. national interests begin to focus less on Europe and more on our major trading partners in the Pacific Rim. Each section or conflict is followed by a lesson learned summary and tied to the following conflict. The entire study is brought to a close with conclusions and recommendations for future training and employment of reserve components.

Download or read book Alternative Approaches to Organizing, Training, and Assessing Army and Marine Corps Units. Part 2. The Reserve Component written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study comprises two parts. Part I develops alternative approaches to organizing the active component of the Army and Marine Corps in the face of anticipated budget cuts. Part II develops alternative ways of organizing, manning, and training reserve component combat forces. Part I: One way to improve training readiness in active component units is to change Army and Marine Corps policies and keep people together in units longer. The Unit Stability Program is designed to achieve that goal. Ready Standby Organization provides a way for the Army and Marine Corps to preserve active component force structure and training readiness in the face of budget cuts. Part II: The training readiness of reserve component combat maneuver units can be improved and their post-mobilization deployment times can be reduced. This will allow them to contribute more effectively to a short warning wartime scenario. Reserve readiness can be improved even further by improving simulator training of reserve units, especially in the key areas of battalion and brigade operations.
