Abstract
Abstract : The Secretary of the Army initiated a study of the Army's employment of active and reserve components. Simultaneously, the Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness announced an investigation that is evaluating the missions of the reserve components with the objective of overhauling their structure and missions. The purpose of this paper is to present a tool that can facilitate the decision-making process for assigning Army units, both active and reserve, to a particular mission, specifically Military Operations Other Than War. The paper also examines the history of the current force structure and how the Army, with its active and reserve components, can best provide a seamless force capable of meeting the needs of the nation. It concludes with the proposal of an algorithm for use in decision-making, examples of its application, and suggestions for future research.
