National Guard (in Federal Status) and Reserve Mobilized As of March 22, 2006 This week, the Army, Air Force and Marine Corps announced a decrease in the number of reservists on active duty in support of the partial mobilization, while the Navy and Coast Guard numbers remained the same as the previous week. The net collective result is 4,725 fewer reservists mobilized than last week.

At any given time, services may mobilize some units and individuals while demobilizing others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. Total number currently on active duty in support of the partial mobilization for the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 93,085; Navy Reserve, 5,426; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 7,483; Marine Corps Reserve, 6,862; and the Coast Guard Reserve, 407. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel, who have been mobilized, to 113,263, including both units and individual augmentees.
