What does "Guard 4.0" actually entail?

2019-01-19T21:34:16-05:00

I've seen "Guard 4.0" referenced everywhere from the Army Times to my own state's OPORDs, but I haven't been able to find any documents discussing what it actually entails. I've already approached my higher HQ and they're not really sure either. What I have found are bits and pieces of information in different articles and websites. As a member of the AGR force this new initiative will likely have a significant impact on my duties and responsibilities. I'm admittedly curious as well. Is there an unclassified brief or document out there with more specifics?

Interesting summary article, but nothing official

More MUTAs per year and increased training center rotations for some units to ensure that they can augment the active force on a decreased timeline.
