Army and Air Force plan indefinite reserve commissions
The Army and Air Force plan to offer indefinite reserve commissions to reserve officers under the Armed Forces Reserve Act. Those who decline would be released at the end of their current five year term. Navy and Marine Corps reserves already operate under a similar system. An Army spokesman notes major gains include no commission renewal and reduced costs, with reservists treated like regular officers and no five year probationary review. President Truman may extend commissions beyond five years by executive order to avoid mass retirements.
