CUMULATIVE MONTHS UNDER THAT AUTHORITY". HOWEVER, "RESERVE MEMBERS
WHO HAVE SERVED ON ACTIVE DUTY FOR 24 MONTHS...UNDER 10 U.S.C. 12302,
MAY BE RETAINED ON ACTIVE DUTY UNDER 10 U.S.C. 12301(D), WITH THEIR
CONSENT".
2. WITH THE END OF LARGE SCALE COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAQ, THE NATURE
OF THE OPERATIONS IDENTIFIED ABOVE HAS CHANGED. SOME MISSION AREAS
THAT WERE CRITICAL IN THE EARLY STAGES MAY NO LONGER BE REQUIRED, AND
NEW MISSION AREAS MAY NOW NEED TO BE SUPPORTED. COMMANDERS WILL
EXAMINE MISSION REQUIREMENTS PERFORMED BY RESERVE MEMBERS. IN CASES
WHERE MISSION REQUIREMENTS HAVE CHANGED, WORKLOADS HAVE DECREASED, OR
SUITABLE SUBSTITUTES CAN BE EMPLOYED, RESERVE MEMBERS SHOULD BE
DEACTIVATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE PER REFS B AND C.
3. AN IA CONFERENCE WAS HELD AT THIS HEADQUARTERS 15-23 MAY 2003 TO
IDENTIFY ONGOING IA REQUIREMENTS. CONFERENCE ATTENDEES REACHED
CONSENSUS THAT THERE WILL BE A CONTINUING NEED TO ADJUST REQUIREMENTS
DURING THE ON-GOING GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM (GWOT) AS MISSIONS AND
REQUIREMENTS CHANGE.
4. MEMBERS INITIALLY MOBILIZED IN SUPPORT OF OEF/OIF AND ONE WILL BE
APPROACHING THE 24-MONTH LIMIT BEGINNING IN SEPTEMBER 2003.

CUMULATIVE.
B. MOBILIZED MEMBERS FILLING VALIDATED (OEF/ONE/OIF) MOBILIZATION
RELATED IA BILLETS CAN BE CONTINUED ON ACTIVE DUTY UNDER
MOBILIZATION AUTHORITY UNTIL THEY REACHED THE 24 MONTH CUMULATIVE
LIMIT. ONLY RESERVISTS REACHING 24 MONTHS OF ACTIVE DUTY UNDER
MOBILIZATION AUTHORITY WILL BE TRANSITIONED TO ACTIVE DUTY SPECIAL
WORK (ADSW) (10 U.S.C. 12301). THE TRANSITION WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED
WITH A MODIFICATION OF THEIR CURRENT MOBILIZATION ORDERS. THE
MODIFICATION WILL CHANGE THE AUTHORITY GRANTING ACTIVE SERVICE FROM
TITLE 10 USC SECTION 12302 TO TITLE 10 SECTION 12301 (D), AND WILL BE
REFERRED TO AS ADSW (KM).
C. THE MOBILIZED MEMBER MUST VOLUNTARILY AGREE TO EXTEND ON ACTIVE
DUTY BEYOND 24 MONTHS.
D. IN INSTANCES WHERE THE MEMBER VOLUNTEERS TO EXTEND, BUT THEIR

AUGMENTEE CAP MANAGEMENT MODULE (IACMM) TO IDENTIFY TO CMC (MPP-60)
THAT THE MARINE HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR EXTENSION AND IS AVAILABLE FOR
RE-ASSIGNMENT BASED ON THE NEEDS OF THE MARINE CORPS. CMC (MPP-60)
WILL THEN ASSIGN THE MEMBER AS APPROPRIATE.
E. IF THE MEMBER IS ASSIGNED TO A VALID BILLET NOT WITHIN THEIR
CURRENT LOCAL AREA, THEY MAY BE PROVIDED WITH A NEW SET OF
ADSW (KM)ORDERS.
F. IF A MEMBER IS APPROVED TO REMAIN IN PLACE, CURRENT MOBILIZATION
ORDERS WILL BE MODIFIED TO CONTINUE THE MEMBER ON ACTIVE DUTY UNDER
AUTHORITY PROVIDED IN TITLE 10 SECTION 12301(D). THIS ORDER
MODIFICATION PROCESS WILL PROVIDE FOR A SEAMLESS TRANSITION FOR
MEMBERS SERVING BEYOND 24 MONTHS.
G. TO ACHIEVE A SEAMLESS TRANSITION, AND TO ENSURE CONTINUITY FOR
THE MEMBERS RETAINED ON ACTIVE DUTY, ORDERS WILL BE "TAD IN EXCESS".
HOWEVER, AS MISSION REQUIREMENTS DICTATE, AND IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
MEMBER'S PERSONAL SITUATION, PCS MOVES WILL BE CONSIDERED ON A
CASE-BY-CASE BASIS.
H. TO PRECLUDE A REQUIREMENT FOR A BREAK IN SERVICE, THOSE MEMBERS
TRANSITIONED UNDER THIS POLICY WILL REMAIN IN THE SAME COMPONENT CODE
(KM).
I. "TAD IN EXCESS" ADSW (KM) ORDERS WILL RETAIN ALL THE ENTITLEMENTS
AS PROMULGATED IN REF D AND WILL BE CONTINUOUS ACTIVE DUTY.

REQUIRED TO RETURN TO HIS PLACE OF ENTRY TO ACTIVE DUTY (PLEAD) TO
TERMINATE HIS PARTIAL MOBILIZATION ORDERS AND ACCEPT HIS NEW PCS
ORDERS. PER DIEM WILL NOT BE AUTHORIZED ON PCS ORDERS.

FURTHER.
L. PER REF A, MEMBERS VOLUNTARILY EXTENDED QUALIFY FOR CIVILIAN
REEMPLOYMENT RIGHTS AND BENEFITS, UNDER CHAPTER 43 OF TITLE 38,
U.S.C.
M. TO MAXIMIZE THE USE OF VOLUNTEER RESERVISTS, EXTENSION OF MEMBERS
APPROACHING SANCTUARY WILL BE CONSIDERED ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS, IN
ORDER TO BALANCE THE OVERALL OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE
COMMANDER, AGAINST THE IMPACT OF RETAINING THE MEMBER UNTIL THEY
QUALIFY FOR A REGULAR RETIREMENT. FURTHER GUIDANCE WILL BE
FORTHCOMMING ON RESERVISTS WHO ENTER SANCTUARY (THE 18-YEAR OF SERVICE
MARK) WHILE ON ACTIVE DUTY IN SUPPORT OF ONE/OEF/OIF.
