This week the Army, Navy and Marine Corps announced decreases in activated reservists while the Air Force and Coast Guard announced an increase. The net collective result is 235 fewer reservists activated than last week.

At any given time, services may activate some units and individuals while deactivating others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 52,118; Navy Reserve, 4,748; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 9,267; Marine Corps Reserve, 4,754, and the Coast Guard Reserve, 775. This brings the total National Guard and Reserve personnel currently activated to 71,662, including both units and individual augmentees.
