Ok, I gotta go back a lotta years to remember this, I got out of the army in '85 did my reserves, and finished the IRR about 8 mos before the first gulf war, I extended while in the active reserves and the only reason I could think why I would have done that was sheer stupidity, but if memory serves I remember something saying that if it was needed the army could call you back for life if there was need.

But Bush isn't going to call for a draft? Noticed how he did this AFTER the election. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't try to call up my grandfather who served in WWII and has been dead for 10 years.Comment

IRR has been around for decades and has been used more in the past than it is now.
Not to mention it's all in the contract you signed. My son actually read his contract and asked his recruiter about this

There is not any need at all for a draft at this point in time. Congress controls the force end level for the military. They can raise the force end level at any point they choose to. By raising the force end levels the size of the miltary will significantly increase via the all volunteer program. In other words...at this point in time potential enlistees are being turned away and/or being put on the Delayed Entry Program. Congress will refrain from raising the force end levels for as long as possible because of the additional budgetary expense. The only way a draft would ever be reinstituted is if there is a major conflict...and at this point that does not appear to be on the horizon.Originally posted by GatorB

All current military personell are aware that they have an eight year obligation. They also know that their enlistments can be extended, and their retirements delayed at the descretion of the military. This is SOP and has been at least since the end of the 2nd World War.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

"This is not the first time the Army has used the IRR to fill its manpower needs. During the Gulf War, more than 20,000 IRR Soldiers were mobilized and deployed. Since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the Army has called up more than 2,500 IRR Soldiers -- the majority through IRR volunteers, though some have been involuntary call-ups."
So, 10 times as many were called up during the Gulf war.Last edited by Peaches; 11-07-2004, 10:36 AM.Comment

Plus I was in the Navy so I wouldn't have died anyway.
I served from 1990 to 1998, yes I did my max 8 yr contract. One year later I get a call from a army recruiter asking if i like to reenlist? Told him, already did my 8 yrs, plus I can't rejoin the same branch (Army) once discharged. He informs me...Oh we call you up to 3 years from the date of discharge to reelist with the same branch of service.
Don't get me wrong I was proud to serve my country, however I won't while Bushwack in office.

Exactly!Originally posted by theking
Unless there has been a change (I don't think there has been) when you enlist in the military...be it a two-three-four-or six year enlistement...you then have committed yourself to an eight year obligation. If for example you originally enlisted for two years and did not re-enlist you still would have a six year obligation in the Ready Reserve and could be called back to service anytime within that six year period. If you enlisted for six years (which is the max for a single enlistement or re-enlistment) and did not re-enlist...you then would have a two year obligation in the Ready Reserve...and could be called back to service within that two year period.
In this guys situation...it is just a SNAFU...I suspect.
Again, right!Originally posted by Alex From San Diego
That isn't even close to a backdoor draft. To many people don't listen or read their contracts when VOLUNTEERING for the military.
"All Soldiers have a statutory eight-year military service obligation (MSO), which is established at the time of entry into military service (Active or Reserve). Traditional enlistment terms are three, four, five and six years. Terms of service for active duty are from 2-6 years."
It has nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats.

Well it has been a while, but as I recall, in order to get your honorable discharge in the USAR, you have to resign your commission as part of the separation process. I made it to O-3.
If your resignation does not get processed and accepted, they could get you. After you have your honorable discharge however, I have NEVER heard of anyone recalled, Officers included.
Why does it seem that all the GFY experts
on this topic have never spent a day in the US military????

I spent 12 years in the military (my career was ended in the 1st Gulf War) and was an E-7 Non Commissioned Officer not a Commissioned Officer...thus your knowledge about the recalling of Officers should be more extensive than mine. It has been my understanding that Officers who do not resign their Commission (it has been my understanding that it is optional after fulling ones military obligation to retain or resign their Commissions) are subject to recall until age 62. I knew a Major in the 1st Gulf War that was recalled after retirement (though I do not think that it was a forced recall but instead he was requested to return to active duty). I also knew retired E-Ratings that were recalled after retirement during the 1st Gulf War...but once again it was not a forced recall.Originally posted by ronbotx

As far as E-Ratings being recalled after receiving an Honorable Discharge...there have been recalls (from time to time) of those that have not fulfilled their eight year obligation. An E-Rating receives an Honorable Discharge upon separation from active duty...and upon each re-enlistment. I have several Honorable Discharges. Another example...my brother served three years active duty with the Army and was given an Honorable Discharge then enlisted in the Marines and received an Honorable Discharge from the Corp when he re-enlisted in the Marines...and ultimately recieved a General Discharge under honorable conditions for a medical problem...when he could not fulfill his second enlistment in the Corp.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!
