I guess the question I have, is this order simply the response for what we used to call request for forces and authorities to bolster troops by more traditional means? From an outside perspective this sounds like call up people no longer on active duty. From a former inside perspective it also could mean that this allows for a MOB order of current reserve units to augment these forces. My guess is that a MOB order of Army reserve and National Guard will be mobilized at first. Any determined plus up would probably result in an IRR call up, but I would see this as unlikely, except maybe a few people in some key specialties needed. If that were to happen they would most likely pull from the most recent separated. After a while I would have to figure many people would be no longer proficient in their previous military job and would require going back to some formal training. I am simply guessing, so I suppose we will have to see what this entails. If I had to guess they move forward current active troops while the call ups will be in training status.
