I waited a day to post this so that I could celebrate the career of my 2nd term with the Corps along with my own BD.
"The United States Marine Corps Reserve was established when Congress passed the Naval Appropriations Act of 29 August 1916 and is responsible for providing trained units and qualified individuals to be mobilized for active duty in time of war, national emergency or contingency operations. Marine forces Reserve also provides personnel and operational tempo relief for active component forces in peacetime."
Happy Birthday Reserve Marines!
"Operational tempo relief" means pretty that Congress cut the Military budget/levels too thin, and the jobs can't get done with the current active duty. 3 of the 4 reasons I was pulled into Active duty while I was a Reservist.
