	United States Army - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Army of the United States was re-established for the Korean War and Vietnam War and was demobilized upon the suspension of the draft.
		Although the present-day Army exists as an all volunteer force, augmented by Reserve and National Guard forces, measures exist for emergency expansion in the event of a catastrophic occurrence, such as a large scale attack against the US or the outbreak of a major global war.
		The civilian executive is the Secretary of the Army who heads the United States Department of the Army, formerly called the Secretary of War who headed the United States Department of War or the War Office for short, at the founding of the Republic.

	The Army Reserve in the Korean War
		The Army Reserve's role in the Korean War can be boiled down to the title of an Army song and a line from it: "When We Were Needed, We Were There" and "It wasn't always easy, it wasn't always fair." All of the U.S. Army, both active and reserve, was unprepared for war in 1950.
		The call was answered, no matter the difficulties for the Army Reserve as a whole or for the thousands of individuals who had served their country honorably and well in a world war only half a decade earlier.
		The Republic of Korea Army was unprepared for the assault.

	Army Reserve Chief Criticizes Policies
		WASHINGTON - The Army Reserve, whose part time soldiers serve in combat and support roles in Iraq and Afghanistan, is so hampered by misguided Army policies and practices that it is "rapidly degenerating into a 'broken' force," the Reserve's most senior general says.
		James R. Helmly, chief of the Army Reserve, wrote in an internal memorandum to the Army's top uniformed officer that the Reserve has reached the point of being unable to fulfill its missions in Iraq and Afghanistan and to regenerate its forces for future missions.
		The Army Reserve's ability to regenerate its recently deployed forces is "eroding daily," he added, in part because Reserve troops who finish tours in Iraq and Afghanistan are required to leave substantial amounts of their equipment for other forces and for contractors.

	CNN.com - Army Reserve chief raises concern about 'broken force' - Jan 6, 2005
		WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Pentagon's reliance on volunteers from the Army Reserve for duty in Iraq and Afghanistan risks creating a "broken force," the reserve force's commander warned his superiors in a December memo, and he urged a wider call-up of reservists to active duty.
		James Helmly stated that the Army Reserve is no longer able to meet its commitments in Iraq and Afghanistan, nor can it "reset and regenerate" units for future missions.
		Reserve commanders spend too much time trying to accommodate troops who don't want to serve, leaving the force unable to meet its mission requirements, Helmly concluded -- the result of policies that were designed for peacetime, "as opposed to a mobilized force in wartime."
