Information About

United States Army Reserve




The United States Army Reserve is the federal Reserve Force of the United States Army . Together, the Army Reserve and the Army National Guard constitute the Reserve Components of the US Army.

Army Reserve soldiers may be soldiers who left the active Army after a period of service, or they may have enlisted directly into the Reserve. Reserve soldiers generally perform training or service one weekend per month (inactive duty for training) and for two continuous weeks at some time during the year (annual training). Many reserve soldiers are organized into Army Reserve units, while others serve to augment active Army units.
The Army Reserve is composed of 246,000 soldiers.
