Abstract

This report presents a review and analysis of the experience of the US Army in the mobilization of Reserve Component units in World War II, the Korean Conflict, the Berlin Crisis (1961) and Vietnam (1968). For each of the four mobilizations the following aspects are covered: organization and management in peacetime preceding the mobilization; and the situation of the Army National Guard and the US Army Reserve just prior to, during, and after the mobilization. The report draws conclusions and contains statistical data on strengths, lengths of training periods and other aspects germane to mobilization experience.
