By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including sections 121 and 12304 of title 10, United States Code, I hereby determine that it is necessary to augment the active Armed Forces of the United States for the effective conduct of Operation Atlantic Resolve in and around the United States European Command’s area of responsibility.

You just now noticed?
My guess is he’s calling up specific MOS personnel.
Remove this war monger from office.
I’ll tell you what it means. It means no size restrictions, and screw the limit.
Yes, but this time I ain’t going.
5.56mm
It means we’re getting ready to go in to Ukraine with our own troops as we head into 2024 election season.
Far Side?
He’s not calling anybody up. His staff if calling them up. He’s probably in bed or getting changed for bed.

No one is wondering if old Joe is going to get us into WWIII to protect his boy - because he needs the Presidency to Protect his boy, and himself.
He has stopped at nothing.
Federal Raids to get his daughter’s diary.

The US has:
Active Duty personnel
Reservists that are under federal command.
National Guard that are under state command unless activated by the President and put under federal command.
Inactive Ready Reserve...you finished your enlistment, but you still have a couple of years(usually 2) where you can be called back into service at any time
So, he’s putting 3000 troops on Active Duty to be deployed somewhere in Eastern Europe, it would appear. You know, to protect NATOs and Europe’s, Eastern Flank because they can’t do it themselves, obviously. So, they get to keep on living their socialist lives, under the security blanket provided by US personnel.
Myself, and all I know, had a 4 year IRR.
I’ve never heard of “Operation Atlantic Resolve”. When was that launched?
American troops fighting Russia in Ukraine? Sure, why not?
Just a couple steps short of total nuclear war and the end of everything. No more worries about stolen elections, or the national debt, or making the house payment. Where are the adults in this administration?!
I’m guessing they get housed on the east side of Northern Poland in case Wagner etc truly are in Belarus. Or...and this may be pure speculation, that a deal has been struck in its infancy and they are preparing to place troops in Western Ukraine as a protectorate against whatever they give away to Russia.
Next week, if you see “We don’t need the Donbas anyway” articles, then you know this was probably the reason.
He’s not calling anybody up
That is one thing that still amazes me. People actually think he’s the one giving the orders.
The man can’t find his way off a stage, can barely walk across a floor, makes zero sense when he talks, has to be led around like a child, and there are people, many on here, that think he’s the one calling the shots.
Compare his riding a bike on the hard sand beaches of Kiawah Island a while back, on one of his many vacations, and he’s riding up and down like a man much younger than he is and then flash to a guy that can barely walk off a stage.
On a side note, has anyone ever talked about the insane amount of plastic surgery the man has undergone?
Hah. Excellent ‘cipher’.
My bad.
National Guard folks usually do a 6 by 2, IIRC.
Isn’t it 2 years IRR and then the last 2yrs some other military term, but still officially under the authority of DOD if something goes sideways?
It was 6 years during Nam ...
It looks like that’s where we’re headed.
Nothing like the Far Side.
We all know that technically it’s his office and not himself that are issuing orders and signing laws, but what is the answer to the initial question?
Who are the Selected Reserve?
