... and there was I thinking that only TAV-landers get called up for
reserve duty.

| U.S. reserves are only called up in emergencies like Desert Shield.
Fortunately Jeremy wasn't sent to Saudi Arabia -- I imagine it's no fun
being a chaplain in SA. Come to think of it, Washington may be more
dangerous than Saudi Arabia this week.

I expect they're called up more often than that, else how would
they stay in training?
I know somebody (well actually it's a FOAF, but I believe the story is
true) who lives in Israel, but was still in the American reserves. He
got a callup shortly after the war started, and even had to pay his own
way back to the U.S. in order to be shipped all the way back over here
to Saudi Arabia. Of course, I guess he could have ignored the callup but
that would have caused all kinds of complications if he ever wanted to
go visit the States. Uncle Sam has a long arm.
