Army Chief Agrees!
"To be sure, our Army is being stretched to meet the demands of the current conflict.... Our Reserve Components are performing an operational role for which they were neither originally designed nor resourced." Army Chief of Staff General George W. Casey Jr. - Jan 2008.
"The mindset has changed. We are warrior-citizens, with emphasis on warrior."
Chief, Army Reserve, and USARC Commander, Lt. General Jack Stultz - April 2008.
