Integrating Active and Reserve Component Staff Organizations
Abstract
The existence of separate active and reserve components of the U.S. military dates back to the founding of the nation, and both components are mentioned in the Constitution.1 Debates about the roles of the components, their relationships, and the appropriate degree of integration between them date back just as far.2 Various groups and individuals, both within and outside of the federal government, have proposed merging or otherwise integrating active component (AC) and reserve component (RC) forces during recent decades, dating back to at least 1947.3
