Reserve Component Manpower Readiness and Mobilization Policy. Volume 1. Based on the Colloquium on Mobilization with Special Emphasis on Guard and Reserve Components, 1-4 November 1983

Abstract

The purpose of this Colloquium was to foster the integration of scholarly research and academic disciplines with the theory and practice of military mobilization; to identify selected military mobilizations issues providing opportunities for both fruitful research and remedial actions; to enhance the visibility of operational factors pertaining to mobilization of Guard and Reserve forces; and to broaden the understanding that a combat ready reserve, supported by effective mobilization procedures, is an essential component of national defense, strategic deterrence, and NATO's capability to defeat an aggressor should deterrence fail. Reserve Component forces constitute approximately 50 percent of NATO's authorized wartime strength.
