Guard and Reserve Need More Days To Train
The Army National Guard and Army Reserve need more than 39 days of training a year in order to truly be an operational force, the commanding general of First Army said Tuesday.
“The term ‘operational reserve’ is tossed around quite a bit, and I’m not sure we understand what that means,” said Lt. Gen. Michael Tucker in an interview with Army Times. “I firmly believe that if we’re going to maintain the reserve component as an operational reserve, we’re going to have to give them more days to train.”
