A Throughput-Based Analysis of Army Active Component/Reserve Component Mix for Major Contingency Surge Operations by Michael E. Linick, Paperback

This report examines how well the processes and timeline for generating ready forces from the Army reserve component (RC) units align with a need for rapid deployment to a future major conflict overseas. The report focuses on how the dynamics of the mobilization process for Army RC units can, or should, affect decisionmaking about force mix, as well as how policy and resourcing decisions can either enhance or inhibit mobilization. | A Throughput-Based Analysis of Army Active Component/Reserve Component Mix for Major Contingency Surge Operations by Michael E.
