Report of a Field Trip to Louisiana, September 9-12, 1976 - Reserve Forces Policy Board (RFPB).

Abstract

A Reserve Forces Policy Board group of 14 persons visited units and installations of all seven Reserve Components in Louisiana. The following are among the observations made: Reserve components need close working relationships with the Active Force; Total Force Policy must be explained to personnel of all components; and Command leadership is stronger at 0-6/0-5 command level than at lower levels. Items to be considered for future study are: Retention problems which appear to be greater than recruitment problems; Maintaining strength--a major problem but proper equipment is also needed to attain readiness; Problems of training for readiness; and Mutual support among Reserve Components and standardization in the area of recruiting standards need to be monitored.
