National Guard (In Federal Status) and Reserve Mobilized as of November 30, 2005


           This week, the Army announced an increase in the number of reservists on
active duty in support of the partial mobilization, while the Air Force, Navy,
Coast Guard and Marine Corps had a decrease. The net collective result is 687 more
reservists mobilized than last week.

At any given time, services may mobilize some units and individuals while
demobilizing others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or
decrease. Total number currently on active duty in support of the partial
mobilization for the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 123,840; Navy Reserve,
4,173; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 9,081; Marine Corps Reserve,
7,042; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 441.  This brings the total National Guard and
Reserve personnel, who have been mobilized, to 144,577, including both units and
individual augmentees.
