There is not much detail here but there is no stub tag.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.125.130.233 (talkcontribs)

then add one —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.35.148.201 (talkcontribs)
First of all, this isn't 7th grade so no need for that kind of language and pointless bashing. Second of all, the stub tag is deprecated - instead articles should be categorized according to their content. You may find a list of stub categories here. If you come across a page listed as a stub, you might want to take the time to categorize it. There is a collection of users who do this on a regular basis and you're more than welcome to join as soon as you sign up for a Wikipedia account. — Indi [ talk ] 17:32, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Subsequent "Eight Year" contracts?

"After the expiration of the initial eight year service contract, soldiers who elect to continue their service may sign subsequent eight year contracts consecutively until they finally leave the service;..."

  • This statement in the introduction doesn't seem correct. If it is, I couldn't see why many would reenlist after the initial eight year contract. One would be commiting large blocks on one's life to a further military contract. I strongly suspect that there are lesser term contracts available, say two, three, and four year or longer contracts for those who wish further commitment. --TGC55 18:25, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Both initial and subsequent military service committment contracts are eight years, but this is only the period that the soldier must remain committed to possible involuntary recall as a member of the IRR. Within the eight year period, the soldier can opt for two, three, four, or six years of service with the regular army, and any number of years between one and eight for service with the active reserves. Anything less than eight means that at the end of the active component or active reserve service, the soldier will still have some number of years before their overall military service obligation expires. The soldier can then opt for an additional stretch of active component or active reserve service within the time period that remains on the eight year contract, or wait their time out in the IRR. If the soldier intends to re-enlist for a stretch of time longer than what remains of the eight year obligation, the soldier usually must sign a new eight year contract to extend the time available in which to serve in the active component or the active reserves. The basis for these eight year contractual obligations can be found in Title 10 of the United States Code. --AzureCitizen 03:12, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
I performed some significant word smithing on the first three paragraphs to attempt to clarify the situation. This entire article needs attention, it lacks clarity, terms are dated, references are not cited. This article needs some "love" from the RC community. e.w.bullock 04:11, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

What I just changed

Hi. I changed the location of the 311th Theater Signal Command from Fort Meade, Maryland to Fort Shafter, Hawaii. I am a soldier in the Army Reserve, and I was in that unit when it was in Fort Meade. The flag and command moved to Hawaii, and they left a detachment behind at Meade... but the HQ is officially in Hawaii. Cheers! J.D. Walker (talk) 17:20, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Comment removed. It was personal discussion without regard to the article subject. Violates the "discussion" rules. e.w.bullock 04:15, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

100% ?

I am a little confused: if "100% of chemical brigades, internment brigades, judge advocate units, medical groups, railway units, training & exercise divisions, and water supply battalions" belong to the reserve, then does that mean we only have these units 1 weekend a month and 2 weeks a year??? 141.152.254.26 (talk) 04:56, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

This information is dated. But yes to your question and for as long as they are mobilized. V/R Bullock 04:53, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
