Governors Wind Up Guard Reserve Plan Draws Congress Fire
Congress opens fire on the Army plan to break up eight battle-starred National Guard and Reserve divisions while governors from 21 states prepare objections. Rep. Hall warns of a major congressional battle as the Army seeks eight flexible brigades and shifted missions. The eight historic divisions would retain only headquarters, with training and support duties reassigned. A six-division priority guard force would back up 16 regular Army divisions, kept at 75 to 80 percent strength. The readied reorganizations aim to create a trim, ready force for emergencies.
