Total Force Approach to Security Cooperation: Can the Army's Readiness Be Improved by Delegating Security Corporation to the Army Reserves?

Abstract

The Army's engagement in the protracted Global War on Terror over the last 16 years exacerbated by fiscal uncertainty has led to depleted readiness levels all while the Global threat environment becomes more volatile. As the Army pivots its focus to building the forces and capabilities to decisively defeat a near-peer adversary in a major conflict, it must delegate majority of its security corporation engagements to the Army Reserves to alleviate mission fatigue and rapidly rebuild its readiness, effectively manage the complex global security threat and provide the Army Reserves a mission-set that it is adequately qualified for.
