Description

James T. Currie & Richard B. Crossland. This illustrated volume tells the story of the nation’s first & oldest federal reserve force, the U.S. Army Reserve (USAR), from its creation in 1908 through its missions to Haiti & Bosnia in 1994 & 1995. Commissions as first lieutenants were initially given to 160 Army contract physicians who became the first members of the federal reserve corps. From that small beginning has grown the modern day USAR of thousands of units & hundreds of thousands of well-trained men & women. This is the standard history of the USAR. It contains information on USAR strength & funding & promises to remain the one comprehensive, indispensable source for anyone seeking to learn about the Army Reserve. B&W photos.
