U.S. Department of Defense

The Army National Guard, Army Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, Air Force Reserve, and the Coast Guard Reserve announced a decrease in activated National Guard members and reservists this week, while the Navy Reserve and the Air National Guard announced an increase of activated National Guard members and reservists. The net collective result is a decrease of 485 activated National Guard members and reservists in comparison to 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 21,294; Navy Reserve, 3,292; Marine Corps Reserve, 1,088; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 6,749; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 295. This brings the total National Guard and reserve personnel who have been activated to 32,718, including both units and individual augmentees.
