A CBO Paper: The Effects of Reserve Call-Ups on Civilian Employers
Abstract
The military reserves provide trained service members and units that are available for active military duty during peacetime and war. Over the past decade, the Department of Defense (DoD) has dramatically increased its reliance on the reserve forces, particularly since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The reserves are integral to current operations-of service members deployed in November 2004 in Iraq and Afghanistan, about 33 percent were reservists- and DoD foresees continued reliance on them.
