Not All Reservists Going Willingly To Iraq, Afghanistan

POSTED: 6:58 am EDT August 13, 2004

WASHINGTON -- At the end of the month, the first members of the Army's Individual Ready Reserve to be called up involuntarily since the Gulf War report for duty.


Here is what the IRR is:

The Individual Ready Reserve category is distinct from regular Army Reserve because the troops do not perform any military service during the year yet are still eligible to be called to active duty.

I think the guys in this category are aware that they are in this category. They know this because they got into the Military, not by accident, but because they VOLUNTEERED. Facts are troublesome things.
