In the continuing effort to maintain a ready force and honor the United States commitments throughout the world, in 1993 the Chief of Staff of the Army directed a test of the use of Reserve Component forces for the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) peacekeeping mission in the Sinai. A battalion composed of 80% RC individual volunteers and 20% Active Component soldiers was activated, trained and deployed as the 28th MFO rotation to the Sinai (Jan-Jul 95). ARI conducted an assessment of personnel and training issues using performance, interview and survey data. The four research questions and their findings are as follows. (1) Personnel: Who volunteered and why? What, if any, changes should be made to the volunteer screening process? (2) Family Support: How well did the family support system work? What was the impact of Sinai service on the family and civilian lives of volunteers? (3) Training/Performance: What are the unique and minimal training requirements? Did the training process produce a cohesive unit that could perform the mission? (4) Impact on the 29th ID(L): What is the impact on the ARYG units that sent volunteers, both during the deployment and post-deployment? Recommendations for future deployments are discussed in the text. ARI will continue to assess the impact of the deployment and post-redeployment re-entry on National Guard soldier commitment/retention, marital stability and financial well-being through October 1997. Cost analyses are not included in the ARI portion of the MFO assessment.

In this thesis I examine the role of the National Guard in supporting current National Security and National Military Strategy. I argue that the global security environment has changed drastically since the end of the Cold War making "Homeland Security" a primary mission for the military, specifically the National Guard. Concurrently, the unprecedented number of overseas deployments to perform peacekeeping missions has severely affected the active Army's combat capability. I argue that the US Army has not embraced the requirements for "Homeland Security," focusing instead on maintaining its 10 active division force structure. To meet the needs of National Military Strategy, the active Army has instead relied on the reserve components to perform overseas peacekeeping missions. I argue that the National Guard has also looked to performing these missions as a method of institutional survival. Together, both components have undermined the Constitutional underpinnings of the Reserve Component as a strategic reserve, to be mobilized in cases of "war or national emergency." I argue that making "Homeland Security" a primary federal mission of the National Guard, along with restructuring current combat, combat support, and combat service support ratios will allow the National Guard to support National Military Strategy and "Homeland Security."

As the twenty-first century approaches, the number of full-time, active duty personnel in the U.S. military (excluding the Reserves and National Guard) is about 1.4 million, the lowest level since before World War II. Nevertheless, the U.S. military is supposed to be prepared to fight two major-theater wars almost simultaneously while conducting peacekeeping operations and other assignments around the globe. To fulfill this wide range of missions, the U.S. military must continue to rely on the Reserves and National Guard, which are known collectively as the reserve components. The current number of reserve components is almost equal to the number of active duty personnel. In the case of the U.S. Army, the number of reserves is double the number of active personnel. This study addresses how technology can be used to improve the readiness and effectiveness of the reserve components and their integration with the active components. Many technologies are expected to enhance the capabilities of the U.S. military in the twenty-first century, including precision weapons, high-fidelity sensors, long-range surveillance, enhanced stealth characteristics, and advanced communications and information systems. This study reaffirms the importance of improved communication and information systems, for improving comprehensive training and accelerating the mobilization of reserve components for military missions in the coming decade. Although programs using these technologies are already under way in both the reserve and active components of the military, this study focuses on the effectiveness of reserve components and active-reserve integration.

"This report has two objectives. The first objective is to estimate the extent of financial gains or losses of Active Component (AC) and Reserve Component (RC) soldiers for the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) peacekeeping mission in the Sinai. The second objective is to estimate the effect of these gains/losses on soldiers' intentions to remain in their respective component until retirement. Data for a population of approximately 500 soldiers were collected during their predeployment training at Fort Bragg, NC and during deployment at the South Camp in the Sinai. Results of these analyses revealed that AC soldiers perceived a small financial loss ($102 per month) and RC soldiers perceived considerable financial gain ($335 per month). Therefore, soldiers experienced net average financial gains ($233 per month). Regression results for change in financial status revealed that civilian earnings were negatively related to financial gains of the RC. Regression results for career commitment revealed that the soldiers' likelihood of staying in their respective component until retirement increased with financial gains, while statistically controlling for satisfaction with Army life and demographic variables."--DTIC.

The United Nations' 50th anniversary in 1995 prompted the world to reflect on how peacekeeping has changed over the decades. Soldiers for Peace, an anthology of thirteen essays by journalists, peacekeepers, and military historians - often in provocative disagreement with one another - provides a substantive, objective overview for buffs, students, and general readers - anyone who wants to get smart fast about this vital subject. Essays include a history of peacekeeping and its antecedents; a concise analysis of operations since 1948; an interview with Sir Brian Urquhart, the man most involved with the development of the peacekeeping concept; eyewitness accounts of missions in Cyprus, the Congo, the Middle East, Cambodia, Haiti, Somalia, and the former Yugoslavia; the special training of peacekeeping soldiers, who must face a range of potentially explosive situations; lessons on tactics and the divisive issue of command and control; consideration of public attitude and the American soldier; and the special frustrations of humanitarian-relief operations. Complementing each essay are evocative black-and-white photographs from United Nations archives and various news sources, and specially drawn maps that allow readers to locate various peacekeeping operations discussed in the text. A guide to U.N. acronyms and a gazetteer of operations provide quick reference to all peacekeeping missions since 1948. With a preface by United Nations Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, Soldiers for Peace is a revealing examination of all aspects of peacekeeping, its successes and failures past and present, and its prospects for the future. This engrossing chronicle is written from an historical perspective that sheds light on the ever-evolving goals of the U.N. as it struggles for balance in peacemaking, peacekeeping, peace-enforcement, and peace-building throughout the world today. Soldiers for Peace is a must-read for all.
