Training, Education, Assignments: Does USAR AGR Officer System Manage It?

Abstract

With the United States Army Reserve switching from a strategic reserve mission to an operational reserve mission, and the operational tempo increasing for the foreseeable future, does the United States Army Reserve (USAR) Active Guard Reserve (AGR) program educate, train and assign its officers in accordance with Review of Education, Training and Assignments for Leaders (RETAL) and, A Leader Development Strategy for a 21st century Army (ALDS)? This paper will state a concise view of the USAR AGR program in terms of its original and current missions. Then, how the AGR program currently trains educates and assigns AGR's will be examined, as well as whether this process is aligned with Active Army educational and training requirements and supports its new mission. This analysis will identify whether the current changes in the AGR program are sufficient or if further change is required, and if so recommend additional changes.
