4. Non-AvailablesRemaining Category breakout While the B1 and B2 numbers are very high, these Soldiers would either be counted here or in the ‘Untrained’ category. Either way, they would be considered Non Available. Some of these codes (highlighted in yellow) represent database coding errors. For example, Soldiers coded as B1 are also coded as being skill level 1O. One of these values is wrong but determining which one is wrong is difficult. However, they are not being double counted in other numbers on the previous slide.

6. Mobilization Load vs What’s Left Completely dependant on ‘volunteerism’ to support FY06 leadership requirements This chart shows the number of TPU mobilizations during FY05 by grade (FY05 Mob Starts). Just simply matching mobilization requirements to What’s Left by grade, there are critical shortfalls in leadership grades. This assumes these grades of Soldiers will all be re-trained to match the mobilization skill requirements and that FY06 mobilization requirements will mirror FY05. Historical data indicates that the total number of required mobilization starts has remained fairly constant for the past 2 FYs. If we are unable to re-train E7-E9 and O4-O6 then the shortages increase greatly. As long as USAREC can continue to meet the majority of their mission, the AR will be able to sustain E1-E4 mobilization requirements indefinitely provided enough of the correct MOS producing school seats are available to support those mobilization requirements. If there are not enough of the correct school seats, then there could be shortages within the E1-E4 strata in specific skills.

9. COTTAD • Category 1: Soldiers preparing for mobilization who do not have sufficient Partial Mobilization authority remaining to complete required boots on ground (BOG) period with their unit, and voluntarily request a COTTAD in order to complete 12 months BOG with their unit (OCONUS). This category also applies to RC Soldiers who volunteer to serve as a replacement in units that have already deployed. • Category 2: Soldiers mobilized up Title 10 USC 12302, Partial Mobilization, who are already deployed and request a COTTAD to complete 12 months BOG with their deployed unit. • Category 3: Soldiers currently mobilized up Title 10 USC 12302, Partial Mobilization, executing a CONUS-based mission who want to transition to COTTAD orders to fill a valid requirement.

10. COTTAD • Category 4: Soldiers mobilized up Title 10 USC 12302, Partial Mobilization, who are deployed OCONUS and who request a COTTAD in order to remain in theater in support of other requirements after their unit redeploys. • Category 5: Soldiers currently on active duty via COTTAD orders and requesting an extension of their current COTTAD orders or requesting new COTTAD to fill a valid requirement. • Category 6: Soldiers who are not on any type of active duty orders and volunteer for a COTTAD to fill a valid requirement

11. COTTAD Reminders: • Soldiers supporting HQDA, G-3 validated GWOT requirements (CONUS and OCONUS) may request COTTAD orders totaling up to 1095 days. Requests beyond 365 days require DCS G-1 approval prior to HRC-A publishing orders. • Maximize use of the 24 months of Partial Mobilization Authority under Title 10 USC 12302 prior to requesting a COTTAD. • Packets should be submitted 120 days out to ensure HQDA 60 days out guidance is met • COTTAD requests will not exceed 365 days for Soldiers serving in CONUS locations or 545 days for OCONUS. • 730 days of Involuntary Mobilization must be exhausted before a Soldier is placed on COTTAD Orders to meet requirements for AIP.

12. COTTAD Changes ALARACT Message 061540Z OCT 06, DAPE-PR • Category 1 COTTAD: • HRC-A will no longer process Category 1 COTTAD requests. • Commands will submit such requests to First United States Army. • Commands will submit 10 or less Category 1 COTTAD requests with supporting documents via e-mail to First Army at COTTAD@first.army.mil • 11 or more should be mailed to First United States Army, ATTN: G-5 Mobilization, 4705 North Wheeler Drive, Forest Park, GA 30297-5000

13. Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS) • “Active Duty for Operational Support” (ADOS) is active duty (other than Active Guard Reserve (AGR) duty) under 10 U.S.C. § 12301(d); and active duty for training performed at the request of an organizational or operational commander, or as a result of reimbursable funding. • Includes voluntary active duty formerly known as Extended Active Duty (EAD) and Temporary Tours of Active Duty (TTADs). • ADOS orders will not exceed three years, and RC Soldiers shall not perform ADOS for more than three cumulative years within any four-year period (1,095 cumulative days within a 1,460 day period ).

14. Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS) • HRC-A is the orders issuing authority for all types of ADOS orders and DCS, G-3 continues to validate contingency ADOS requirements and approves extensions of current contingency ADOS requirements in support of contingency operation. • Soldiers must be assigned to the Selected Reserve (SELRES) of the Army Reserve while serving on any type of ADOS orders (If entering ADOS from the SELRES, RC Soldiers will remain assigned to their current unit). • Soldiers assigned to the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) must first volunteer to join the SELRES before accepting ADOS orders. • IRR Soldiers currently serving on ADOS, requesting extension on ADOS, or requesting ADOS, are exempt from the SELRES requirement until publication of applicable guidance.
