Questions by Chiefs of Field Offices concerning reserve status and participation continue to be raised, indicating that our capabilities and limitations in this area aro not generally known to the people who are directly affected, The following outl...Lne is intended to correct prevalent misunderstandings. t ona in the This increased somewhat by individuals who apply to the for a mobilisation designation, This to train with an Army unit where they are located, earn promotion and retirement credits.

Tee-week active duty tours also are governed largely by the Army reserve training budget, and cannot be guaranteed to every individual who wants this duty. Pe has to apply for duty through the Military District in which he lives. If the district has funds, and approves, he gets two weeks of duty, either with troops, in a school t.
