Description
Summary:Discusses the Army Reserve's role in current operations and what is required to provide needed capabilities to combatant commanders on a continuous basis. The Army Reserve has implemented an Army-wide system to establish a training, mobilization and deployment model of predictability for commanders and Soldiers called Army Force Generation, or ARFORGEN. To improve force structure, the Army Reserve is deactivating its legacy structure of Regional Readiness Commands (RRCs) and Regional Readiness Groups (RRGs) and activating Operations and Functional (O&F) Commands. Finally, to improve recruiting and retention the Army Reserve has increased its incentives, such as referral bonuses, tuition assistance, retirement benefits and better health care.
