Description
Summary:Minutemen! Citizen-soldiers. Weekend warriors. Over the past thirty years reservists have become increasingly vital members of America's total employed military capabilities. Certainly following the September 11 terrorist attacks there has been a significant activation of elements of the Reserve Components (RC) to support both domestic and overseas national security requirements. Accurate and realistic portrayal of RC processes, forces and capabilities in analytical, educational, and training, events thus is critical to meeting U.S. national security needs as well as to developing valid approaches to military transformation in the 21st century. Ensuring that accuracy and realism was the primary purpose of the Role of the Army National Guard and Army Reserve in Army Exercises workshop conducted at the Collins Center for Strategic Leadership from 23-26 September 2002.
