[RC] Fw: National Guard and Reserve Mobilized as of September 22, 2004 - Mary Ann Spencer

Below is the link to the currently deployed units.  If anyone happens to have the time, inclination etc, you can 'adopt' a unit near you and send cards, etc.  The neatest card I received was from a friend in Afghanistan.  He took the cardboard cover from an MRE and use it for a post card.  All mail under one ounce is free mailing.   You are not allowed to send to any soldier but there are units whom you can contact with a contact person or listing or thru the unit's chaplain.  All mail is appreciated by the troops.   
 
                                        Thanks for listening.  Mary Ann

National Guard and Reserve Mobilized as of September 22, 2004


            This week, the Army, Navy and Marine Corps announced an increase in the
number of reservists on active duty in support of the partial mobilization, while
the Air Force had a decrease and Coast Guard remained unchanged.  The net
collective result is 984 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 140,174; Naval
Reserve, 3,962; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 11,130; Marine Corps
Reserve, 11,559; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 1,515.  This brings the total
National Guard and Reserve personnel, who have been mobilized, to 168,340 including
both units and individual augmentees.



            A cumulative roster of all National Guard and Reserve personnel, who
are currently mobilized can be found at
