supports all Army Reserve troop units in the continental United States with the exception
of Psychological Operations and Civil Affairs units.&nbsp; The USARC also ensures the
readiness of its forces and prepares the nearly 1,700 units under its command to mobilize
and deploy to a wartime theater of operation.<br>

<p align="left"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">The USARC's command and control
structure is designed to focus on training; readiness; supporting mobilization; and
providing military support to other federal agencies.&nbsp; Eleven <a href="page39.html">Regional
Support Commands (</a>RSCs) located throughout the United States provide resource,
logistics and personnel management services to all Army Reserve units within their
region.&nbsp; Three Regional Support Groups (RSGs) assist the RSCs in providing
administrative, logistics and general support services.&nbsp; A structure of Army Garrison
Units assists the Army by managing Active Component garrisons during mobilization.<br>
<br>
A network of seven institutional training and five exercise divisions allows the USARC to
train new soldiers during mobilization and provide valuable peacetime training for Active
and Reserve soldiers.&nbsp; The USARC also supervises specific troop units such as
military police and signal commands through a system of&nbsp; 25 General Officer Commands,
or &quot;GOCOMs.&quot;&nbsp; <br>

Army Reservists train at <a href="page40.html">installations </a>controlled and managed by
the USARC.&nbsp; Several posts, including Fort McCoy, Wis., Fort Hunter-Liggett, Calif.,
Camp Parks, Calif., and Fort Dix, N.J., will become regional training sites for all three
components of America's Army.&nbsp; These training centers will support field and computer
simulated training.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <br>

USARC identifies, schedules, monitors and resources training for combat support and combat
service support units. <br>
<br>
&nbsp; &nbsp; The USARC manages 500 Army Reserve units which are part of the Army's Force
Support Package (FSP).&nbsp; In case of a mobilization, units in the Army Reserve's FSP
would be activiated immediately to provide combat support and combat service support
capabilities.&nbsp; The Tiered Resourcing Program, implemented and managed by the USARC,
is designed to improve unit readiness and also ensures units in the Army Reserve FSP
receive the highest priority for all resources.<br>
<br>
The USARC also manages the overseas deployment for training (ODT) program, allowing Army
Reserve units to perform mission-related training while providing mission-essential
medical, transportation, maintenance and engineering capabilities to America's Army.<br>
<br>
Through the ODT program, Army Reserve soldiers and units have deployed to Southwest Asia
and Central America to provide support to active army missions in Egypt, Saudi Arabia,
Kuwait, Jordan, Honduras, Guatemala and Haiti.&nbsp; </font><font size="2" face="TimesNewRomanPS"><br>
