National Guard and Reserve Mobilized as of April 27, 2005

This week, the Army, Navy and Marine Corps announced a decrease in the number of reservists on active duty in support of the partial mobilization. The Air Force and Coast Guard had no change in their numbers. The net collective result is 1,147 fewer 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 148,935; Naval Reserve, 3,874; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 9,290; Marine Corps Reserve, 11,983; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 580. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel, who have been mobilized, to 174,662, including both units and individual augmentees.

A cumulative roster of all National Guard and Reserve personnel, who are currently mobilized, can be found at http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Apr2005/d20050427ngr.pdf.
