IMMEDIATE RELEASE No. 776-06
August 16, 2006

National Guard (In Federal Status) and Reserve Mobilized as of August 16, 2006

           This week, the Navy and Air Force announced an increase in the number of reservists on active duty in support of the partial mobilization, while the Army and Marine Corps number decreased. The Coast Guard number remained the same. The net collective result is 1,498 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 91,488; Navy Reserve, 5,780; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 7,114; Marine Corps Reserve, 7,350; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 315. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel, who have been mobilized, to 112,047, including both units and individual augmentees.
 
A cumulative roster of all National Guard and Reserve personnel, who are currently mobilized, can be found at http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Aug2006/d20060816ngr.pdf .
