This week the Army, Navy and Marine Corps announced decreases in activated reservists while the Air Force and Coast Guard announced an increase. The net collective result is 235 fewer reservists activated than last week.

At any given time, services may activate some units and individuals while deactivating others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 52,118; Navy Reserve, 4,748; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 9,267; Marine Corps Reserve, 4,754, and the Coast Guard Reserve, 775. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel currently activated to 71,662, including both units and individual augmentees.

Discounts & Benefits A Real Thank You is Coming to the Nursing Community We want the nursing community to know that we see you. You work twelve-hour shifts that often turn into fourteen. You make split-second decisions that save lives. When doctors aren’t available, families look to you for answers. You are the constant presence when people are at their most vulnerable — providing not just medical care, but comfort, advocacy, and hope.

The Dick Van Dyke Show

WeSalute Awards CelebVet: Dick Van Dyke “I'm looking for work if anybody has,” joked the now 100-year-old comedian and entertainer Dick Van Dyke. Best known for his iconic roles in films like Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and the classic television series The Dick Van Dyke Show, the beloved actor has officially joined the centenarian club. Van Dyke celebrated his 100th birthday on December 13, a milestone marked not by a lavish Hollywood gala, but in true Van Dyke fashion: with a low-key day at home watching Jeopardy! reruns with his wife, Arlene Silver.
