Chapter Two

Mobilization of the Forces

More than 143,000 active, National Guard, and Reserve Soldiers are currently deployed
or forward stationed in support of six theater security cooperation plans, seven named
operations and other activities. Across the active component, two corps, 10 divisions and nearly
half of all brigade combat teams are committed or preparing to deploy in support of combatant
command requirements. Similarly, numerous Army National Guard and Army Reserve units are
committed to existing or emerging requirements. Army units are sourcing over half of all
combatant command-validated demand with trained, tailored and culturally attuned forces for
missions across the range of military operations—from projecting power, shaping the security
environment and setting the theater to conducting combined-arms maneuver, wide-area
security, cyber activities and special operations.
