The Secretary of the Army (SA) is responsible for Army mobilization. The Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Manpower and Reserve Affairs (ASA(M&RA)) assists the SA,
by providing policy oversight for Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA)
mobilization activities. The Chief of Staff, Army (CSA) is responsible to the SA for
mobilization planning and execution. Under the CSA’s direction, Army Deputy Chief of
Staff, G-3/5/7 is the proponent for mobilization. The Army Deputy Chief of Staff, G-3/5/7
DAMO-OD, is the Army Staff directorate responsible for Army mobilization planning and
execution. Army G-3/5/7 DAMO-ODM is the Army Staff division that is responsible for
executing mobilization policy, current mobilization operations and future mobilization
planning.
This revision of AMOPES incorporates the valuable lessons learned and supports the
changing Army. As the Army transforms, Soldiers and units continue to mobilize in
support of ongoing operations, contingencies and humanitarian missions. AMOPES
provides policy references, procedures and guidance to ensure seamless support to the
Warfighter. AMOPES reflects the necessary transformation to ensure Army mobilization
systems are able to support current and future requirements.
Background
AMOPES provides the Army with current mobilization policy, procedures and practices
used when mobilizing individual units and Soldiers. The Army mobilization process
2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
must remain sufficiently flexible in order to effectively manage Army mobilization under
a variety of conditions, such as the lack of a contingency plan or the absence of time-
phased force deployment data. Long-term experience and especially experience during
the GWOT show that requirements may arise sequentially and change as conditions in
the operating theater evolve. All mobilization activities and personnel must be ready to
adapt to changes in needs and priorities arising from shifting requirements in the
operational theater and the decisions of higher authorities. Thus, the documents that
specify, support and implement mobilization processes must be similarly flexible.
Command Relationship
The G-3/5/7 is accountable to the Army leadership for the effective and the efficient
performance of all mobilization activities. Coordination and approval of mobilization
actions throughout the mobilization process are made through the G-3/5/7 staff.
Once the COCOM identifies the requirement, a request for forces is generated and
forwarded to Joint Staff/JFCOM. FORSCOM sources the Joint Staff/JFCOM approved
request with available RC units specifically identified to meet the mission requirement.
DAMO-ODM alerts and mobilizes RC units. Readiness and previous deployments will
be major considerations in the approval process. DAMO-ODM is the directorate
responsible for ensuring Army mobilization requests are approved in conjunction with
approved statues, policies and practices. DAMO-ODM then publishes appropriate
Alert/Mobilization orders and amendments as necessary.
The Army G-3/5/7 is the Army’s overall proponent for Army mobilization, deployment,
sustainment, redeployment and demobilization planning, doctrine and execution, where
appropriate and is the Army proponent for AMOPES.
FORSCOM is the executing agent for CONUS force mobilization (less Special
Operations Forces (SOF)), deployment and demobilization planning and execution.
United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) is the executing agent for
SOF unit mobilization. The FORSCOM Mobilization and Deployment Planning System
(FORMDEPS), in compliance with guidance in this document and other governing
authorities, will be directive in nature and will provide standardized policies and
procedures for Army Commands (ACOMs), Army Service Component Commands
(ASCCs), Direct Reporting Units (DRUs), Army Components of Unified and Specified
Commands and Field Operating Agencies to ensure coordinated action in mobilizing
and deploying Army forces to support approved operation plans and contingency
operations. Other ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs will ensure that the policy and procedures
contained in FORMDEPS are reflected in appropriate supporting guidance. OCONUS
ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs will use FORMDEPS as a guide. Army components of the
unified/specified commands will adhere to policies and procedures established in the
Joint Operations Planning and Execution System (JOPES) for the development and
execution of plans.

US Code, Title 10 section 12301(a), provides Congress the authority to activate the full
complement of the Selected Reserve (SelRes) and the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR),
to support any declaration of war or other national emergency. This activation authority
is in effect for the duration of the war or emergency, and 6 months thereafter. The
Selective Service System may be activated to provide necessary manpower. Military
retirees in Categories I and II will be recalled to active duty as needed. Total stop loss
authorities and stop movement actions will be implemented. Training base expansion
will occur.

UNCLASSIFIED
Title 10 USC section 12302, provides the President declaration authority to activate up
to 1,000,000 members of the SelRes and the IRR, to meet the requirements of war or
other emergency that threatens the nation’s security. The President’s authority is limited
to activating SelRes / IRR personnel for a period not to exceed 24-consecutive months.
Access to the SelRes and military retirees will be restricted IAW manpower ceilings
established by the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF), or his designee. The mobilization
of RC forces will be time phased within the established manpower ceiling. Training base
expansion is anticipated.
Title 10 USC section 12304 provides the President the authority to activate, without a
declaration of national emergency, not more than 200,000 members of the Selective
Reserve and the IRR (of which not more than 30,000 may be members of the IRR), for
not more than 365 days to meet the support requirements of any operational mission.
Access to RC units and individuals will be restricted IAW manpower ceilings established
by the SECDEF or his designee, within the overall authority to call up to 200,000
members of the Selective Reserve. Training base expansion may be required.
Wartime industrial mobilization will not occur, but industrial surge of selected items
under peacetime rules of production may be ordered.
Title 10 USC section 12301(b) provides the Service Secretaries the authority to
involuntarily call to active duty any unit, or member not assigned to a unit, for a period
not to exceed than 15 days per year. Units and members of the ARNG may not be
ordered to active duty under this authority without the consent of the governor of the
state.

Selective Mobilization
Selective mobilization may be used for federal support to states for domestic
emergencies. Examples are: aid to states in case of insurrection, to enforce federal
authority and to suppress interference with state or federal law. RC units and members
of the IRR, stand-by reserve and volunteers from the retired reserve may be mobilized.
Mobilization Process
• Identify units to meet approved requirements via the ARFORGEN sourcing process
• Bring them into active federal service and move to mobilization station
The Army’s Total Force is tailored to meet the current strategy of flexible and selective
engagement, retaining the capability to fight a war and/or multiple combat operations.
With the exception of SOF; resources apportioned by the Joint Strategic Capabilities
Plan (JSCP) to specific regional commands, Total Army Combat Support/Combat
Service Support (CS/CSS) assets will be pooled with units being drawn to tailor the
appropriate force package(s) to support each deployed Brigade Combat Team (BCT).
To ensure maximum availability of resources and support, planning will also consider
and include, when appropriate, capabilities of the other Services and Federal
departments, Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), Navy Exchange (NEX)
and Host Nation Support (HNS).
Policies and procedures stated in AR 700-127 Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) will
continue in force during mobilization and deployment, unless modified by DA (DALO-
LOC-AOC) message.

Modularity
Modularity is the Army’s major force transformation initiative, which involves the total
redesign of the operational Army into a smaller, more powerful, flexible and deployable
force. This redesign centers on the Brigade Combat Team (BCT). This unit is a stand-
alone and standardized tactical force of between 3,500 and 4,000 Soldiers that is
organized the way it fights. The Army will implement the plan to resource up to 46 AC
BCTs and 28 ARNG BCTs. Modularity has several major advantages. These include:
• At least a 30% increase in the combat power of the active component of the force
• Force design upon which the future network centric developments can be readily
applied
The structured progression of increased unit readiness over time, resulting in recurring
periods of availability of trained, ready and cohesive units prepared for operational
deployment in support of civil authorities and COCOM requirements. ARFORGEN is a
managed force generation process, driven by operational requirements, that focuses all
AC/RC conventional forces toward future missions as early as possible, task organizes
these forces into expeditionary force packages, manages them to progressively higher
levels of capability and readiness through sequential force pools to corresponding
“ready for what/resourced for what” metrics and then provides them as tailored force
capabilities to meet worldwide Army requirements. The Army is implementing
ARFORGEN to meet strategic requirements for continuous full-spectrum operations and
preserve the all volunteer force in persistent conflict.
Mobilization will be contingent upon imposed personnel ceilings, availability of lift and
mobilization station processing/training capabilities. This will result in multiple orders to
active duty. The starting date for determining period of service for each unit will be the
date ordered to active duty as specified on the mobilization order (M-date). RC units
mobilized and subsequently released from active duty will not be counted against the
authorized AC personnel ceiling. To remain within authorized ceilings, derivative UICs
(DUIC’s) may be necessary.
AC/RC Rebalance
The current force is today’s operational Army. The Army organizes, trains and equips to
conduct operations as part of the Joint Force. It is designed to provide the requisite land
7
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
power capabilities joint force commanders need across the range of military operations.
The current force’s ability to conduct major combat operations underscores its credibility
and effectiveness for full-spectrum operations and fulfills the enduring obligation of
Army forces to fight wars and win the peace.
In order to optimize the Army’s structure, the Army is rebalancing the AC/RC. When
completed, more than 100,000 positions will have been restructured within our Army.
Restructuring the force will increase units with special skills that are routinely in high
demand by COCOMs, such as military police, engineers and civil affairs. Additionally,
more combat support (CS) and combat service support (CSS) structure is transferring
into the AC to improve its rapid deployment capability and ability to sustain operations
during the first 30 days of a contingency. This increase in high-demand units will reduce
the requirements for immediate mobilization of RC units and provide additional training
time for later unit rotational cycles.
Transforming the nation’s military capabilities, while at war, requires a careful balance
between sustaining and enhancing the capabilities of the current force, while investing
in capabilities for the future force. Joint concept development and experimentation,
investments in science and technology and future force designs that facilitate
interdependent, network-enabled, joint operations will ensure the Army meets the
requirements of tomorrow’s joint force commander. Simultaneously, accelerated fielding
of proven technologies and other high-payoff improvements across Doctrine,
Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel and Facilities
(DOTMLPF) enhances the capabilities of the current force in meeting ongoing
commitments worldwide. The Army’s transformation strategy provides the construct for
achieving and maintaining this requisite balance.

Steady-state – detect, deter and if necessary, defeat external threats to the U.S.
homeland and enable partners to contribute to U.S. national security. Examples of such
activities include: routine homeland security training and exercises with other federal
agencies and state and local governments; and readiness to provide support to civil
authorities for consequence management events.
Steady-state – deter and defend against external transnational terrorist attacks, enable
partners through integrated security cooperation programs and conduct multiple,
globally distributed irregular operations of varying duration. Employ general purpose
forces continuously to interact with allies, build partner capability, conduct long-duration
counter insurgency operations and deter aggressors through forward presence.
Surge – wage two nearly simultaneous conventional campaigns (or one conventional
campaign if already engaged in a large-scale, long-duration irregular campaign), while
selectively reinforcing deterrence against opportunistic acts of aggression. Be prepared
in one of the two campaigns to remove a hostile regime, destroy its military capacity and
set conditions for the transition to, or for the restoration of, civil society.

Annex
The purpose of this annex is to enable Army Service Component Command (ASCC)
planning in support of Combatant Command contingency planning tasks directed in the
Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan (JSCP) and Global Force Management (GFM)
Guidance document.
Force Apportionment
The apportionment tables applicable to JSCP-tasked plans are located in the GFM
Guidance document, Section IV, “Apportionment of Forces.” These tables provide types
and quantities of forces and serve as a start point for contingency planning. Forces are
apportioned without regard for availability or combat readiness, and may not be the
same forces allocated for execution. Periodic revisions to the apportionment tables are
directed by the Joint Staff (J-8 Forces Division). For this planning cycle, the force
inventory is set through 30 September 2008.
Sourcing
Sourcing is a Service responsibility and is performed under the authority of the Service
headquarters. Army components to Joint Force Providers (except USSOCOM) will
coordinate with HQDA (DAMO-SSW) on all sourcing recommendations.
A-1
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Initial sourcing
Initial sourcing consists of the types and quantities of forces portrayed in the GFM
apportionment tables. These forces provide a basis for initiating planning, and help
answer the question of what type and how many forces can be used for plan
development.
Contingency sourcing
AP and GFM are transforming DOD force planning and management practices for the
21st century strategic environment. Compressed planning timelines and rotational force
management, supported by web-enabled collaborative planning tools, have overtaken
the assumptions of an earlier, static planning environment.
Older iterations of AMOPES Annex A associated named, major combat units with the
apportioned major combat forces. That methodology, suspended in AMOPES 2005, is
now discontinued. That function has been assumed by the contingency sourcing
process for the current and future JSCP planning cycle.
Expect contingency sourcing for selected plans will be conducted in conjunction with the
Joint Combat Capabilities Assessment (JCCA) cycle and on an “as needed’ basis for
that planning cycle. Army Service component force providers will coordinate with HQDA
(DAMO-SSW) upon receipt of notification for a contingency sourcing effort.
Contingency sourcing should be viewed as a bridge between initial sourcing and plan
execution until mature AP, GFM, and Army Force Generation processes and
technologies are able to produce “living” plans that can be rapidly and near-continuously
reviewed, assessed, terminated, or executed.

SIGINT technical data support requirements must be identified to the next higher
Analysis and Control Element, or appropriate Regional Technical Control and Analysis
Element (TCAE) and the Army TCAE, as soon as the determination has been made to
mobilize SIGINT/EW assets. For units without previous access to national cryptologic
systems and databases, SIGINT Soldiers may require database training and
Counterintelligence-scope polygraph prior to deployment. Contact Forces Command G-
2 to coordinate for this training.
Army Reserve Intelligence Support Centers (ARISCs), ARISC detachments, and many
Joint Reserve Intelligence Centers (JRICs) have access to national SIGINT systems
and connectivity. Commanders should consider using these capabilities to maintain
Soldiers technical skill and situational awareness prior to deployment.
Counterintelligence (CI)
Geospatial intelligence plays a key role in the full range of military operations from
peace to war. Commanders use GEOINT data to help determine friendly and enemy
courses of action (COAs) and to plan for the deployment of forces and key weapons
systems. Digital map displays enabled by GEOINT serve as the background on which a
conflict is played out. When coupled with intelligence data, the disposition of friendly
forces, weather and the logistics situation, geospatial information assists the
commander to visualize and develop the battle space in order to exploit enemy

GI&S supports operations by providing information about the earth’s surfaces, objects
(both natural and man-made) and baseline imagery for modeling and spatial reasoning
applications. GI&S provides the underlying basic geospatial data needed for precise
geo-positioning. It includes hardcopy maps, digital terrain sets, geospatial libraries,
aeronautical charts, nautical charts and topographic products.

Support to Joint operation can be found in Joint Pub 2-03, or CJCS 3901.01 ,
Requirements for Geospatial Information and Services. Mobilization planning must
ensure that requirements for geospatial support are identified and that proper
operational and war reserve stocks are available, on hand and maintained. Requests
for special GI&S support from theater topographic units will be coordinated through the
appropriate ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs GI&S staff officer. Guidance for preparation of
the topographic operation annex is found in FM 3-34.230. Detailed guidance and
examples can be found in the “Army Geospatial Guide for Commanders and Planners
TC 5-230. In the event that the ACOM, ASCC, or DRU GI&S Staff Officer cannot be
located, an alternative is to contact the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGS)
Army Command Support Team for information or guidance. (GI&S: The concept for

Weather Support
Weather information and evaluation of adverse weather effects on operations are key
parts of the intelligence and mission planning process. Mobilization planning must
ensure that requirements for all types of weather support are identified. Additionally,
cross-service procedures must be established to ensure when an Army RC unit is
activated, that a request for weather support is forwarded through channels to the Air
Force. The Air Force will then determine if this unit should receive direct, in-place
support or if it can be supported through reach back. If the RC unit requires in-place
support, the Air Force will determine which AF Weather personnel will be mobilized.
Guidance for submitting and establishing weather support requirements is found in AR
115-10/AFJI 15-157.
Army Mobilization Plans will address the type of SSO support that is currently being
provided and any additional SSO mobilization support requirements.
The mobilization station supporting SSO will provide support for RC MI units and
individual Soldiers to include indoctrination, debriefing, passing of clearance
information, storage of SCI material, certification of tactical Sensitive Compartmented
Information Facilities (SCIF) for training and review of billet structure.
Unit commanders will review the status of clearances of all personnel who will require
access to classified information upon mobilization. CDRS will request appropriate
security clearances for personnel who do not possess them. Procedures for expediting
security clearances processing in times of mobilization are detailed in AR 380-67.
Revised security clearance procedures may be implemented by HQDA, G-2. The
supporting security office will be cognizant of any revised procedures.

The PSSP will continue to initiate Personnel Reliability Program (PRP) screens and
Single Scope Background Investigations (SSBI) procedures will be streamlined to

Intelligence Automation
Life Cycle Support. Mobilization plans must identify manpower shortages in support of
intelligence automation based on current/projected fill and maintenance support
shortfalls. The plans must: identify hardware and software support requirements and the
impact on loss of civilian contractor backup support; develop plans for transition in order
to better accommodate Army maintenance support; and determine whether the gaining
command will be able to provide the required technical support (military, civilian or
contractor) - if not, determine if the current civilian support contract can be modified to
allow deployment of the support contractor, or consider modifying the existing contract,
or develop a new contract, to provide the required information management support at
the deployed location.

Appendix
The longer-term trends and conditions apparent before 9/11, continuing global turmoil,
the increasing importance of the asymmetric threat and the traditional challenges posed
by the regional and strategic military forces of other states, still apply today. But the
terrorist attacks have brought a new dynamic to the global security environment.
Terrorism is the most significant asymmetric threat to US interests at home and abroad.
Of most concern are Islamic extremist organizations, in the Middle East and throughout
the world. Other groups with varying causes, nationalistic, leftist, ethnic or religious, will
continue to pose a lesser threat.
In general, terrorists will likely favor proven conventional weapons over chemical,
biological, radiological, or nuclear (CBRN) materials, at least through the near term.
However, several groups, especially Al Qa’ida, have pursued CBRN capabilities and the
threat from terrorist use of these materials will continue.
Our national infrastructures and our economy are vulnerable to disruptions by other
forms of physical and cyber attack. Of special concern are attacks against one or more,
relatively unprotected, key nodes in our economic infrastructure, banking and finance,
telecommunications, energy, power, agriculture, the industrial base, etc. The
interdependent nature of these and other portions of our domestic infrastructure and the
connectivity between our infrastructure and the global economic system, create even
more vulnerability. Foreign states have the greatest attack potential (in terms of
resources and capabilities), but the most immediate and serious threat today is from
insiders, terrorists, criminals and other small groups or individuals carrying out well-
coordinated strikes against selected critical nodes.
at high risk, especially in East Africa, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Pakistan, Iraq and
Afghanistan. Operations against US targets could be launched by Al-Qa’ida cells
already in place in major cities in Europe and the Middle East. Al-Qa’ida can also
exploit its presence or connections to other groups in such countries as Somalia,
Yemen, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Information Operations
Potential adversaries recognize that our political and economic livelihood increasingly
depends on advanced information technologies and systems. They also understand
that information superiority provides the US with unique military advantages. Many also
assess that public opinion plays a key role in our society. Accordingly, numerous
potential foes are pursuing information operations capabilities as a relatively
inexpensive means to undermine domestic and international support for US actions, to
attack US national infrastructures, or to challenge our information superiority. The
threat from information operations will expand significantly during the next decade or so.
Counter-Space Capabilities
The US reliance on (and advantages in) the use of space platforms is well known by our
enemies. Many are attempting to reduce this advantage by developing capabilities to
threaten US space assets, in particular through denial and deception, signal jamming
and ground segment attack. A number of countries are interested in or experimenting
with a variety of technologies that could be used to develop counter-space capabilities.
These efforts could result in improved systems for space object tracking, electronic
warfare or jamming and directed energy weapons. Some countries have across-the-
board programs underway and other states and non-state entities are pursuing more
limited, though potentially effective, approaches. By 2010, future adversaries will be
able to employ a wider variety of means to disrupt, degrade, or defeat portions of the
US space support system.

Annex
This annex will guide the user through the process to deploy and sustain sufficiently
manned, equipped and trained forces, to support military operation. The process
includes guidance for alerting, mobilizing, redeploying and demobilizing Reserve
Component (RC) units and individuals, as required.
Planning for the training, deployment, employment and sustainment of Army forces
must include the possibility that access to Reserve Components may not be authorized
at C-Day and that authority, once granted, may be limited in scope ( i.e., may be limited
either in numbers authorized for mobilization or in length of service). Planning must
accommodate the possibility of a protracted duration of operations under such restricted
mobilization authority with limited access to the RC. While the RC is critical to the
execution of any contingency plan, plans should prioritize RC assets to ensure that
essential elements are included in any ceiling limitations.
Theater force requirements will evolve as the conflict proceeds and priorities for
mobilization and/or deployment of forces will be subject to continual change. Priority of
allocations for reserve forces (units/individuals) will be given to the supported theater of
operations. Allocations to the CONUS base support, port operations, mobilization
station augmentation and for critical medical services, as well as support to other
theaters, will not be neglected.
Generally, ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs must rely on their peacetime staffs augmented
where necessary, with civilian over hire, recalled military retirees, RC volunteers and
mobilized RC personnel. Selected stop-loss authorities may be implemented IAW
ODCS G-1 guidance during PRC and partial mobilization authority. Implementing stop

loss will be particularly important in retaining critically needed Army personnel. The G-1,
ICW the Surgeon General of the Army, will develop procedures and standards for
identifying non-deployable mobilized RC personnel and assigning them to CONUS
based duties consistent with their physical limitations. Mobilization planning will include
the requirement to maintain key support services to installations. These key support
services include medical, force protection and key asset protection, among others.
Planning will not include the establishment of rear detachments.
After the requirement has been validated, the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF), or a
specifically designated representative, must approve the mobilization of all RC units and
individuals and the recall of military retirees. FORSCOM and USASOC (CONUS); and
USAREUR, USARSO or USARPAC (OCONUS), will submit a by-name/unit request
through DAMO-ODM to receive authorization to mobilize RC units and individuals.
Following approval by the SECDEF or his designated representative, mobilization
orders will be published.
FORSCOM will provide HQDA with sourcing recommendations for all CONUS-based
RC forces, except SOF. For deployment requirements, FORSCOM will provide sourcing
recommendations coordinated with USAREUR/USARPAC for OCONUS-based RC
forces.
USASOC will provide HQDA with sourcing recommendations for all CONUS based RC
SOF. Information copies will be provided to FORSCOM. FORSCOM and USASOC will
include NGB, USARC and/or HRC in all sourcing decisions. AMC, USACIDC, DLA,
INSCOM, MEDCOM and SDDC will provide FORSCOM with RC requirements to
accomplish their assigned missions. Information copies will be provided to DAMO-ODM.
To the extent possible, selection of units for mobilization should focus on the nature of
the operation, current unit readiness, availability and specific theater requirements. All
Army units deploying OCONUS will be validated as mission capable prior to
deployment. The following commands are responsible for validation: FORSCOM for all
CONUS based units (less SOF and Medical); USASOC will validate all SOF units
USAREUR and USARPAC will validate units deploying from their area of
responsibility. This function may change at FOC of Joint Force Provider
implementation. All Army ACOM, ASCC and DRU may be tasked by validating
authorities to assist in unit assessment.
FORSCOM and USASOC are the two sources of RC requirements to HQDA. Upon
notification of approval to mobilize units by DAMO-ODM, FORSCOM will manage the
mobilization of CONUS-based units, less SOF. FORSCOM will integrate mobilized SOF
units into the overall flow at mobilization stations for mobilization processing. Following
validation, FORSCOM will transfer the mobilized RC unit to the Combatant Command
or other requesting Command who in turn will mobilize, validate and deploy RC units
and individuals within their area of responsibility. If additional RC unit support is
required, the requesting COCOM with submit a request for forces (RFF) to the Joint
Staff defining the additional RC unit or force capability required. The supported COCOM

has the responsibility to validate all theater requirements for both unit and individual
force capabilities.
HQDA will obtain approval from the SECDEF, who may delegate that authority, to
mobilize all RC units including SOF. HQDA will issue alert/mobilization orders
authorizing use of ARNG SOF units. NGB will provide USSOCOM and USASOC an
informational copy of the alert notification. USASOC publishes mobilization orders to
order all ARSOF units to active duty and USARC in coordination with FORSCOM,
issues alert/mobilization orders to Civil Affairs (CA) and Psychological Operations
(PSYOP) units. USASOC will coordinate with FORSCOM to assign mobilization stations
and arrival dates for mobilizing SOF forces. USARC will coordinate with FORSCOM to
assign mobilization stations and arrival dates for dates for mobilizing CA/PO forces.
USASOC will be responsible to validate the mission readiness of all SOF units.
FORSCOM will be responsible to validate the mission readiness of all mobilized CA/PO
units. USASOC will coordinate unit movement for ARSOF forces with the supported
COCOM and TRANSCOM, with information to HQDA and FORSCOM
At the outset of operations, the maximum lead-time possible shall be given for unit
mobilization requests as well as for alerting units. Upon stabilization of initial operations
and a reduction in the operational tempo (OPTEMPO), mobilization requests should be
received at DAMO-ODM as far in advance of the requested mobilization date as
possible. The goal is to provide alert notifications 12 months prior to projected
mobilization date. Early alert allows Soldiers to better plan for their mobilization period
and units to conduct pre-mobilization tasks over an extended period, leading to greater
unit cohesion.
Phases of Mobilization

This phase involves the normal day-to-day operations of each RC unit at its home
station. These operations are directed to improve the readiness of the unit for active
federal service. They include efforts to ensure the readiness of Soldiers and equipment,
including administrative Soldiers readiness, individual training and equipment
maintenance as well as collective training. Unit leaders must maintain operational
knowledge of the entire mobilization process and its command, control and information
reporting requirements. This phase also includes execution planning and FORSCOM’s
final selection of units to be mobilized. Commanders will ensure completion of required
Deployment Cycle Support (DCS) Tasks during this Phase. Phase I ends upon receipt
of an official alert order.
This phase includes all those actions taken by a unit following receipt of the official alert
or mobilization order. Required unit actions are described in FR 500-3-3 - The RC Unit
Commander’s Handbook (RCUCH). Actions such as final screening of records and
cross leveling (when authorized) are essential during the alert phase. This phase ends
with the effective date of mobilization of the unit at home station. At that time the unit
transitions from management under RC regulations to AC regulations (less pay and
promotion). This includes authority for man-day space funding from RC Headquarters to
pay additional unit members for full time surge. Commanders will ensure completion of
required DCS Tasks during this Phase. Complete all identified pre-mob tasks (to include
training and soldier readiness).
This phase begins on the effective date of the unit mobilization and assumption of
command by First Army. Command passes to First Army with RC commands retaining
administrative control to support the mobilization process. Again, required actions are
contained in the RCUCH. Actions taken here include inventory of unit and individual
property, preparation for movement to a mobilization station, the dispatch of an advance
party to the mobilization station, the electronic transfer of data to the mobilization station
(MS) via Reserve Component Automation System [RCAS] Mobilization Planning Data
Viewer [MPDV] application and in “Deployment And Reconstitution Tracking Software”
[DARTS]. Commanders will ensure completion of required DCS Tasks during this
Phase. This phase ends with arrival of the unit at its MS.
This phase begins with arrival of the unit at its MS and encompasses all the actions
necessary to assure the unit meets required deployment criteria to include the
assurance of mission capability. Note that command stays with First Army from the time
of unit mobilization through the unit’s deployment. Actions at the MS include the
processing of personnel and equipment and the actual transition of the unit into the
C-4
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
active structure. This phase also includes any necessary individual or collective training
as well as appropriate cross-leveling actions, preparation for overseas movement
(POM), Soldiers readiness processing (SRP) and validation. MS phase ends when the
unit is validated as having met the established deployability criteria. This is followed by
departure of the unit for its port of embarkation (POE). Commanders will ensure
completion of required DCS Tasks during this Phase. This phase and the POE phase
may overlap since equipment moving by surface transportation begins the sea port of
embarkation (SPOE) phase before personnel depart for the unit APOE phase.
Complete all required GCCS-A required actions.
This phase begins with departure of the unit from its MS and also serves as the
first phase of deployment. It encompasses all of those movement activities at the
installation, the SPOE and the aerial port of embarkation (APOE). These activities
include the loading of equipment as well as manifesting and loading personnel.
Commanders will ensure completion of required DCS Tasks during this Phase.
The POE phase ends with departure of personnel and equipment from the POE.
Phases of Demobilization

decorations and awards and evaluation reports. Commanders will ensure completion of
required DCS Tasks during this Phase.
Theater or Service operational requirements determine the schedule for delivering units
and individuals to the appropriate demobilization station (DMS). Redeployment must
support post conflict activities related to the strategic end state, the transition to peace
and reconstitution. The ARFOR commander will ensure redeployment scheduling
visibility as quickly as possible. Commanders will ensure completion of required DCS
Tasks during this phase. Command of redeploying units passes from the supported
Combatant Commander to the supporting force provider upon “wheels up” from the
POE.
Installation commanders ensure that all records are current, including; medical, dental,
finance, legal, personnel records and logistics files, prior to releasing units or individuals
for movement to home station. Installation commanders will also ensure completion of
Deployment Cycle Support (DCS) Tasks required during this phase. Plans should be
made for increased Soldiers and family support activities at the arriving DMS, to include
support for welcome home ceremonies. Commanders will ensure completion of required
DCS Tasks during this Phase. DMS will complete all GCCS-A required actions.
The final phase of demobilization ends with release from federal service at the unit’s HS
or the Soldiers’ home of record. Units are returned to a pure RC status. Reconstitution
is an extraordinary action that commanders plan and implement to restore units to a
desired level of combat effectiveness commensurate with mission requirements and
available resources. Commanders will ensure completion of required DCS Tasks
during this Phase. It transcends normal day-to-day force sustainment. DMS will
complete all GCCS-A required actions.
AC units will complete and document SRP processing in DARTS. For non-unit related
RC Soldiers, SRP will be done at home station and verified as the Soldiers are
processed through a CONUS Replacement Center (CRC) and documented in DARTS.
RC unit members will have Soldier Readiness Processing (SRP) conducted at home
station documented in the MPDV within RCAS; MPDV data will be passed to DARTS
upon mobilization. ARNG and USAR unit members deploying as individuals will have
C-6
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
SRP validated (and completed, if necessary) at the CRC; the CRC will document SRP
completion in DARTS. RC Soldiers will draw organizational clothing and individual
equipment (OCIE), weapon and protective mask at home station and report to the CRC
with these items. IRR, IMA and retiree recalls will draw these items at the central issue
facility (CIF) supporting the CRC. If the CRCs are not activated, all RC personnel
deploying as individuals will mobilize and deploy through mobilization stations as
specified by First Army.
Cross Leveling
Army component requests will be forwarded through the chain of command, to DAMO-
ODM. Such coordination is essential to ensure a consistent and approved Army
strategy for mobilization of RC personnel and to ensure that required assets are not
available from the AC or other RC resources. Once authority for partial or full
mobilization is approved, HQDA will issue appropriate allocations throughout the Army.
Any requirement for the activation of personnel in the IRR will be requested by the
functional proponent and then routed to the DCS G-1 who in turn coordinates with, the
DCS G-3/5/7, to develop a sourcing strategy. If this strategy requires the use of IRR
Soldiers, then the request must be approved by the Under Secretary of Defense for
Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)).
TRADOC/MEDCOM/USASOC will evaluate or test for skill proficiency, certify skills and
provide MOS refresher or reclassification training as required for CONUS based
personnel. USAREUR, USARPAC and USARSO will perform these tasks in their AOR
within their capability.

Section 514 of Public Law 108-375 of the Ronald Reagan National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2005 repeals the exclusion of active duty for
training in sections 12301, 12302, 12304 and 12306 of Title 10, United States Code.
This repeal of the prohibition of Mobilization for Training (MFT) supports Army readiness
goals and will help the Army achieve a balance between the needs of the Army and RC
Soldiers. The Army recommends the judicious use of this authority and does not intend
to execute carte-blanche authority to involuntarily mobilize RC Soldiers to achieve
training, readiness and mobilization goals. The Army will use MFT authority only after
traditional and voluntary methods are exhausted. The TAG and RRC Commanders
have the authority to mobilize RC Soldiers and units for training when linked to known
(current) or emerging future operational missions. The legislation does not change Title
10 restrictions or current DoD mobilization policies. The use of MFT authority will be
funded by the operational funds to which the mobilization is linked.
FORSCOM will promulgate guidelines and procedures for implementing this authority.
Approval of MFT will be tied to a future rotation negating the need for SECDEF approval
to deploy affected Soldiers to theater.
To realize the full potential of modern technology, the Army, is developing and fielding
comprehensive automated mobilization systems that enables commanders and
subordinate commands to fully utilize mobilization-processing capabilities. There are
numerous systems – both classified and unclassified - that support mobilization
automation, from systems that support planning and execution (request for forces -
RFF) to orders processing and to unit and individual SRP and tracking. These systems
include:

Annex D (Logistics)
Purpose
Army logisticians are fully engaged in supporting our Army at war and the ongoing
comprehensive transformation of our forces. As the structure of Army forces is modified
to meet the new demands of a changing battlefield, support to those forces is also being
transformed. AMOPES policy charges the G-4 with the responsibility of developing and
maintaining the logistics support policies applicable to the overarching AMOPES.
Background
On-going operations since 9/11 have changed the frequency of deployments for AC and
RC units resulting in an increased requirement for logistics support and sustainment.
The Army supports national strategy by organizing, training, equipping and assigning
forces to various headquarters. The size of the force and mix of capabilities is driven by
the National Military Strategy, The Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan (JSCP) and
operational requirements enumerated by the regional and functional combatant
commanders (COCOM). This strategic Army role of providing forces to meet global
requirements is called force generation. Under the emerging concepts of the Army
Force Generation (ARFORGEN) model, the Army has the strategic responsibility for
generating the force pool. The force pool consists of all Army units available for
employment any where in the world. The COCOM and his subordinate Army service
component commanders, have the responsibility for organizing and tailoring the
required force to meet operational objectives and threats. Tailoring the force spans the
duration of the campaign and typically lasts for protracted operations. At the tactical
level Army commanders must have the ability to task organize the forces to meet the
specified and implied missions at their level. Extended or protracted military operations
often require the allocation of follow-on or rotation of forces (both AC and RC) into
military operations that they may not have been originally organized to support. The
purpose of ARFORGEN is to support the rapid tailoring of forces to meet the COCOM
D-1

UNCLASSIFIED
requirements. AMOPES extends ARFORGEN beyond the initial force generation level
to each level/phase of mobilization authority, to include arm, fix, fuel, move, sustain and
man CONUS based Army forces going through the mobilization process, enabling them
to deploy globally.
General Policies
The following policies will govern logistical support of mobilization and deployment until
events or circumstances mandate exceptions or modifications.
• The priority for critical tasks logistics support will be IAW Annex C (Operations).
• Planning will consider the capabilities of other Services and Federal departments, as
well as Host Nation Support (HNS) and the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program
(LOGCAP) to ensure maximum availability of resources and support beyond the
capabilities of the Army.
• Policies and procedures stated in AR 700-127 for Integrated Logistics Support (ILS)
will continue in force during mobilization and deployment, to include the acquisition
of electronic warfare systems accorded quick reaction capability status.
• Host Nation Support (HNS) is an integral part of logistics planning and execution and
must be considered in the planning process.
D-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
• Regardless of what level mobilization occurs, all United States Army Reserve
(USAR) and Army National Guard (ARNG) equipment is constrained from
redistribution outside the original owning component, except as specified by DoD
Directive 1225.6. This constraint includes equipment not yet delivered by the
manufacturer, which was procured under the Dedicated Procurement Program
(DPP) with National Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation (NGREA) funds or
otherwise directed for issue to the RC by Congress or the SECDEF. Reserve
component equipment can be withdrawn or diverted IAW DoD Directive 1225.6.
ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs may request exception to this policy through DAMO-
ODR. Approval authority rests with SECDEF but may be delegated to ASA level.
Pending current policy changes.
• Use of security assistance assets will be considered only when legal authority is
granted to the DoD and delegated to the CJCS. Procedures will be followed as
outlined in MCM-169-91, 26 September 1991, subject, Joint Staff Materiel Allocation
Policies and Procedural Guidelines for International Logistics Matters during Crisis
and War. USASAC should be consulted for advice when considering the use of
security assistance assets.
The sources of all assumed logistics support will be identified in planning documents.
IAW DOD Instruction 3020.37, identify essential contracts. Planners must ensure
contractors have plans for continuing essential services during crises and deploying if
necessary to the theater of operations and planners must also prepare contingency
plans for obtaining the essential services from alternate sources should the contractor
default.
D-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
The logistics support system must be capable of operating under the threat of, or actual
use of, chemical, biological and nuclear weapons. Logistics support plans should
provide for alternate means of control, routes of delivery and sources of support. Plans
for massive nuclear attack should provide for increased reliance on civilian sources for
consumables, utilities and services.
Army Materiel Command (AMC), Forces Command (FORSCOM) and the Installation
Management Command (IMCOM), in partnership with other logistical / sustainment
activities and agencies provide the required support to sustain the ARFORGEN
mobilization process.
The requisitioning system will operate IAW AR 725-50. Changes necessary to meet
emergency conditions will be announced by G-3/5/7 in coordination with the G-4. Below
the wholesale level, substitution for Class VII Military Specification (MILSPEC) items will
be accomplished IAW AR 710-2. Policies, procedures and guidance prescribed by
Common Table of Allowances (CTA) 50-900 will remain in effect during mobilization and
deployment.
Logistics Assumptions
D-4
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
• Industrial mobilization may not keep pace with force mobilization or the demands of
units engaged in training and combat. Required sustaining rates for many critical
items may not be achieved for extended periods.
• Funding flow will be in accordance with HQDA, Army Budget Office (ABO) guidance
which will be published within 72 hours after operations commence.
Logistics planning and support progresses sequentially through the three phases of the
ARFORGEN process, Reset/Train, Ready and Available, many of the logistics planning
and support processes normally performed in pre-mobilization and mobilization will be
completed ahead of time during the semi-annual ARFORGEN synchronization
conference. Mobilization notification, movement to and activities at the A/SPOE,
movement to the Aerial/Sea Port of Debarkation (A/SPOD), Joint Reception, Staging,
Onward-movement and Integration (RSOI), in-theater sustainment operations and
reconstitution actions also require AMOPES logistics plans. AMOPES logistics plans
identify equipment, supply and services, maintenance and personnel actions /
requirements from the pre-mobilization (or home station) phase to the logistics hand-off
when the unit moves to the in-theater A/SPOD. (AMOPES also includes sustainment
support to the deployed forces as well as management of the industrial base due to the
increased requirements of deployed forces). AMOPES logistics planning also includes
the unit moves from the in-theater A/SPOE to the home station A/SPOD,
demobilization, reconstitution and reset actions. COCOM logistics plans outline the in-
theater sustainment actions required during Joint Operations, including RSOI actions

into and out of the theater and while the unit is in theater. Information and coordination
actions are included in both AMOPES and COCOM logistics support planning.
Ready Phase - (Alert, Update Status, Cross Level Equipment, Assemble and move
to Training Area, Validation). During the Ready Phase, a unit MTOE will be
augmented with additional equipment to increase its readiness level or the unit may
receive pre-deployment training equipment in order to meet training requirements.
Larger unit training (Company/Battalion to BCT) occurs which places increased
demands on the supply and maintenance systems. Maintenance is increased to meet
training requirements for successful completion of Mission Readiness Exercise (MRE),
Combat Training Center (CTC), etc. Upon validation, all units (AC and RC) will advance
to the Available force pool regardless of whether they are mobilized for deployment
during that portion of their unit operational cycle. The Unit(s) logistics readiness is
reviewed by FORSCOM, National Guard Bureau and the Office of the Chief Army
Reserve, Maintenance Assistance and Instruction Team (MAIT), or AMC AFSB
Directorate of Logistics (DOL). Supply and maintenance requirements are forwarded to
the A/SPOE. AMC/Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and/or NGB/OCAR MAIT units fill
supply parts requisitions, determine and fill Authorized Stock(age) List (ASL),
Prescribed Load Listing (PLL), Authorized Basic Load (ABL), To Accompany Troops
(TAT) requirements and perform field/sustainment level maintenance. Mobilizing units
will execute mobilization plans IAW FORMDEPS. Additional logistical guidance is
published in FORSCOM Regulations: 700-3 and 55-1.
Available Phase – (Final cross level of equipment and movement to POE). During
the available phase if mobilized, units will deploy with MTOE plus additional equipment
above MTOE to meet theater specific mission requirements or augmented with
additional equipment. During this phase the unit is informed of which items to deploy
and which items not to take because of being provided Theater Provided Equipment
(TPE) or APS. During this phase, the unit readiness report is reviewed by First Army
and FORSCOM. FORSCOM, AMC and IMCOM will assist units in cross leveling
equipment. During this phase, the unit logistics readiness is reviewed by NGB/OCAR
Maintenance Assistance and Instruction Team (MAIT) or AMC AFSB Directorate of
Logistics (DOL). The unit logistics readiness is validated by the IMCOM garrison
Directorate of Logistics and reviewed by First Army and FORSCOM. Field and
sustainment level maintenance units and AMC/Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and/or
NGB/OCAR MAIT units will fill supply parts requisitions, determine and fill Authorized

UNCLASSIFIED
Stock(age) List (ASL)/ Prescribed Load Listing (PLL)/Authorized Basic Load (ABL) To
Accompany Troops (TAT) requirements and perform field/sustainment level
maintenance. New unit location Information is provided to Logistics Support Agency
(LOGSA) through the Installation DODAAC Coordinator so all unfilled supply parts or
ASL/PLL/ABL requisitions and maintenance requirements can be forwarded to the in-
theater Joint RSOI unit, Theater Support Command (TSC) and AMC Army Field
Support Brigade for supply/service and maintenance planning.
While a unit is processing through the three phases of ARFORGEN, the Program
Executive Offices (PEOs) and Army Materiel Command Program Managers (AMC PMs)
in coordination with the DOLs when still on an installation will field new equipment
throughout the mobilization process in accordance with the semi annual synchronization
plans and providing operational training through ready and reset phases. New
equipment training (NET) teams provide instruction on new equipment use,
maintenance and supply parts. DOLs provide maintenance and supply support and may
be required to provide storage of equipment for New Equipment Fieldings as required.
With the concurrence of the COCOM, new equipment may be pushed to a deployed
unit. AMC Army Field Support Brigade (AFSB’s) will assist the unit with new equipment
integration.
Deployment Phase. During unit movement to the A/SPOD; AMC’s AFSB’s and the
gaining TSC review A/SPOE reports on unit supply and maintenance requirements and
commence planning sustainment support actions for the unit in theater. Unit movement
to the A/SPOE will be conducted IAW FORSCOM Regulation 55-1. Both AMC and the
TSC monitor the supply parts forward flow, plan for Class IX RSOI operations and
manage Class IX parts integration into maintenance cycles to improve/maintain unit
logistics readiness. Upon in-theater unit arrival, AMC and TSC conduct logistics RSOI
to include Field/Sustainment maintenance. Units coordinate with the AMC and TSC
Class VII item manager for Theater Provided Equipment (TPE) or APS. AMC and the
TSC provide logistics sustainment planning and execution based on COCOM
requirements while the unit is in-theater. Requisitions and reports flow from the theater
to CONUS base or home station on unit logistics readiness. Rollup reports for ACOMs,
ASCCs and DRUs will also come from the TSC/Army Sustainment Command (ASC)
providing information for senior decision makers in supply and maintenance activities.
AMC TSCs, AFSC units and the LOGCAP support unit execute supply, maintenance,
services and contracting support functions.
Redeployment Phase. Once the unit is alerted for redeployment back to home station,
unit supply and maintenance personnel report unit logistics readiness status to the
ASCC and TSC in-theater RSOI. AMC Field/Sustainment maintenance units provide
maintenance services to units prior to leaving theater. Theater Provided Equipment
(TPE) is identified, accounted for and collected at Equipment Concentration Sites. AMC
and TSC forwards unit logistics readiness reports along with supply parts and
maintenance requirements for the redeploying equipment to the A/SPOD. After
completion of demobilization tasks, units enter the reset/train phase.

standards unless otherwise directed in the approved operation plan. FORSCOM and
AMC Logistics Plans (LOGPLANs) will include guidance and procedures necessary to
transfer materiel to support Army forces IAW JCS-approved OPLANs.
Unless directed by Army G-4, the emphasis will be to bring equipment to fully mission
capable standards to support reconstitution of Army forces in support of OPLANS. The
overriding constraints during demobilization are preserving the Army's ability to
reconstitute and conserve resources (equipment and funding). Serviceable equipment
must be placed in the hands of OPLAN aligned units. The most readily available source
of equipment for the reconstituting force is obtained by restoring unserviceable items to
fully mission capability using spare parts in the supply system and from non-repairable
items. Unserviceable equipment will be restored as rapidly as possible at the lowest
level of maintenance.
• Repair emphasis for all equipment will be on generating end items available for

Purpose
HQDA G-1 will provide individual and unit military manpower guidance in support of
Combatant Commanders during contingency operations around the world. Use military,
federal, civilian and contractor manpower in support of operations to the maximum
extent authorized by law.
Statutory Authorities
When the President has ordered members of the Selected Reserve and the IRR to
active duty, they will be activated or mobilized according to 10 USC 12301, 10 USC
12302, 10 USC 12304, applicable Presidential Executive Orders, Department of
Defense directives and policies and Army policies. Units and/or individual Soldiers may
be ordered to active duty under 10 USC 12302 or 12304 for the sole purpose of training.
Required training linked to mobilization (e.g. Initial Entry Training, Basic Officer Leader
Course, Warrant Officer Leader Course and Warrior Transition Course) is authorized
and will not count against the statutory limits set for involuntary mobilizations.

Legal Authorities
Executive Order 13223, Section 2 - Allows for the orderly administration of personnel
within the armed forces. The following authorities vested in the President are hereby
invoked to the full extent provided by the terms thereof: section 527 of Title 10, United
States Code, to suspend the operation of sections 523, 525 and 526 of that title,
regarding officer and warrant officer strength and distribution; and sections 123, 123a
and 12006 of title 10, United States Code, to suspend certain laws relating to promotion,
involuntary retirement and separation of commissioned officers; end strength limitations;
and Reserve Component officer strength limitations.
The SECDEF delegated to the Secretaries of the Military Departments the President’s
authorities under sections 123, 123a, 527, 12006, 12011, 12012 and 12305 of Title 10
USC. The Secretaries of the Military Departments shall coordinate their exercise of the
authorities delegated with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff or his designee and
the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness or his designee prior to
their announcement. The authorities delegated may be further delegated to Civilian
subordinates who are appointed to their offices by the President, by and with the
consent of the Senate.
Planning Procedures
Normal peacetime procedures for personnel identification and acquisition for entry into
the Army will continue UP 10 USC 12304, Presidential Reserve Call-up (PRC). A PRC
does not involve expansion of the Active Army force structure; therefore, significant
changes to peacetime acquisition procedures are not anticipated. However, depending
upon the number of fillers required for deployed and deploying units and backfill
E-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
required for non-deploying units, some realignment of schedules for newly accessed
Soldiers reporting to Army Reception Battalions may be anticipated.
Partial Mobilization and PRC: In the event of OPLAN execution in which a declaration of
partial mobilization is issued, many changes can be expected to recruiting missions and
previously approved reporting dates for Initial Entry Training (IET).
Partial Mobilization is the lowest level of mobilization in which IRR Soldiers can be
involuntarily ordered to AD. All identified IRR Soldiers and Retirees will be ordered to
an installation with a reception battalion and a clothing initial issue point (CIIP). These
Soldiers may require basic skill refresher training in order to validate their skills prior to
receiving initial assignment instructions.
Members of the Delayed Entry Program (DEP) will report for IET as scheduled during a
PRC or Partial Mobilization.
RC Enlisted Soldiers assigned to an RC unit, but who have not completed IET, will
muster with their units at home station or alternate designated unit assembly point
during a PRC, Partial Mobilization, or Full Mobilization. The unit commander will confirm
the training status of these Soldiers at muster. During PRC and partial mobilization,
unskilled Soldiers will be transferred to the servicing Regional Readiness Command
(RRC) or Joint Forces Headquarters – State (JFHQ-ST) for accountability. Unskilled
Soldiers will attend IET IAW their original training orders unless HQDA directs
acceleration of training. The appropriate RRC, GOCOM or JFHQ-ST will coordinate with
the servicing USAREC recruiting battalion or NGB-ARP-RRM-ROC and arrange
transportation for unskilled Soldiers so they arrive at the Military Entrance Processing
Station (MEPS), as scheduled. The following procedures for obtaining accelerated
training will be followed when directed by DA:
When accelerated training guidance has been issued by DA, the unit commander, upon
receipt of unit alert notification, will identify eligible untrained Soldiers and order them to
the servicing MEPS during the unit muster along with necessary personnel records.
The unit commander will coordinate movement of these Soldiers to the MEPS with the
servicing USAREC Recruiting Battalion or State Military Personnel Officer (MILPO).
At the MEPS, the Soldiers will be scheduled by the Guidance Counselor for an
accelerated training seat in their enlistment MOS. When a training seat cannot be
obtained in their enlistment MOS, a Soldiers may volunteer with the concurrence of the
JFHQ-ST or RRC for training in another MOS required by the RC unit of enlistment or
E-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
an MOS based upon the needs of the Army and their qualifications. HQDA, G-1 will
provide guidance which will be dependent upon the mobilization situation.
After obtaining an accelerated training seat, the MEPS will provide orders reassigning
the Soldiers to the appropriate training center. The Soldiers will be sent immediately to
the training base during Full Mobilization. During Partial Mobilization, the Soldiers will be
sent to training as soon as practicable. These Soldiers will be given assignment
instructions by Human Resources Command (HRC) after training. When practicable,
they should be assigned to their original unit of assignment.
Full Mobilization (UP 10 USC 12301): At declaration of Full mobilization all existing
training seat reservations for entry on Active Duty for Training (ADT) are canceled and
new training programs are established using Mobilization Programs of Instruction (MOB
POI) for all courses. The following additional actions are anticipated:
USAREC will be directed to order to AD available DEP members. HQDA, G-1 will
provide guidance for exceptions to activation. DEP members who are high school
graduates, or who are not enrolled in high school on M-day, may be ordered to
immediate AD. Seventeen-year-old DEP personnel will not be ordered to AD until their
delayed entry date. If possible, DEP members ordered to AD will be offered training in
the MOS, or within the same Career Management Field (CMF) if training is not available
in the MOS for which they were originally recruited. However, AD will not be delayed
due to the lack of an available training vacancy in their chosen MOS or CMF.
RC unit Soldiers who have not completed IET will be scheduled for training as soon as
possible. These members will be trained in the MOS for which they were recruited or
within the same CMF if training is not available in that MOS. However, the needs of the
service may determine the training of these individuals.
When Selective Service is authorized, the Selective Service System will execute its
MOB plan (authorization to resume Selective Service is M-Day). Within 14 days of M-
day, non-exempted Delayed Entry Program (DEP) members will be scheduled to report
to MEPS. Turn-over of pre-designated recruiting stations to the Selective Service
System (SSS) will begin by M+14. Turn-over will be complete by M+30 and the first
increment of Retired Reserve USAREC personnel identified in the USAREC MOB plan
will be available for assignment by HRC-A. USAREC will reach its reduced level of
manning by M+90 and will report excess military personnel to HRC-A for reassignment.
Efforts will be made to place excess USAREC Army Civilians in critical DOD positions
E-4

within the local area. Remaining excess Army Civilians will be referred to HRC-A for
placement outside the immediate area.
The term "operational support" is defined to mean active duty, other than Active Guard
and Reserve duty, under section 12301(d) of title 10, United States Code; full-time
National Guard duty, other than Active Guard and Reserve duty, under section 502(f)(2)
of title 32, USC; and active duty, including active duty for training, or full-time National
Guard duty performed at the request of an organizational or operational commander, or
as a result of reimbursable funding.
Updated Guidelines
All duty previously known as Active Duty for Special Work (ADSW) now called
Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS). All duty previously known as Full-Time
National Guard Duty for Special Work (FTNGD-SW) now called Full-Time National
Guard Duty for Operational Support (FTNG-0s). All military service one-year or multi-
year recalls of Reserve component members pursuant to section USC T-10 12301(d).
Active Duty, including Active Duty for Training, performed as a result of reimbursable
funding. Full-Time National Guard Duty performed as a result of reimbursable funding.
Funeral Honors Duty performed not in an inactive duty status. Voluntary Active Duty
performed by recall of reserve retirees not receiving regular retired pay. Active Duty,
including Active Duty for Training, or Full-Time National Guard Duty performed as a
result of a request of an organizational or operational commander.
General Officers/Flag Officers (GO/FOs) are included in this accountability, but those
grades are further controlled by 10 USC 526 regarding accountability (over 180 days
will count against the active duty GO/FO strength ceilings).
The limits of the period of active duty set out in section 115(b)(2) of title 10 shall be
calculated from October 28, 2004, the effective date of the FY 2005 NDAA changes to
section 115 of title 10. Specifically, accountability will begin with orders issued on or
after October 28, 2004.
Neither law nor DoD policy requires any RC member to leave voluntary active duty
under 10 USC 12301(d) after 1,095 days. However, consideration is to be given to

orders specifying a period of active duty greater than 3 years), must be counted against
active duty end strength (either AC or AGR, but never both, consistent with tour funding)
and they also count against the Operational Support ceilings.
RC members performing operational support duty shall not count against Active Duty
(ACIAGR) controlled grades (E8, E9 and O4-O6)
RC Officers and Warrant Officers performing operational support duty shall not be
placed on an Active Duty List (ADL), regardless of the duration of the active duty for
operational support. They shall remain on the Reserve Active Status List (RASL) and
compete for promotion with other Reserve component officers/warrant officers.
RC enlisted members shall continue to execute their Reserve component enlistment/ re-
enlistrnent contracts. Soldiers applying for ADOS tours must ensure that their current
enlistment/reenlistment contract will not expire before reaching the end date of the
ADOS orders

Trainee, Transient, Holdee and Student account (TTHS): Trainees include officer
accession students, including students in Officer Candidate School and Warrant Officer
Candidate School and those active duty enlisted Soldiers who have not completed Initial
Entry Training (IET) (these Soldiers are not an available manpower source until they
complete IET). Transients include Soldiers not available for duty while en-route to a
new permanent duty station. Holdees include Soldiers who are reassigned from the
strength of a TOE or TDA unit and assigned to a holding activity. Examples of holdees
include Soldiers assigned to medical-holding detachments; Soldiers (prisoners)
assigned to personnel control facilities or other types of control facilities; and Soldiers
assigned to a transition center or point awaiting transition from the Army. Students are
Soldiers assigned to a non-initial entry course of instruction (normally, a course length
of 20 weeks or more), or Soldiers attending a TDY school course, enroute to a
permanent duty station. These Soldiers are managed by HRC-A and will be assigned
as they become available to meet individual filler, casualty replacement requirements
and other needs of the Army.
Ready Reserve: Selected Reserve: Selected military members of the USAR and ARNG
organized in units or as individuals are eligible for involuntary order to active duty
incident to a PRC or any level of mobilization during a time of war or national
emergency provided by law. Call-up totals must be within approved strength ceilings.
RC units are organized to meet specific mission requirements.
Troop Program Unit (TPU) Soldiers: Individual members of RC units may volunteer
for active duty for contingency operations. They should be the last resource used in
order to minimize turbulence and disruption to unit integrity and readiness. Those who
volunteer must obtain approval in writing from their Unit Commander. Soldiers may
volunteer to serve UP 10 USC 12302, Partial Mobilization or UP 12301(d), volunteer to
active duty, on ADOS orders.
Active Guard Reserve (AGR) Soldiers: AGR Soldiers are RC members of the
Selected Reserve on Active Duty in support of the RC; and in some cases, assigned to
Active Component agencies. Army Reserve and ARNGUS AGR Soldiers serving under
Title 10 USC will move in a Temporary Change of Station (TCS) status through the
deployment site/mobilization station with the unit to the theater, unless otherwise
directed by HQDA, G-1. Upon demobilization, these Soldiers are not released from
active duty and do not receive a DD 214. ARNG AGR Soldiers serving under Title 32,
must be separated by the JFHQ-ST, receive a DD Form 214 and mobilize/deploy under
E-7

HQDA, G-1.
Military technicians: Military technicians are Federal civilian employees who provide
full-time support for administration, training and maintenance to a unit. These
employees are referred to as “dual status” since they must also maintain a drilling
reservist status. As a personnel resource for contingency operations, military
technicians are included in the unit member category.
RC Soldiers in Active Army OCS: Soldiers should remain in OCS. Unit Commanders
should process a delayed mobilization order, effective the date of graduation. Soldiers
will be mobilized and assigned to Active Army student account and scheduled for
appropriate advanced course. As an exception, RC unit commanders may request
release from OCS and mobilize the Soldiers in enlisted status, with the Soldiers’s
consent.

Warrant Officer Candidate (WOC): Soldiers who are in training to become Warrant
Officers (WO) will not mobilize and deploy with their units in their enlisted status. WO1
who possess MOS 001A, unqualified in a WO MOS and who have not completed the
WO Basic Course (WOBC), are not deployable. Specific guidance regarding curtailment
of military education or acceleration of training will be announced by HQDA, G-1.
Individual Ready Reserve: The Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) is a manpower pool
in the Ready Reserve that consists primarily of individuals who have had training, have
served previously in the Active Component or the Selected Reserve and have some
period of a military obligation remaining. IRR members are in an active status, but do
not perform regularly scheduled training. IRR Soldiers may volunteer for active duty to
meet the Individual Augmentation (IA) needs of the Army. The primary use of IRR
Soldiers during mobilization is anticipated to occur during a declaration of Partial
Mobilization, during which, under current law, they could be involuntarily called to active
duty for 24 consecutive months. IRR Soldiers will be used to fill specific requirements in
AC or mobilizing RC units.
Involuntary Call-up: Upon notification from HQDA, G-1, HRC-STL will issue orders to
all involuntary IRR Soldiers ordered to AD. All IRR Soldiers receive refresher Warrior
Task Training (WTT) and MOS-specific refresher/reclassification training.
Voluntary IRR Call-Up: IRR Soldiers selected for active duty as volunteers will be
screened by HRC-STL and certified through official records as skill qualified. IRR
Soldiers who are not qualified for an MOS will not be accepted as volunteers for active
duty. During contingency operations, HRC-STL will maintain a list of IRR volunteers to
be ordered to active duty to meet identified needs. Under conditions short of a
declaration of a Partial Mobilization and upon direction of HQDA, G-3/5/7, accepted by-
name volunteers will be ordered to active duty under 10 USC 12302.
OCONUS IRR Soldiers: IRR OCONUS Soldiers who live in the area of responsibility of
CDR, United States Army Europe (USAREUR) or CDR, United States Army Pacific

contingencies and emergencies to provide essential support to military operations as
required. It is anticipated that Army civilian employees will deploy with combat forces.
AR 690-11 contains civilian manpower and policy guidance pertaining to MOB planning
and management and allows maximum decentralization of authority for civilian
personnel utilization and management during rapid expansion of the Army. MOB
planners must consider civilian personnel issues, where appropriate, when working on
their mobilization plans. The civilian personnel community, including Civilian Personnel
Advisory Centers/Civilian Personnel Operations Centers (CPACs/CPOCs) must directly
participate in the planning stages for mobilization. Planning will include designating and
training civilian personnel for mobilization cadres, where appropriate. All functional
areas of civilian personnel will participate in mobilization planning to include developing
and maintaining portions of the installation/regional mobilization plan. The objective is to
acquire and maintain a civilian force which can execute essential wartime support
activities regardless of operation magnitude.
HQDA, G-3/5/7 will authorize CDR, HRC-A to task across the appropriate Army
designation to fill Combatant Command identified emergency-essential civilian positions
during a natural disaster, contingency operation, or mobilization period. A civilian
personnel cell may be established within the theater Personnel Command (PERSCOM)
(or senior Army headquarters within the theater) to provide civilian personnel support,
advice and assistance on civilian issues to the Army Service Component Commander.
Reservists and military retirees subject to recall will not occupy E-E, key, or cadre

the responsibility of the Soldier to notify civilian employers and prepare family/personal
affairs prior to deployment. Unless waived, Soldiers are notified within 30 days of a
deployment. Ready Reservists ordered to active duty must report as directed unless
physically unable to do so (as defined by a temporary or permanent profile). Personnel
found physically not qualified or who fail to pass drug-screening requirements shall be

Finance Operations: The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial
Management and Comptroller) (ASA (FM & C) is responsible for the concept of
operations. The HQDA, G-1 determines the military pay entitlement policy for all
Soldiers and civilians deployed to a theater of operations in support of contingency
operations or OPLAN execution. DFAS partners with the ASA(FM & C) to ensure that
current pay systems support mobilized Reserve Component Soldiers and all other
deployed forces. DFAS and the ASA (FM & C) will have a Memorandum of Agreement
(MOA) in-place which outlines a partnership concept of operations on military pay
mobilization support.
Commanders should ensure that all Soldiers are enrolled in Sure Pay and that the
information is up-to-date on their records. This will ensure a Soldiers’ direct deposit
goes to the correct account prior to the Soldiers deploying. Commanders should ensure
all Soldiers process through a mobilization and a demobilization site. Soldiers should
have a complete copy of their finance packet from their unit and processing through a

Army Post Office(s) (APO) and Army postal operations are established as a part of the
Military Postal Service and Related Services (MPS) IAW DoD Instruction 4525.7. The
MPS is operated as an extension of the United States Postal Service (USPS). as
authorized by Title 39 United States Code (USC) which allows the establishment of
Military Post Offices (MPO) overseas, afloat, or in the US, when required by the military
situation. The Military Postal Service Agency (MPSA) is the single DOD point of contact
with USPS for all postal matters. MPSA communicates directly with DOD components,
the military services and unified and specified commands to implement uniform
worldwide practices and procedures. Army postal units are responsible for
administrative and logistical planning and coordination requirements IAW DOD Directive
4525.6-M and FM 1-0, Human Resources Support.
DOD 4525.6-M provides instructions for the management and control of postal effects
and for the processing, dispatch, handling and transportation of personal and official
military mail. Except for provisions related to enemy prisoners of war and other detained
personnel, there is no authority to conduct mail censorship at any time, including during
time of war. DOD 4525.6-M, applies to all MPO, postal service centers, unit mail rooms
and other administrative mail.
AR 600-8-3, Unit Postal Operations, prescribes policies and procedures governing unit
postal operations at unit and battalion level. DOD 4525.6-M will take precedence over
AR 600-8-3 in the event of conflicting guidance.
When the ASCC responsible for Army postal operations is designated as the Single

Annex
This annex establishes policies and procedures for the implementation of the DA Public
Affairs programs during mobilization. This annex applies to all phases of mobilization for
an operation. Appendices for individual phases of mobilization will not be added.
The Total Army Public Affairs program is targeted to Army personnel and their families,
civilian employees and the general public, that will result in an understanding of the
Army mission and the role each individual plays in the accomplishment of that mission.
The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs OASD(PA) will make
an initial announcement to the general public at each stage of mobilization for a
particular operation and that there will be no significant changes to current public affairs
policies and procedures.
Headquarters, Department of the Army, Office of the Chief of Public Affairs (DA OCPA)
will provide additional public affairs guidance as needed. Public Affairs guidance during
mobilization will be provided by DA OCPA or OASD(PA).
Anticipate and evaluate emerging issues of media and public concern and prepare
guidance to ensure a coordinated public affairs effort.
Consider and address how mobilization will impact emotionally and economically on
affected communities and employers.
Analyze, identify and document the manpower, financial and physical (equipment and
facilities) resources necessary to accomplish operational, mobilization and
demobilization missions.
F-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Identify all internal audiences. Determine the information needs of each audiences and
how best to reach each one. Ensure that subordinate commands have the information
necessary to accomplish their Command Information mission. Place special emphasis
on information programs affecting mobilization, e.g., host country, RC Soldiers
employment, Family members and Army Civilians. Emphasize informational needs of
Soldiers and Family members in overseas areas involved in evacuation operations.
Public affairs officers and PA unit commanders should plan and coordinate
administrative and logistical support at their appropriate command levels. PA TOE units
cannot be considered assets, as they will be attached to other units for support. Prior to
mobilization, PAOs and PA unit commanders will appoint an Ordering Officer and Class
A Agent from within the public affairs section or unit and train those individuals in the
duties to be performed. The objective of this is to allow the PAO direct access to
mobilization money for re-supplying public affairs unique supplies and equipment when
normal supply channels are unresponsive.
Command Relationships
PAOs at all levels will receive PA guidance from OASD(PA) and/or HQDA OCPA
through FORSCOM and their respective command. This guidance will be mutually
supporting of PA guidance issued by the supported COCOM IAW his authority for PA
policy established by DoD Directive 5405.3, Development of Proposed Public Affairs
Guidance (PPAG), dated 5 Apr 91. PAOs must have access to their commanders to
keep them informed of changing PA guidance and media ground rules. PAOs will
contact Installation Management Command (IMCOM) with any questions regarding
installation or infrastructure management. In the event that two or more commands are
on an installation, FORSCOM and USASOC are the executing agents for managing the
F-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
mobilization process and will retain this authority with close coordination with the
affected commands.
Communications Systems
PAOs down to Brigade Combat Teams should be able to receive the DoD-supplied,
audio-only news signal using available resources and equipment. As these units move
throughout the theater, when augmented with special communications equipment,
PAOs will either retransmit the signal or record the information for use in unit command
information publications produced in the field.
Alert Orders
When a unit receives orders of alert for possible mobilization the PA posture is passive
respond to query (RTQ) from the media. Units are not authorized to acknowledge
receipt of warning or alert orders. PAOs should not issue a press release based on an
alert order. Pre-deployment activities that are readily visible to the general public may
be acknowledged in response to query. Confirm only that which is readily observable
within limits of OPSEC. Spokesmen must stress that actual deployment is contingent
upon actual receipt of deployment orders. Alert orders do not guarantee that all units or
personnel will actually deploy. Spokesmen will not speculate on potential deployment
dates, possible destinations or comment on other aspects of a possible deployment
beyond a unit’s current, observable preparations.
The following statement may be used if an alert has just been issued: “The unit or
element has not received a deployment order at this time. We continue to train and
perform our duties as we normally would and are prepared for any mission that we are
directed to perform.” Queries that cannot be satisfied by this statement will be
forwarded to the next higher command PAO.
In the course of responding to queries, Commanders and PAOs may allow media
coverage of pre-deployment activities – within the limits of OPSEC. Coverage may
include, but is not limited to, family support center activities, mobilization processing,
chaplain programs and interviews. Again, spokespersons must stress that actual
deployment is contingent upon actual receipt of deployment orders.
Mobilization Orders
OASD (PA) is the initial release authority for reserve unit mobilizations. A single news
release will be issued each week consolidating all Reserve updates for that week. Upon
receipt of unit mobilization orders PA posture becomes active and units may
acknowledge their deployment. When a unit receives orders for mobilization, the PAO
may acknowledge that they have been notified for a deployment. However, the PAO
may not discuss specific destination, employment and specific numbers of equipment
F-4
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
personnel, missions or any other operational aspects. Units may, however, provide
general deployment numbers, general description of their unit’s organic equipment,
mission and capabilities. Commanders are encouraged to allow media coverage of
preparations for deployment and departure from bases and stations. Unit personnel are
permitted to grant interviews upon request. No discussion of operational details is
authorized.
The following statement may be used in response to query after receipt of a mobilization
order: “The unit is deploying in support of ___________to support the combatant
commander and to prepare for future contingencies as may be directed.”
National Guard units which have been alerted but have not been federalized will receive
PAG from their respective states PAO. Once the National Guard unit has been
federalized under Title 10 and is under operational control of the Army, then the unit
transitions from management under state control to AC regulations. Once at the
Mobilization Station (MS), the unit will receive PAG from FORSCOM or USASOC and
First Army (Training and Readiness Management Command).
Media Accreditation
Members of the working news media, to include free lance writers and photographers,
will be accredited by the host unit PAO. Requests from individuals who cannot produce
adequate credentials will be forwarded up the PA chain of command. Media must be
cleared by the Public Affairs Office supporting the mobilization station in accordance
with their standard operating procedure.
Arrangements for local news media are the responsibility of the host unit. Non local
news media arrangements should be coordinated with the next higher command PAO.
Arrangements for media must be made in coordination with the Public Affairs Office
supporting the mobilization station in accordance with their standard operating
procedure. National and international media requests should follow procedures outlined
in AR 360-1, The Army Public Affairs Program, dated 15 Sep 00 and FM 3-61.1, Public
Affairs Tactics, Techniques and Procedures.
Embedded Media
Commanders are authorized to embed media with deploying or deployed forces subject
to ground rules. Commanders will submit their requests to embed media in their training
at the mobilization station to First Army. Media embed/embark plans for deployment
should also be considered and should follow the direction provided by the FORSCOM
or USASOC, as appropriate. Officials there will coordinate with the supported COCOM.
PAOs should contact the FORSCOM or USASOC public affairs office for more
guidelines.

USASOC, in coordination with FORSCOM, is the HQDA and United States Special
Operations Command (USSOCOM) executing agent for the planning and execution of
all RC ARSOF mobilization. USASOC oversees, plans and executes the readiness and
mobilization of RC ARSOF using FORMDEPS the primary Army mobilization planning
document as a guide. All mobilization planning is coordinated with FORSCOM and
Installation Management Command (IMCOM) to ensure all resources are available for
all phases of the mobilization process.
ARSOF are those forces specifically organized, trained and equipped to conduct or
support SOF primary and collateral missions. Under certain circumstances,
conventional non-SOF forces may provide the capabilities required to conduct a specific
special operation.
Concept of Operations
warning order and a Prepare to Deploy Order. Theater Special Operations Command
(TSOC) will staff theater COCOM requests for RC ARSOF and forward to CJCS for
validation. Once validated, the CJCS will pass the deployment order for sourcing.
USSOCOM will identify the requirements to USASOC. USASOC may also request
additional forces for headquarters augmentation, training base expansion or staff
augmentation to supported headquarters outside of USASOC or subordinate
commands. USASOC submits approved RC ARSOF mobilization requests to G3/5/7
(DAMO-ODM and G-3 SOD). DAMO-ODM will staff requests to the ARSTAF using
DAMPS. G-3 SOD will assist USASOC in monitoring staffing process, as required. The
the SECDEF or designated Service Secretary us the approval authority for all requests.
DAMO-ODM will publish an alert order and distribute to USASOC and National Guard
Bureau (NGB). USASOC will alert designated USAR ARSOF units and NGB will alert
designated ARNG ARSOF units. DAMO-ODM publishes mobilization order for all RC
ARSOF units. USASOC will publish FORMAT 150 unit orders for all RC ARSOF using
DAMPS(U) orders template website. First Army will publish mobilization orders for all
non-ARSOF RC individuals and units identified to augment or support USASOC or
ARSOF units. USASOC will coordinate Mobilization Stations (MS) and MS arrival dates
with FORSCOM and IMCOM. Upon arrival at MS, USASOC passes administrative
control to FORSCOM to complete the Soldiers Readiness Processing (SRP) and
Theater Selected Individual Required Training (TSIRT). FORSCOM and IMCOM will
coordinate appropriate installation support to include administrative, medical, logistics
and training support. USASOC is responsible for validation and will coordinate
movement and transportation requirements with FORSCOM and TRANSCOM. GCCs
will manage TPFDD; USSOCOM maintains oversight and COCOM of RC ARSOF units;
and when appropriate, will coordinate transfer of RC ARSOF units to the GCC IAW
existing arrangement/agreements.
ARNG ARSOF
The designated State Joint Forces Headquarters (JFHQ) retains C2 of all ARNG ARSOF
during peacetime. USASOC has training and readiness oversight of the two ARNG
Special Forces Groups and coordinates with NGB and the state JFHQ for SOF unique
equipment fielding and pre-mobilization training and resource requirements. Once
ARNG ARSOF units are designated for mobilization, USASOC coordinates with NGB
and the owning state JFHQ for DUICs. These DUICs will be submitted with the
mobilization request to HQDA. When a DUIC falls below C2, only the CG, USASOC can
waive the requirement based on the ability of the derivative unit’s ability to conduct the
assigned wartime mission. Any waiver will be coordinated with the MS and First Army.
USASOC will submit requests for mobilization to DAMO-ODM with a copy to
FORSCOM, NGB and the owning state JFHQ. USASOC will publish ARNG
mobilization orders; the state JFHQ will publish unit and individual orders. USASOC will
publish the final TCS orders upon validation at the MS. First Army does not publish
orders for ARNG SOF units so states should look for the HQDA mobilization order.
G-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
USASOC will mobilize IMAs IAW AR 140-145 and the appropriate Personnel Policy
Guidance. IMAs will be alerted as individuals and approved by HQDA. The approved
mobilization request will be sent to HRC-S for mobilization orders.
Non-ARSOF Mobilizations
USASOC may request support or augmentation of individuals or units not within the
command. Any RFFs for non-ARSOF units or individuals will be coordinated through
FORSCOM with information copy sent to DAMO-ODM and G-3 SOD. Upon approval,
DA will task FORSCOM to submit a request for mobilization of the designated non-
ARSOF units. FORSCOM will coordinate with USASOC. Upon validation at the MS, the
requested forces will be attached to the designated USASOC headquarters.
Responsibilities
USASOC
USASOC, the HQDA/USSOCOM executing agent for all RC ARSOF mobilization will,
ICW FORSCOM, alert, mobilize, validate, deploy, redeploy and demobilize all RC
ARSOF. USASOC will conduct these actions using FORMDEPS as a guide and with
detailed coordination between HQDA G3/5/7 and FORSCOM. In addition to those
responsibilities identified in Annex C (Mobilization Operations), USASOC will:
• Coordinate directly with other Army Commands (ACOMs), Army Service Component
Commands (ASCCs) and Direct Reporting Units (DRUs) for support requirements
outside the capabilities of USASOC as well as un-forecasted Post Mobilization
Training Requirements and activities.
• Establish and maintain interim MOU/MOA with FORSCOM and other appropriate
ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs for ARSOF force mobilization, sustainment and
demobilization requirements. Coordinate with and provide copy to G-3 SOD.
G-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
G-3 SOD
G-3 SOD is the ARSOF representative within the G-3/5/7 and is located in the Army
Operations Center (AOC) and conducts Army Special Operations review of policies and
forces in support of USASOC. G-3 SOD supports USASOC DCS G-3/5/7 in all areas of
mobilization, as required. G-3 SOD assists in the mobilization/demobilization staffing
process with other HQDA staff directorates to ensure all RC ARSOF and RC non-
ARSOF meet all mobilization processing timelines. They advise USASOC on all
changes to mobilization policies, procedures and regulations as the Army changes to
meet emerging RC requirements and improve ongoing and future mobilization actions.
Administrative
USASOC will execute administrative support to the mobilization process using Annex E
(Personnel) and the PPG for the selected theater of operations found on the G-1 home
page. The minimum level of personnel readiness for validation of RC ARSOF units for
deployment is P1. Often USASOC deploys RC ARSOF using DUICs to ensure the right
force structure is available to the GCC. DUICs that are constructed and validated by a
DA mobilization order will be filled to a minimum of 90 percent of mission required
strength (MRS), with a target of 110 percent if cross-leveling is required.
Logistics
USASOC will maintain close coordination with HQDA G-4, Army Material Command
(AMC), IMCOM and designated MSs IAW Annex D (Logistics), to ensure all required
logistical resources are available for all phases of the mobilization process.
USASOC will also be prepared to support the redistribution of logistical resources within
USASOC to meet logistic readiness and validate units and derivative units during
mobilization. The USAR ARSOF units will be supported by USASOC directly, while the
ARNG ARSOF units will require coordination with NGB and the appropriate state
JFHQs prior to mobilization.
Move RC ARSOF from HS to MS and coordinate the TPFFD with Air Mobility Command
for the deployment of forces. Ensure that all TPFFD information is provided to
FORSCOM.
Coordinate all base operations support (BASOPS) logistical support for mobilization
with the appropriate MS.

Annex
This annex provides procedural guidance for the planning and execution of Graduated
Mobilization Response (GMR) in support of AMOPES. In 1990, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA), Federal Planning Guidance #2, "Graduated Mobilization
Response (GMR) Planning Guidance" envisioned the Department of Defense GMR
system as supporting National Security Emergency Preparedness (NSEP) planning by
facilitating mobilization in response to early, ambiguous and/or specific warnings. The
actions taken under GMR were designed to enhance deterrence, mitigate the impact of
a crisis and reduce mobilization lead-time. The framework of GMR included three major
stages: planning and preparation, crisis management and national emergency or war.
However, to date, in spite of its versatility, most activity under GMR has focused on
industrial base surge and more extensive industrial base expansion action. The three
stages are numbered in reverse order of severity:
• Stage 1 (National Emergency or War) begins with full mobilization and continues
through the end of the crisis.
The Army GMR mission is: Integrate industrial base consideration into Army planning,
to provide for the materiel needs of Soldiers and to ensure that the Army remains
responsive, deployable, agile, versatile, lethal, survivable and sustainable.

The intent is to provide guidance regarding legal service support for mobilization and
deployment operations, advice to sustain forces mobilized and/or deployed to the
theater of operations during the execution of contingency operations or operations plans
(OPLANs) and legal service support and advice to non-deployed forces and eligible
dependents.
Judge Advocates (JAs) are embedded in and organic to several USAR and ARNG
Table of Organization & Equipment (TO&E) and Table of Distribution & Allowances
(TDA) units. These judge advocates train during peacetime to mobilize with their units.
The mission of embedded judge advocates is to perform the traditional Staff Judge
Advocate (SJA) function of providing legal support to their respective commands in the

or that provide CONUS base support for mobilization, mobilization sustainment and
demobilization operations. JAGSOs consist of judge advocates, warrant officers and
enlisted legal personnel.
Legal Support Organizations (LSO) LSOs are TO&E units that provide a source of
trained manpower available for expanded operations and from which critical shortages
are replaced. Their primary mission, upon mobilization, is to deploy OCONUS to
theaters of operation in support of contingency operations and provide legal services in
all six core legal disciplines as well as operational law primarily at echelons above
division (EAD) and echelons above corps (EAC) level. Their secondary mission is to
augment legal support for mobilization operations. LSOs’ subordinate legal support
teams (LSTs) are programmed as part of force packages in existing OPLANs. During
peacetime they establish training associations with Active Army installations.
Mobilization Support Organizations (MSO) MSOs are LSOs which are included in the
CONUS Sustaining Base (CSB) force. They provide legal support throughout CONUS
during the entire mobilization/demobilization process to Active Army, USAR and ARNG
units, organizations, installations, Soldiers and eligible dependents. They are TO&E
units assigned peacetime to USAR Regional Readiness Commands (RRCs). Upon
mobilization, their primary mission is to provide regional mobilization legal support to
Soldiers and eligible dependents of all three components. They also provide
augmentation to Army installations and mobilization stations expanded or activated
during mobilization/demobilization; provide augmentation and backfill to Active Army
(AA) installations following deployment of AA forces assigned to those installations;
provide mobilization/demobilization support to USAR and ARNG forces; and provide
legal support to eligible dependents of mobilized USAR and ARNG personnel who do
not reside in the vicinity of an AA installation. Their secondary mission is to deploy
overseas to provide legal support in a total war scenario.
Trial Defense LSOs The Army Reserve has two Trial Defense Legal Support
Organizations. These are TO&E units whose primary mission, upon mobilization, is to
provide defense counsel services to Army personnel at administrative boards, under
Article 15, UCMJ, at courts-martial and when otherwise required by law or regulation
and authorized by The Judge Advocate General, U.S. Army (TJAG) or TJAG’s
designee. To maintain independence in peacetime, Trial Defense LSOs and their
subordinate teams operate under the technical supervision of the Chief, Trial Defense
Services and, when mobilized, under the operational control of the Army Trial Defense
Service.
Military Judge LSO USAR has one Military Judge Legal Support Organization that is a
TO&E unit whose primary mission, upon mobilization is to provide judges to preside at
general and special courts-martial, perform duties as military magistrates and serve in

advice and support to all military forces and family members as discussed below.
Judge Advocate Legal Service (JALS) personnel include: Judge Advocates, legal
administrative officers, legal NCOs, legal specialists, civilian attorneys, paralegals, court
reporters and other legal support personnel.
When mobilized, the primary purpose of unit legal personnel organic to Reserve
Component (RC) and Active Component (AC) TO&E units is to provide legal support to
their assigned command and unit personnel. Unit legal personnel should only be used
to provide BASOPS legal support to the extent that performance of this additional
mission does not detract from unit or individual preparedness, mission essential
operations and preparation for deployment. The senior servicing JA of the mobilized unit
(or unit commander if no senior JA in the unit) determines when unit legal personnel of
deploying units may be assigned BASOPS legal support duties which could impede
preparation for deployment with their units.

resources and personnel, provide legal support at home station to family members of
mobilized USAR/ARNG personnel IAW 10 USC 1044 for those family members who do
not have an active component DOD installation providing legal assistance services
within 100 miles of their home.
Depending on the situation and as directed by First Army, JAGSOs may perform some
or all of the above missions sequentially or concurrently. In a full mobilization, MSOs
may, as required, be redesignated by HQDA OTJAG PP&TO as LSOs and deploy to
the theater of operation to provide EAD/EAC support to deployed forces.

training for officers. Training at the Army Medical Department Center and School
(AMEDDC&S) will continue unchanged during partial mobilization and will be reduced to
the courses displayed on the Mobilization Army Program for Individual Training
(MOBARPRINT). The MOBARPRINT identifies courses required for deploying forces, to
include officers’ basic courses and enlisted MOS qualifying courses (as directed by
OTSG) based on projection of time-phased training requirements developed by HQDA
G-1. Personnel enrolled in courses to be discontinued will be accelerated for early
completion, if possible, or reported to the Health Service Division, HRC-A for
reassignment.
Applicatory training for enlisted personnel as a formal phase of school training will
continue during a Partial Mobilization at those hospitals conducting such training in
peacetime. Applicatory training will be conducted as a formal phase of school training
during a full or total mobilization, when the CDR MEDCOM, determines such training is
an essential part of adequate training for a particular MOS. It is the responsibility of
each commander to emphasize and ensure active supervision of on-the-job training as
a means of fully qualifying an individual in the required MOS.
Training of AMEDD officers in medical and/or military science courses will be reduced to
that which is absolutely essential to meet mobilization requirements. AMEDD officers,
although professionally qualified for award of an Area of Concentration (AOC) based
upon civilian education, require the officer basic leadership course appropriate to their
branch, to gain military skills necessary in the theater of operations.
The formal training of nurse anesthetists, critical care nurses, operating room nurses,
occupational therapists, dietitians, physician assistants and physical therapists will
continue during all phases of mobilization. Hospitals conducting such training during
peacetime will plan to continue this training activity during mobilization.
Under the conditions of full mobilization, the following education programs will be
suspended effective on M-Day: scholarships for AMEDD officers; AMEDD officers
enrolled in long term civilian training and degree completion programs. Depending on
the requirements of the AMEDD, students in a program may be permitted to continue
until completion.
Medical Intern and Dental residency programs are one year in length and approved by
the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. Officers participating in
medical or dental internships on M-Day will continue in such training until completion.
Training programs at all echelons will emphasize the importance of adequate and timely
intelligence and the role of the individual Soldiers in the intelligence process.

restricted to that necessary to produce those specialists for which a critical need exists.
Demobilization
All Soldiers who served in the theater of operations will undergo post deployment health
screenings and receive required medical care. They will be continued on active duty as
necessary to receive such care.
The Surgeon General will provide guidance for components of the medical evaluation

Graduate medical education programs train AMEDD Officers of all AMEDD Corps in the
specialties needed to accomplish both readiness and peacetime health care missions
for the Army. The programs also review physician and dentist requirements, determined
by the Army Personnel Proponency Division (APPD), by specialty AOC in concert with
the Corps Chief to ensure the proper balance of professional AOCs are maintained.
Prior to mobilization and deployments, GME will function as it has in the past; no interns
will be considered for deployment; no residents or fellows will be used as PROFIS fillers
while in training. Residents and fellows will be called to fill PROFIS positions only after
all other eligible PROFIS candidates have been used to support mobilization and
deployment. Key GME faculty positions will be exempt from PROFIS assignment to
preserve the GME programs.
General medical education will continue to function with overall direction and
supervision from the GME Office, Directorate of Medical Education. Policy for GME is
promulgated in TSG’s GME Mobilization Plan.
AC and RC physicians in GME will fall into the last category of health care providers
used for mobilization and/or deployment duties. The intent is to minimize disruption of
GME training to the greatest extent possible short of full mobilization, at which time all
physicians within the AMEDD will be used. AMEDD officers in GME programs, if used

Appendix 1 Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) to Annex N
This appendix will provide guidance on MWR policies applicable in the event of a
mobilization and/or deployment of total Army forces in support of directed military
operations. MWR doctrine is found in FM 1-0; policy in AR 215-1. Rest and
recuperation (R&R) policy is in AR 600-8-10. Due to the varying nature of military
operations, modifications of these publications may be necessary. Such modifications
will be announced by message from CDR, US Army Community and Family Support
Center (CFSC).
MWR Policy
MWR activities are necessary for alleviating combat stress and boredom by temporarily
diverting Soldiers and civilians' focus from the current situation. In addition, fitness and
athletic pursuits help Soldiers maintain individual and unit physical fitness levels
required for operations under deployment conditions. Availability and location of these
activities are dependent on local conditions. Commanders must be prepared to
reallocate resources and detail personnel, where feasible, to provide as broad an MWR
program as possible. The operational/theater command is responsible for providing for
and funding fitness and recreation equipment/personnel for deployed units. Unit level
MWR is specified in FM 1-0. Essential MWR programs for all units include access to
Army and Air Force Exchange Services (AAFES) facilities, Army Imprest Fund Activity
(AIFA), recreation and athletics.
Advise commanders regarding fitness and recreation equipment and paperback book
kits that are to be procured through unit distribution prior to deployment.
N-1-1
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Provide paperback book kits, audio books, newspapers and magazines for in-theater
units utilizing resources provided by Combatant Commanders. Provide SRP with
individual recreation items.
Require use of Child and Youth Services (CYS) Installation Mobilization and
Contingency (MAC) Plan Workbook to ensure an adequate plan addressing child and
youth issues is developed and executed in the event of mobilization and deployment.
This workbook and related planning materials may be accessed by the installation CYS
Coordinator at https://cys.us.army.mil.
Ensure that all theater OPLANs include the planning and provision of resources for the
MWR infrastructure to support forward presence and deploying units.
Ensure that consideration is given to developing R&R, pass policies and locations as
the theater matures in all contingency/deployment planning, to include resources to
support the pass site staffing requirements.
Coordinate directly with CFSC for any required assistance during the deliberate
planning process or at execution of MWR support and Theater Pass Program.

Policy
Family assistance policies, plans and programs are necessary to enhance unit
cohesion, increase readiness by providing Soldiers/family education, resiliency
programs, a system of support programs and services to address, resolve, problems
and issues for families of deployed Soldiers that are likely to impact adversely on
Soldiers performance or reduce unit strength levels due to family concerns. Core family
programs will be in place in both AC and RC along with plans to implement the support
network to provide family assistance during all phases of mobilizations/deployments.
Commanders at all levels must be prepared to reallocate resources, to include funds,
staffing and facilities, to provide as broad a family assistance network as necessary

Purpose
The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Financial Management &
Comptroller) (OASA (FM&C)), when told of a military operation/emergency, directs
which portions of this annex to execute.
The overall guiding principle for the comptroller community is to obtain adequate
financial resources for the commander to execute the mission. Proper and legal
stewardship of financial resources remains in effect no matter what the contingency or
operation involved.
The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) (OUSD (C)) and/or the Joint
Staff will normally direct the Army to estimate the cost of the operation by appropriation
and designated budget activity/sub-activity (e.g. airlift, sealift, rations, equipment
maintenance, procurement, etc.). The Army Budget Office (ABO) Contingency
Operations Cell (SAFM-BUC-I) develops the estimate using the Department of Defense
(DOD) Contingency Operations Support Tool (COST) and estimates from Army
Commands (ACOMs), Army Service Component Commands (ASCC) Direct Reporting
Units (DRUs) and the ARSTAFF as appropriate. (ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs are
referred to as “commands” in this annex.)

guidance will be provided from the ABO, Budget Execution and Policy Division.
The distribution of funds for operations will be IAW DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1 (Finance
and Accounting Policy Implementation). Budget execution will be IAW the policies and
procedures outlined in DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1.
• Administrative restrictions and limitations on the use of funds remain in effect unless
relief is granted by SECDEF action, Presidential Executive Order or Congressional
action.
• Antideficiency Act (Title 37 United States Code Sections 1341, 1342 and 1517).
Unless Congress provides legislative relief, all Antideficiency Act requirements are in
effect. DOD 7000.14-R, Volume 14 (Administrative Control of Funds and
Antideficiency Act Violations) and DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1 (Finance and
Accounting Policy Implementation) provide additional policy and guidance.
Accounting Operations
Use accounting policies and procedures outlined in DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1 and other
AR 37-series publications. Commands should plan to identify their costs for an
operation. In most cases separate accounting records will be maintained for the
operation. To assist in the isolation of an operation's accounting data, a Management
Decision Package (MDEP) code, Functional Cost Account (FCA) code, or limitation
code may be required or mandated.

Budget Integration and Evaluation Division (SAFM-BUC-I) will coordinate with the
Director, Program Analysis and Evaluation (DACS-DPD) and DFAS-Indianapolis
(DFAS-IN-AP) to establish a MDEP code for a specified operation.
Budget Integration and Evaluation Division (SAFM-BUC-I) will coordinate with DFAS-
Indianapolis (DFAS-IN-AP) to establish a FCA code for a specified operation.
DFAS-IN will issue a message to the field finance and accounting activities that
announces the new codes for posting to the current FY version of DFAS Manual 37-100
Commands are responsible for ensuring that their subordinate activities follow those
guidelines.
The theater commander will execute accounting operations in the theater of operations
based on the assets available. The DFAS in consultation with the theater commander
will determine if accounting operations will be conducted in theater. Doctrine outlined in
Field Manual 14-100, Financial Management Operations (New series number 1-06)
provides additional guidance.
If assets are available, use procedures in the AR 37-series and other DOD Financial
Management regulations as appropriate.
The Deputy Chief of Staff, G1 (DAPC-PRC) after coordinating with OSD, determines the
military pay entitlement policy for Reserve Component (RC) and recalled retiree
Soldiers and for all Soldiers deployed to the theater of operations. This guidance is
found in the Personnel Policy Guidance (PPG). Policy makers must make two
decisions as early as possible:
• Will Soldiers deploy to the theater of operations in a PCS or TDY status? (This
decision has major funding impacts on funding for military personnel and operations
and maintenance appropriations).
• For those RC Soldiers and retiree recalls called to active duty, will they be called to
duty in a TDY or PCS status from either their residence or Home Station (for
members assigned to TPU). For individual members, will TDY be paid from their
Residence/Home of Record, or another designated site?
O-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Once the decision is made, DFAS is responsible for transmitting the implementing
guidance messages to Finance and Accounting Office activities. DFAS must maintain
close coordination between HQDA G-1 and OASA (FM&C), Finance Command.
OASA (FM&C), through Finance Command, coordinates with the DFAS-I to ensure all
pay entitlement decisions are loaded into and executed by the appropriate pay system
Special Pay for Health Professionals: AR 37-104-4, Chapter 5 and DODFMR, Volume
7A, Chapters 5-7, 21.
Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH): DODFMR, Volume 7A, Chapter 26 and JFTR,

• A Presidential Executive Order is required to declare the combat zone areas for tax
purposes.
• All compensation for military service of enlisted Soldiers and warrant officers serving
in the declared combat zone is totally excluded from federal income taxation.
• For officers, the tax exemption is limited to an amount equal to the base pay of the
Sergeant Major of the Army plus Hostile Fire/Imminent Danger Pay. Income earned
above this amount is fully taxable.

HQDA G-1 determines the pay entitlement policy for civilians in the theater of
operations. OASA (FM&C), through Commander, US Army Finance Command,
coordinates with DFAS to insure all pay entitlement decisions are loaded and executed
by the Defense Civilian Pay System (DCPS).
DOD Financial Management Regulation 7000.14R Volume 8 - Civilian Pay Policy and
Procedures is the authority for civilian pay policy and procedures.
Civilian employees, who are U.S. citizens and assigned or deployed to an overseas
theater of operations, may be entitled to additional allowances. Two principal
allowances affecting employees assigned or TDY to a foreign theater of operations are
Danger Pay Allowance (DPA) and Foreign Post Differential (FPD).
Civilian employees will submit an SF 1190, Foreign Allowances Application, Grant and
Report, to their servicing civilian human resource office for the above allowances
Civilian employees TDY to an overseas area of operation will ensure their unit submits
their time and attendance to the DCPS on a bi-weekly basis.

Activation of RC units for operations will increase requirements for Army appropriations
(OMA and MPA) above the FY base budget. The Army Budget Office (ABO) will
provide budget estimates to OUSD(C) for mobilization costs.
Initial funding for mobilization will most likely be provided out of the base budget and
later reimbursed once supplemental appropriations are enacted. Administrative
restrictions and limitations on the use of funds remain in effect until relief is granted by a
SECDEF action, Presidential Executive Orders, or Congressional action.
Commands and DA Staff will develop pay, allowances and other operational cost
estimates for RC units mobilized. ABO, in concert with RC appropriation sponsors, will
determine whether reprogramming actions or supplemental appropriations are
warranted to fund RC requirements.
Based on the availability of obligation authority, provisions of the Feed and Forage Act
(Title 41 United States Code Section 11), also known as "R.S. 3732", may need to be
invoked to cover selected OMA costs. Likewise provisions of Title 10 United States

Baseline costs are the continuing annual costs of commands’ operations funded by the
operation and maintenance and military personnel appropriations. Essentially, baseline
costs are those costs that would be incurred whether or not a contingency operation
took place, i.e., programmed and budgeted costs. Examples include: scheduled flying
hours, training days and exercises.
Incremental costs are above and beyond baseline training, operations and personnel
costs. These costs would not have been incurred if the contingency operation had not
been supported. An example of an incremental cost would be flying hours flown above
what was programmed and budgeted.
Offset costs are those anticipated expenses funded in the annual appropriation but not
executed as a result of a contingency operation. An example of an offset cost would be
programmed training operation expenses not executed because units are now
executing an operation's mission. Another example of an offset cost would be the RC
personnel annual training pay not paid to those reservists mobilized for an operation
and therefore paid out of the MPA appropriation.
Tasks
Commands will submit cost reports and substantiating documents through the
Command G-8 / RM to Assistant Secretary of the Army for Financial Management and
Comptroller (SAFM-BUC-I). Reporting instructions and format are published under
separate cover. Command submissions shall be initiated in sufficient time to arrive at

The MDEP describes a particular contingency operation and records the resources
associated with the intended output.
FCAs are five digit codes that identify specific functions within a particular contingency
operation. The Contingency FCAs are in the F Series. The letter F represents the first
digit.
The costs for each operation will be captured by phase. The five phases are
Predeployment, Deployment, Sustainment, Redeployment and Reset/Reconstitution.
Predeployment

humanitarian assistance to civilian population in the area of deployment. Many of the
costs of providing support to the UN are reimbursable; unfortunately, current automated
systems are not totally sufficient for tracking and billing costs to the UN's specifications.
The following are some of the more common financial concepts applicable to financing
and accounting for UN Peacekeeping Operations:
• Baseline costs are those costs that would be incurred whether or not an operation
took place and they are included in the annual appropriation. An example would be
flying hours scheduled to fly.
• Incremental costs are those that would not have been incurred if the operation had
not occurred. An example of an incremental cost would be flying hours flown above
what was programmed and budgeted.
• Offset costs are those anticipated expenses funded in the annual appropriation but
not executed because of the operation. An example of an offset cost would be
programmed training operation expenses not executed because units are now
executing an operation's mission.
• UN Billable costs are costs for which the UN agrees to provide reimbursement
based on predetermined agreement and defined as follows:
Tasks
ACOMs, DRUs and ASCCs
Commands will report costs in the format prescribed in Appendix 4. Reports are
submitted monthly unless otherwise directed. In some operations, the US may have
forces under both the UN and US Command. If this is the case, costs must be captured
separately for these two forces since only costs incurred in support of US forces under
the UN command are eligible for reimbursement.
The UN will pay the US Government based upon head count in-country as verified by
the UN representative on the ground. Additionally, the UN will reimburse the DOD
depreciation of equipment provided to UN peacekeeping forces (Contingent Owned
Equipment (COE)). With respect to reimbursement of costs associated with equipment,
the prime document used to support claims is the In/Out Survey. Details are as follows:
In Survey - To determine its liability for reimbursement associated with COE, the UN
requires a schedule showing, amongst other details, the value of each item deployed to
a mission area. This schedule, to be prepared prior to deployment, is known as an In
Survey and provides details of all vehicles, stores and equipment deployed. Upon
arrival in the mission area, all COE is checked against that listed in the In Survey. Once
this check is completed, the In Survey becomes the prime document used for
accounting for COE in the mission area and for assessing UN liability.
O-4-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Out Survey - The In Survey document is maintained for the duration of the US's
deployment with adjustments being progressively made as COE issues and receipts are
posted. The In Survey is also adjusted to reflect progressive write-offs of stores and
equipment as they occur. When a contingent is to redeploy, inspections of all COE is
conducted by a representative of the Field Operations Division (FOD). At this time the
Out Survey columns of the In/Out Survey document are completed and the condition of
the equipment is recorded. This document, now showing the status of the equipment
and stores upon arrival in and departure from the mission area, forms the basis for the
US's consumption and depreciation claims on the UN for reimbursement.
The UN will pay the Department of Defense for specific support/items requested by the
UN, or approved by the UN; however a specific itemized bill must be submitted. This
bill will must be broken down by Class of Supply with as much detailed backup
information as possible attached. Ideally, the UN would prefer that the Chief
Administrative Officer in-country approve all requests and validate that the support was
received. This documentation should be attached to the bill. In a large-scale operation,
this may not be feasible. As a minimum, computer printouts of all supplies requisitioned
for units under the UN's control must be attached as backup documentation. The
Command will submit this documentation to the Assistant Secretary of the Army
(Financial Management & Comptroller), Budget Execution Division, ATTN: SAFM-BUC-
E, 109 Army Pentagon, Room 3D349, Washington, DC 20310-0109, DSN: 227-

Purpose
The mission of the Chaplaincy is to deploy and sustain trained and equipped Unit
Ministry Teams (UMTs) and individual chaplains and chaplain assistants to support
approved military operations. They must be prepared to maintain religious/pastoral
support to the Total Army community and all DoD authorized personnel.
UMT doctrine dictates that, whenever feasible, chaplains and chaplain assistants will
train, mobilize and deploy as UMTs. However, in operations where units are without
organic UMTs, individual chaplains and chaplain assistants may be required to provide
religious support.
Requests for individual chaplains and chaplain assistants will be submitted through
operational channels to Army G-3/5/7 utilizing the Worldwide Individual Augmentation
System (WIAS), unless directed otherwise by HQDA. A copy of the request will also be
sent to the Office of the Chief of Chaplains (OCCH). OCCH will determine how each
individual chaplain and chaplain assistant requirement will be filled.
Requests for UMTs without organic units will be submitted to G-3/5/7. The OCCH will
determine how validated UMT requirements are filled.
Pre-mobilization planning is essential at all levels of the Chaplaincy. The ability to utilize
existing assets during mobilization and to provide religious coverage to deploying units,
training bases and family members remaining on and adjacent to the installation must
be coordinated with the appropriate ACOM or DRU unit chaplain and included in each
installation mobilization plan. It is the responsibility of each supervisory chaplain to
ensure that all echelons develop plans for this type contingency.
Special emphasis will be placed on providing a ministry that recognizes the tensions of
a mobilizing community and dignity of the individual, offers the opportunity for each
individual to worship and is sensitive to the needs of families left behind/displaced by
deployment of their spouses.

Responsibilities
Chief of Chaplains
Chaplain assets will be managed by the Chief of Chaplains through his functional
counterpart at ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs, NGB, HRC-STL, JFHQ-S and installations.
The Chief of Chaplains will manage the activation and assignment of volunteer RC
chaplains and chaplain assistants, in coordination with ARNG and USARC.
The Chief of Chaplains will manage the activation and assignment of volunteer retired
chaplains and chaplain assistants, in coordination with HRC-STL.
Installation Staff chaplains will coordinate their mobilization plan with the First Army and
IMCOM Staff Chaplains.
Installation Staff chaplains in coordination with the chaplain of the deploying unit will
receive, orient, assign and/or reassign chaplains with the concurrence of the ACOM,
ASCC and DRU Chaplain and DACH to affect the best possible faith mix with the
following priorities: Deploying units, Training centers and Installations with large
concentrations of family members.
Care will be taken to maintain unit integrity whenever possible; however, the needs of
the service and faith mix requirements will dictate the feasibility of adhering to this
principle.
Installation Staff chaplains will ensure that they maintain adequate supplies and
chaplain kits to meet projected deployment requirements. Installation chaplains will

CONUS Installation Staff chaplains will develop religious coverage contingency plans
should TDA chaplains, especially those of shortage faith-groups, be deployed from their
installation.
Installation chaplains will ensure that reception stations are properly manned with
chaplains and chaplain assistants to provide demobilizing units/individuals every
opportunity for counseling/ministry.
ACOM, ASCC and DRU Chaplains will prioritize and justify requests for involuntary call-
up of DIMAs and submit through operational channels.
TRADOC Staff chaplain will ensure that Individual Mobilization Sites are adequately
staffed with trained chaplains and chaplain assistants.
Required Reports
During contingency operations, the Chief of Chaplains will require periodic personnel
data reports on chaplains and chaplain assistants who have been mobilized, deployed
and demobilized. IMCOM and First Army will require data for RC chaplains and chaplain
assistants in support of the installation chaplain’s mobilization mission and regarding
TPU and IA chaplains and chaplain assistants mobilized and deployed in support of
CONUS and worldwide operations. This data will be forwarded to the FORSCOM
Chaplain who will forward to HQDA CH. ACOM, ASCC and DRU chaplains will
accumulate and forward this personnel data periodically to the OCCH. OCCH will
determine the reporting time-line (weekly, monthly, etc.).
Training
The Chaplain Center and School will receive RC chaplains who require completion of
the Chaplain Basic Course before deployment or who need refresher training.
The Chaplain Center and School will receive RC chaplain assistants for refresher
training.
First Army Chaplain will coordinate training for deploying RC UMTs at MOB Stations.

Annex
This annex provides guidance for the planning and execution of Continuity of
Operations (COOP) in support of Army Mobilization and Operations Planning and
Execution System (AMOPES). In 1988 Executive Order 12656, Assignment of
Emergency Preparedness Responsibilities stipulated that “all-hazards” planning is the
basis for national security emergency preparedness planning. The Department of
Defense (DoD) began developing a series of continuity of operations plans to reflect this
guidance and enable the DoD to continue unabated mission essential functions during
any threat to continuous operations. National Security Policy direction issued in
Presidential Decision Directive (PDD) 67, Enduring Constitutional Government and
Continuity of Government Operations was signed by the President on October 21, 1998.
PDD 67 reaffirms national policy on Enduring Constitutional Government and the plans
supporting continuity of the Presidency, Continuity of Government (COG) and Continuity
of Operations (COOP) throughout the “all hazards” threat spectrum. Consideration
must be given to the potential for adversaries to conduct hostile operations within the
United States, targeting critical infrastructures associated with the Department of
Defense as well as critical national transportation, communications and energy
infrastructures. The events of 11 September 2001 underscored the critical need for an
effective and robust COOP program and associated policy and plan to ensure
continuous operations for the Army’s Mission Essential Functions (MEF).
Continuity of Operations ensures Army Mission Essential Functions are continued under
all circumstances. Guidance provided in AR 500-3 Army Continuity of Operations
Program 12 Apr 06 is comprehensive and provides the basics to execute COOP.
Concept of Operations
The Army G-3/5/7 has the primary responsibility for developing COOP policy, plans and
procedures. COOP is developed and practiced prior to and during a crisis to ensure the
Army and the Army Staff have the capability to conduct and sustain its operations. Key

Annex T (Training)
Purpose
This annex provides training management guidance for mobilizing units and individuals
within the context of the ARFORGEN process. Training guidance may vary somewhat
depending on which of the principal legal authorities is being used to mobilize RC
Soldiers (PRC, Partial Mobilization or Full Mobilization) but the ARFORGEN process is
the primary driver of training for units and individuals.
Within the context of ARFORGEN, train, mobilize and deploy units and individuals that
meet the requirements of civil authorities and combatant commanders.
In the Cold War era, mobilization was an infrequent event that was initiated in response
to a major crisis and was terminated as soon as possible after the crisis had passed.
Reserve units, which operated under a system of tiered readiness in peacetime, often
required substantial training after being mobilized in order to bring them to an
appropriate level of proficiency prior to deployment. This mobilization process was often
referred to as “alert-mobilize-train-deploy.” Starting In the 1990s and accelerating after
the terrorist attacks of 9/11, the ongoing mobilization of RC units and individuals has
become the norm. Reservists have served on active duty under Presidential Reserve
Call up (PRC) authority or Partial Mobilization authority continuously since 1994. This
reality has lead to a change in philosophy as to how the Army prepares its reserve units
and individuals for mobilization and deployment, a change that is reflected in the
ARFORGEN process.
T-1
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
ARFORGEN requires the Army to focus every unit against future missions as early as
possible and task organize units in expeditionary forces tailored to Joint mission
requirements. These expeditionary forces are called Deployment Expeditionary Force
(DEF), Ready Expeditionary Force (REF) and Contingency Expeditionary Force (CEF).
DEFs are made up of task organized units designed to execute named or numbered
operational requirements and those currently executing deployed missions to include
homeland security and homeland defense. Reserve Component units in a DEF have
been sourced against a future requirement, alerted for mobilization, or are currently
mobilized. Once DEF units enter the Ready Force Pool, their training will focus on the
designated mission, using a mission focused METL, unless deployment timelines
dictate that mission focused training begin in Reset/Train.
REFs are made up of task organized units in the Reset/Train and Ready Force Pools,
not assigned to a DEF. REFs serve under a designated commander and are designed
to execute full spectrum training and prepare for potential contingency operational
requirements. Training within REFs focuses on core-METL tasks that define the full
spectrum capability of its collective units. If required to surge, the Army redesignates
REF forces as DEFs to meet combatant commander’s request for forces. Once this
redesignation occurs, training shifts to a mission focused METL. REF forces which are
not redesignated as DEFs and which move into the Available Force Pool, are
redesignated as CEFs.
CEFs are made up of units in the Available Force Pool which are not in a DEF; they are
task organized to meet operational plans and contingency requirements. CEF forces are
capable of rapid deployment but are not yet alerted to deploy (AC) or alerted for
mobilization (RC). The Army will orient units on their planned CEF missions as early as
possible in the ARFORGEN process, but these units are not formally missioned or
resourced as CEFs until they enter the Available Force Pool. CEF forces alerted to
deploy or alerted for mobilization move into a DEF. Once this redesignation occurs,
training shifts to a mission focused METL
The below sections provide details on unit training (both individual and collective
training) throughout the ARFORGEN process. These are followed by sections
discussing training for individually mobilized Soldiers (i.e., those drawn from units,
Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA) positions, the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR)
and the Army retiree pool).
Unit Training
The unit commander is the primary figure in planning and executing training under the
ARFORGEN model. The commander conducts mission analysis, develops unit METL

and training guidance, designs training exercises, approves unit training plans,
assesses the unit’s capability level and recommends when the unit should move to the
next force pool. The assigned mission - to include assignment to a DEF, REF, or CEF -
is the focal point of the training plan.
R-Day marks the transition between Reset and Train. It is the target date to man, equip
and resource the unit to levels required to execute the unit training plan and begin
effective collective training to achieve designated mission or core METL capability.
After R-Day, units conduct individual and collective training focused on their core METL,
unless the unit is designated to deploy on an accelerated cycle and derives a theater-
specific METL.
Individual training includes IMT, PME and Functional Training. While in the Reset/Train
Force Pool, particular emphasis should be placed on ensuring that Soldiers receive the
training they need to become qualified in their duty position (DMOSQ) and to completing
PME.
T-3
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Certain types of individual training (e.g. MOS/AOC reclassification training and certain
PME and functional training courses) may be accomplished through the use of voluntary
ADT, Mobile Training Teams (MTT), IDT/ADT schools, variations of the IDT/ADT school
(e.g., “pop-up 2X2s”), insertions to already-programmed training load, or through the
reallocation of training seat quotas and involuntary Mobilization for Training (MFT). Any
changes to the programmed training load will be directed by HQDA, ICW the affected
training commands and their subordinate schools, using the Training Requirements
Arbitration Panel (TRAP) process.
Every rotational unit has a unique training strategy (CATS or template) that defines
required capability levels by Reset/Train, Ready and Available Force Pools. These
designated capability levels are the gates for units to progress through the force pools
based on the commander’s assessment. The unit’s training strategy also defines the
planned collective training events that enable units to achieve the required capability
levels.
Collective training that occur during this period will vary depending on the unit, but will
typically progress through crew weapons qualification, platoon/section level training and
company level training, along with battle staff operations training and battle command
brigade skills training.
T-4
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Units are trained to and capabilities are measured against, established capability level
requirements. Once designated capability levels are achieved, the unit can move into
the Ready Force Pool.
Units enter the Ready Force Pool following a collective training event when the
commander assesses the unit has achieved designated capability levels and the next
higher headquarters to which units are assigned or attached verifies the assessment
and approves movement between force pools. Units in the Ready Force Pool are
eligible for sourcing for full-spectrum operations, may be mobilized if required and can
be committed to meet operational requirements. Deploying units from the Ready Force
Pool constitutes a surge. Reserve Component units designated to deploy may be
alerted and mobilized in the Ready Force Pool to complete training requirements and
prepare for deployment. Command and control passes to the Commander, First Army
upon mobilization. First Army becomes the supported command while the RC becomes
the supporting command
While many individual training requirements are completed while in the Reset/Train
Force Pool, continued attention to individual training requirements must be sustained
while in the Ready Force Pool. For example, personnel turnover or other factors will
likely require continued attention to DMOSQ training. Other individual training
requirements need periodic retraining in order to maintain proficiency.
T-5
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Mobilization training requirements for some ASI and specialized functional courses
(e.g., postal handlers, HAZMAT) are not always projected well in advance of
mobilization. Once such requirements are identified, the commander’s training plan
should be updated to effectively address these requirements.
Collective training that occurs during this period will vary depending on the unit, but will
be METL-based, multi-echelon training ordered towards maintaining and improving the
collective proficiency attained by lower echelon units while in the Reset/Train Force
Pool, while developing collective task proficiency at the battalion and brigade level.
Units may be assigned to a DEF while in the Ready Force Pool. Those so designated
will transition to training focused around a mission based METL.
Assignment to a DEF may generate theater specific unit training requirements. See
comments in the previous section on training while in the Reset/Train Force Pool.
Collective training while in the Ready Force Pool will typically culminate with
evaluation/validation at a CTC or in a CTC-like environment.
For CEF/REF units, an OPTIMAL FOCUS MOBEX will be conducted to assess level of
mobilization proficiency. OPTIMAL FOCUS will be conducted IAW FORSCOM/ARNG
Reg 350-23. For DEF units, the need for an OPTIMAL FOCUS MOBEX will be
determined by First Army on a case by case basis.
Units may be mobilized while still in Ready Force Pool. Upon mobilization, units will
report to their mobilization station for post-mobilization training and validation. Post-
mobilization training and validation is discussed in greater detail in the following section
on the Available Force Pool.
Units enter the Available Force Pool when commanders assess they have met
designated capability levels for mission- or core-METL and the units have entered
their designated window for deployment. RC units in the Available Force Pool are
available for alert, mobilization, required post-mobilization training, validation and
deployment. Command and control passes to Commander, First Army upon
mobilization. USAR and ARNG units will spend about 12 months in the Available
Force Pool where First Army is supported command and RC is supporting.
Units in the Available Force Pool are at the highest state of training and readiness
capability. As such, they will ideally have few outstanding requirements for individual

Prior to mobilization, units can still use all of the options discussed in the previous
section (“Individual Training while in the Reset/Train Force Pool”), including ADT,
Mobile Training Teams (MTT), Mobilization for Training (MFT), IDT/ADT schools,
variations of the IDT/ADT school (e.g., “pop-up 2X2s”), insertions to already-
programmed training load, or through the reallocation of training seat quotas.
Upon notification of sourcing, units can involuntarily mobilize Soldiers for training, as
discussed in the previous section (“Individual Training while in the Ready Force Pool”).
Prior to mobilization, units will continue their collective task training, in accordance with
their core-METL or, if applicable, mission-METL and theater specific unit training
requirements.
There may be instances where certain types of training are best conducted within a
theater of operations using local training areas. In those cases, overseas commanders
will be prepared to conduct training for arriving units as part of reception, staging,
onward movement and integration (RSOI).
T-7
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Individual Soldiers may be used to fill vacant positions in units, either while the unit is
preparing to deploy, after the unit has deployed, or as part of an operational expansion
of active component organizations. These Soldiers may come from other reserve units,
Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA) positions, the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR),
or the retiree pool. All of these Soldiers will typically require some training after
mobilization, but the amount and type of such training will vary considerably based on
the skills and training proficiency of the individual and the needs of the gaining unit.
Cross-leveled Soldiers
Soldiers individually mobilized from a reserve unit or an IMA position and transferred
(cross-leveled) into a mobilized, deployed, or active component unit will typically be
proficient in their MOS. For Soldiers being transferred to units preparing to deploy, It is
important to transfer them at a time which maximizes the Soldiers’ ability to participate
in the unit’s collective training and theater specific training prior to deployment. Soldiers
assigned to a unit which is already deployed will typically need to complete theater
specific training prior to deployment. If the cross-leveled Soldiers is not DMOSQ, or has
degraded skills, they may need to be mobilized and sent to an MOS producing school or
refresher training prior to joining the unit.
Mobilized IRR personnel and recalled retirees may have degraded skills. Pre-
deployment certification training for mobilized IRRs (and recalled retirees, if directed)
normally is conducted using specially-designed mobilization Programs of Instruction
(MOB POI) and a 60-hour mobilization training week. As a general rule, mobilized IRRs
and retirees will be mobilized at designated USATC (TRADOC) installations and be in-
processed by a Reception Battalion (RECBN), then receive Warrior Training Tasks
(WTT), theater specific individual training, and appropriate MOS/AOC-specific refresher
training. Upon arrival, all mobilized IRR and retiree personnel (officer, warrant officer
and enlisted) will be evaluated by the MOS/AOC training proponent to determine if they:
T-8
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
The actual number of IRR and retiree personnel to be mobilized is determined by G-1
(ICW HRC-A and HRC-SL) through a detailed analysis of projected personnel
requirements (by grade and MOS/AOC) for specified contingency scenarios. The
composition, qualifications and deployability status of existing pre-trained manpower will
be considered in determining personnel requirements.
Institutional Training
The mission of training institutions during mobilization is to produce fully trained,
combat-capable individuals who meet Army standards for Soldiers assigned to units or
for immediate use as unit fillers and replacements. Augmentation of the institutional
training base by RC training units is expected during mobilization operations in order to
support needed expansion of training base capability. Institutional training support for
mobilization operations are very similar whether operating under PRC and Partial
Mobilization authorities, although there are some variations which are discussed
immediately below. Institutional training support for mobilization operations when
operating under Full Mobilization authority is discussed in the subsequent section.
During PRC and Partial Mobilization, programmed (peacetime) institutional training will
typically follow normal Programs of Instruction (POIs) and procedures, as well as the
regular training week. Compressed courses, longer training days/weeks and
implementation of the longer Mobilization POIs (MOBPOI) for selected courses maybe
be directed by G-3/5/7 (DAMO-TRI), ICW appropriate training commands to meet
specific requirements of the supported force. Some courses may also be terminated by

and Field Operating Agencies (FOAs) that are responsible for inputting data to
ATRRS are responsible for entering the tracking code on individuals deferred from
attending Professional Military Education. Army schools are responsible for entering
the tracking code for individuals who have been removed from a PME course due to
mobilization. A remark should also be entered in ATRRS to show what portion of
the course was completed to determine requirements for re-attendance.

• Individuals from mobilized units who are attending OCS or WOCS will have the
option of returning to their unit for service as enlisted Soldiers or remaining in
OCS/WOCS. Upon graduation, candidates will be commissioned/appointed,
returned to non-mobilized units and scheduled to attend appropriate BOLC or WO
certification training within 90 days of commissioning.
Upon Full Mobilization, all RC units and reservists not assigned to units may be
mobilized as directed for the duration of the conflict plus six months. Installation and
USATC MOBTDA will be implemented. Unless otherwise specified by G-3/5/7 (DAMO-
TRI), all courses will transition to accelerated mode (60-hour training week), graduate
their students and transition to the longer MOBPOIs taught in accelerated mode. Note
that MOBPOIs are longer than standard POIs as they are intended to train to a higher
level (train all critical tasks for the specialty) in order to produce Soldiers who are
immediately deployable without benefit of additional training in the unit. Projected IRR
mobilization training requirements are developed by G1 to support peacetime planning
for mobilization training base expansion, using the MOB ARPRINT process. The MOB
ARPRINT provides basic workload data to USATCs, Service Schools and Reserve
Component training base augmentation elements during peacetime for development of
training base expansion plans and resourcing documents (MOBTDA). The MOB
ARPRINT is developed in ATRRS, with TRADOC acting as HQDA’s executing agent for
its development.
Termination of Courses
Other Actions
Training loads for all BCT and OSUT companies/battalions/troops will have a maximum
programmed fill of up to 220 trainees; maximum fill of AIT courses varies by specialty.
The focus of noncommissioned officer training during Full Mobilization is to provide the
required numbers of fully trained NCOs to support the replacement stream. Training

Annex
This annex provides procedural guidance for the planning and execution of Selective
Mobilization for Support to Civil Authorities in support of AMOPES. The Army’s role in
domestic emergencies is one of support to a lead Federal agency and is executed
under the National Response Plan. Support refers to civil emergencies arising during
peace, conflict, or war. Requests forwarded to the Army for DoD support include:
support to special events, Military Assistance to Civil Disturbances, Military Support to
Civil Authorities to include the following emergencies: (hurricanes, earthquakes, forest
fires, floods, oil spills, radiological contamination, chemical or biological
accident/incident/or acts of threats of terrorism emergencies, power outages, work
stoppages) and request for aid to civil law enforcement authorities.
Mission
When directed by the President, or when authorized by the SECDEF, designated Army
forces will conduct military support to civil authorities under the provisions of the
National Response Plan or other response plans through appropriate military
commanders.
Concept of Operations
In response to a domestic emergency, the President or Congress may authorize the
expansion of the active Armed Forces by calling ARNG units to federal service and/or
by ordering USAR units and individuals to active duty. In past planning documents this
has been categorized as "Selective Mobilization." That generic term will be retained
here.
Several legal authorities are available to expand the active armed forces. Chapter 15,
10 USC, would normally be used to bring ARNG units and individuals into federal
service to deal with an insurrection. USAR units and individuals, however, cannot be
ordered to active duty under Chapter 15, but must be ordered under Chapter 39, 10
USC. Chapter 39 is applicable to both ARNG and USAR, for any type of domestic
emergency, but the President or the Congress must first make a declaration of national
U-1
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
The PRC authority (10 USC 12304) is expressly prohibited from being used for
domestic disaster relief.
Concurrent with, or prior to, any decision to federalize ARNG forces and order USAR
forces to active duty to counter a domestic emergency, is the formation of an
operational chain of command under which active Army and federalized or mobilized
RC units and individuals will operate. For a catastrophic domestic civil disturbance /
disaster relief operation the DoD, Joint Director of Military Support (JDOMS), in
coordination with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will designate USARNORTH
to establish a Joint Task Force (JTF) / Response Task Force (RTF) and designate a
task force commander. Federalized / mobilized RC forces are normally placed under
the operational command of the JTF / RTF commander.
Once the crisis ends, all federalized ARNG units and individuals are mustered out of
federal service and mobilized USAR forces are released from active duty.
Assumptions
The ASD, HLD will continue to function as the DoD Executive Agent for the planning
and execution of defense support to civil authorities in the US, territories and
possessions. The JDOMS will function as his action agent for planning and executing
military support operations.
If a civil emergency constitutes a national emergency, forces of the ready reserve will be
available for civil disturbance operations by order of the President or Congress.
Under conditions of partial or full mobilization, armed forces will be made available, as
required, for civil emergency operations consistent with the programmed flow of forces
in support of executed contingency plans.
Forces that are allocated to other OPLANS may be rapidly recalled and deployed
elsewhere.

Annex
This Annex provides operations security (OPSEC) guidance for mobilization, to include
equipping, training, deploying, employing and sustaining forces. The concerns and
actions apply equally in all phases of mobilization.
OPSEC is about protecting critical information from adversaries in ways that traditional
security programs such as information security and physical security cannot protect.
While these programs protect classified information, they cannot guard against all
actions that may serve as indicators of critical information. The OPSEC process
identifies critical information of military plans, operations and activities and the indicators
that reveal it and then develops measures to eliminate, reduce or conceal those
indicators.

protection because it can be compromised by indicators that can reveal it. Critical
information that is unclassified information especially requires OPSEC measures
because it is not protected by traditional security programs.
All personnel must protect critical information. The following items can be designated as
critical information of military plans and operations:
U.S. or allied units or organizations that may be used; their locations (current or
proposed), equipment (to include vehicles), manning, supply and readiness levels
The readiness levels of Army units or organizations and the location of the units
The numbers of troops, equipment and aircraft planned for specific courses of action
The length of time forces can be fully deployed and redeployed upon notification

The Critical Information List describes the information that is critical to the success of
the mission but does not provide specific details, especially if they are classified. The
Critical Information List should be unclassified to inform all personnel of the critical
information. However, it should be marked “For Official Use Only.” This is not

OPSEC vulnerabilities (indicators).
OPSEC Measures
Action control. Eliminate or reduce the indicators that can reveal critical information.
• Dispose of both classified and sensitive but unclassified information about military
planning and operations in classified burn bags or shredders.
• Properly mark, control and protect classified material. Apply distribution statements
to all documents, classified and unclassified.
• Monitor trash disposal. Routinely check recycle bins and trash containers in offices
and dumpsters outside buildings for classified or sensitive documents and papers.
• Brief all personnel to guard against "loose talk" to uncleared personnel or personnel
without a need to know.
• Do not discuss military plans and operations in non-secure areas to include break
areas, latrines, on public conveyances, dining facilities or at home.
• Employ the approved public affairs guidance for any public release of information.

• Use secure telephones and facsimile machines, landlines and couriers especially
when transmitting critical information.
• Conceal budget transactions, supply requests and actions and arrangements for

• During open hostilities, use combat action to neutralize the adversary's information-
gathering assets that can collect or process information.
Tasks
Army G-3/5/7, ACOMS, ASCCs, DRUs, Army Components of Unified and Specified
Commands must develop OPSEC annexes to support plans of approved
OPLANS/CONPLANS and no-plan contingencies.

Annex W (Complex Contingency Operations)
Purpose
This annex provides procedural guidance for the planning and execution of Complex
Contingency Operations (CCO) in support of AMOPES. Complex Contingency
Operations (CCO) is a part of the national security management structure codified in
Presidential Decision Directive* (PDD) 56.
CCO will bridge the gap between selective mobilizations for the support of civil
authorities and major theatre war (MTW) where Soldiers of all components are placed in
harms way. CCO will cover all operations short of a MTW, less homeland security,
which is addressed in Annex X (primarily focused on Selective Mobilization and
Presidential Reserve Call-Up (PRC), but could include Partial Mobilization). CCO are
characterized by crisis response operations, which serve as a bridge to the deliberate
planning process. Policies affecting CCO must provide capabilities and flexibility to meet
rapid, near term response requirements.
* Note: Presidential directives are signed or authorized by the President. The National Security
Council issues them. Many recent ones are classified. They have been given different names by
different Presidential Administrations: National Security Action Memoranda (NSAMs): Kennedy
& Johnson; National Security Decision Memoranda (NSDMs): Nixon and Ford; Presidential
Directives (PDs): Carter; National Security Decision Directives (NSDDs): Reagan; National
Security Directives (NSDs): Bush; Presidential Decision Directives (PDDs): Clinton; and
National Security Presidential Directives (NSPDs) and Homeland Security Presidential
Directives (HSPDs): GW Bush
The Army CCO mission: On order, alert, mobilize, deploy and sustain sufficiently
manned, equipped and trained forces to support approved CCO and demobilize forces.
Concept of Operations
The authorization to conduct CCO will originate with the President. That authority will
flow from the President to the SECDEF, who informs the CJCS and delegates
mobilization authority to the Secretary of the Army. The Secretary of the Army may
designate one of his Assistant Secretaries (ASA) as the oversight Secretary to

Army Forces. The Supported Combatant Commander will identify requirements to the
Joint Staff and the Supporting Combatant Commanders. The Army force provider will
nominate units to the Supporting Combatant Commander to meet those requirements
after coordination with applicable Army Commands (ACOMs), Army Service Component
Commands (ASCCs), Direct Reporting Units (DRUs), OCAR and NGB. Resourcing will
be handled in accordance with Annex O. Required pre-deployment training of mobilized
units will be accomplished and Non-Unit related personnel (NRP) deploying OCONUS
will be directed to the appropriate CONUS Replacement Center (CRC) for deployment
processing IAW AR 600-8-101. Combatant Commander directed individual training
would be accomplished prior to deployment into the theater of operations. These
requirements will be coordinated with the appropriate ACOMs, ASCCs and DRUs. RC
mobilization timelines will include transitional periods between units, actual employment
time in the theater of operations, plus all theater and force provider directed mandatory
training requirements (mobilize, train, deploy and demobilize). Upon completion of the
CCO mission, units will be reconstituted prior to demobilization.
• Units will maintain their peacetime chain of command until mobilization day.
• Army force providers will exercise Training Readiness Oversight (TRO) of nominated
RC forces for contingency operations during pre mobilization and demobilization.
• The Army must mobilize portions of the CONUS Support Base (Packages 1 - 7,
registered in the Global Command and Control System - Army (GCCS-A) to execute
the mobilization and deployment of AC/RC forces.

This annex provides procedural guidance for the planning and execution of Army
homeland defense (HLD) operations in support of AMOPES. Homeland Security (HLS)
operations are established as part of the national security management structure by
Presidential Executive Order 13228, Section 2, 8 Oct 01. Homeland Security (HLS)
employs the active and passive measures taken to protect the population, infrastructure,
area, possessions and territories of the United States of America. HLS:
1. Deters, defends against and minimizes the effects of threats, disasters and attacks
against our homeland;
3. HLS helps to ensure the availability, integrity, survivability and protection of critical
national assets. Presidential Decision Directives* (PDD) 39 and 62 governs the
authority for unilateral coordinated response by DOD. PDD 39 addresses US policy
on counter-terrorism; PDD 62 addresses protection from unconventional threats to
the Homeland and Americans overseas. Homeland Security Presidential Directives
(HSPDs) communicate the President's policy on homeland security.

authorities. HLD policies must provide capabilities and flexibility to meet rapid, near
term response requirements. This annex addresses mobilization of Army forces in a
Title 10 status and employment of ARNG forces in a Title 32 status in support of HLD
operations.
The Army HLD mission: On order, will alert, mobilize, deploy and sustain forces in
support of approved HLS operations. Demobilize forces IAW operational requirements
or mandated by law.
Concept of Operations
The authorization to conduct HLS operations will originate from the President of the
United States of America. That authority will flow from the President to the Secretary of
Defense, who informs the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJSCS) and then
delegates mobilization authority to the Secretary of the Army ASA-M&RA. The ASA-
M&RA will provide oversight for the alert and mobilization of RC forces being mobilized
in Title 10 Status. If a COCOM has approval for the mission to be accomplished in other
than a Title 10 status (Title 32), the NGB will coordinate with State JFHQ, HQDA and
FORSCOM for unit mobilization in a Title 32 State Active Duty (SAD). The Supported
Commander will identify requirements to the Joint Staff and the Supporting Commands
or agencies. After coordination with applicable Army Commands (ACOMs), Army
Service Component Commands (ASCCs), Direct Reporting Units (DRUs) and the
Director of Army National Guard the Army force provider will then source units to meet
those requirements. Sourcing guidance will be published by ASA (FM) within 72 hours
of HLS operation commencement and will be handled IAW Annex O (Comptroller).
Required pre-deployment training of mobilized units will be accomplished IAW Annex T
(Training). RC mobilization timelines will include mandatory training requirements,
transitional periods between units and actual employment time and demobilization time.
Upon completion of the HLS mission, units will be reconstituted prior to demobilization.
• Units will maintain their peacetime chain of command until mobilization day. Units in
Title 32 SAD status will maintain their peacetime chain of command throughout the
duration of that mission.
• For Units in a Title 10 status, Army force providers will exercise training readiness
oversight (TRO) of nominated RC forces for HLS operations during that units’ pre-
mobilization and demobilization
X-2
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
• ARNG assets may be the first military responders to any given crisis. These units can
be activated in SAD status at the direction of the Governor and will be under the
control of the State Adjutant General.
• ARNG assets engaged in response missions under SAD do not require a federal
mobilization authority and may not require a mobilization in order to accomplish the
mission. NGB will coordinate with HQDA/FORSCOM prior to states activating units
that will perform SAD missions. These units are not exempt from mobilization for
other contingencies. The mobilization decisions in these situations will be driven by
operational priorities.
• Duty performance in SAD or Title 32 status enables the ARNG to perform law
enforcement activities in compliance with USC Title 18, part 1, chapter
67,subsection 1385 (Posse Comitatus)
• HLS operations will be declared and approved prior to the mobilization of RC forces.
Mobilization authority must exist prior to commencing the federal mobilization
process.
• Partial units will mobilize under Derivative Unit Identification Codes (DUIC) if the unit
commander does not mobilize with the unit. A unit will mobilize under a UIC if the unit
commander and the unit flag is mobilized. Requirements will be identified in TPFDD
and CONPLANS.
• RC units will begin preparation for deployment upon official alert, IAW the provisions
of Army Forces Command Regulation 500-3-3 (FORMDEPS). (NOTE: An Alert only,
does not constitute mobilization authority for Soldiers to break their leases, or
terminate employment, etc.)
• HLD will be under the control of the Supported Combatant Commanders for mission
execution. HLS operations may involve other Services and Federal Agencies. Joint
Staff J3, JDOMS will be the entry point for all non-DOD requests for support.

published within 72 hours after operations commence.
• The Army Force Provider will fund Mission Rehearsal Exercises (MRE), if required.

processes put in place to systematically source those requirements without unit
intervention.
• Deploying units will receive the highest priority to fill deficiencies in equipment and
personnel.
• Data for Soldiers Readiness Processing (SRP) will be entered at home station prior
to movement to the mobilization station. Every attempt will be made to reduce
replication and minimize administrative requirements placed on the individual
Soldiers while at the mobilization station. All mobilizing units RC SRP data will be
"batch-processed" and then forwarded to the mobilization station.
Within 24 hours of arrival on station the Mobilization stations will load RC units into the
automated logistics systems. The Mobilization Station Director of Logistics will ensure
