In this revised and expanded second edition, you will find a comprehensive history of the United States Army Reserve, from its birth on April 23, 1908 with limited mission to a force of almost one million men and women serving and their contributions to the national defense structure of our country. There is a great deal of material relating to the US Army Reserve role in Desert Shield and Desert Storm time-frame. Questions about the "Total Force" and how well it worked during the Gulf Conflict as well as the Army Reserve's size and structure are a few of the author's controversial topics covered within this volume.   Select black and white photos interspersed throughout add a visual component to this dense text as well as several appendices to provide additional historical relevance.
