Some mobilized agency personnel may be reporting back to
the civil service. The Department of Defense has announced
that the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps have each
reported a decrease in reservists on active duty supporting
the partial mobilization, resulting in a total decrease of
2,075 reservists than the prior week.
The total number of reservists is in constant flux due to
the simultaneous mobilization of some and demobilization of
others, and that the new figures as of December 31, 2003,
pegs the total number currently on active duty in the Army
National Guard and Army Reserve at 154,194; Naval Reserve
1,519; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 19,031;
Marine Corps Reserve, 9,709, and the Coast Guard Reserve,
1,171, bringing the total National Guard and Reserve on
active duty 164,244; Air National Guard and Air Force
Reserve, 20,112; Marine Corps Reserve, 6,742; and the Coast
Guard Reserve, 1,179. Total: 183,746, including both units
and individual augmentees, said DoD.
