Reserve Component Round-Out of Light Infantry Divisions

Abstract

This monograph discusses the Army's decision to round-out light infantry divisions with reserve component personnel. The unique 'spectrum' of conflict requirements upon which the light infantry division force design and operational concept were based are reviewed. This review serves as the basis for an analysis of the capabilities of active component and reserve component mixed forces and the viability of the round-out concept to support the diverse missions assigned to light infantry divisions. Keywords: Deployment, Mobilization, Reserve component, Light infantry.
