    FOREWARD Your Air Force Reserve is a combat- ready force, composed of more than 70,000 proud reservists, stationed locally throughout the United States, serving globally for every Combatant Command around the world. We provide our Nation with operational capability, strategic depth and surge capacity whenever America needs us. We are an integrated Total Force partner in every Air Force core mission: Air and Space Superiority, Global Strike, Rapid Global Mobility, Intelligence, Surveillance, James F. Jackson, and Reconnaissance, and Command Lt Gen, USAF and Control. In an increasingly limited fiscal environment, reservists remain efficient and cost-effective solutions to our nation’s challenges. The majority of our Citizen Airmen serve part time, making us a highly efficient force, averaging about a third of the cost of active duty Airmen. Perhaps our greatest strength is we retain ‘Airmen for life,’ preserving the considerable investments and expertise of our Airmen beyond their Cameron B. Kirksey, active duty service. In times of crisis, we Command CMSgt can call upon our strategic depth of an additional 785,000 Airmen from the Individual Ready Reserve, Standby Reserve, Retired Reserve and Retired Active Duty. To meet future challenges, the Air Force Reserve works as a member of the “Total Force”, alongside active duty and Air National Guardsmen. This strong, three-component team is ready for combat or humanitarian relief operations worldwide. Since 2012, the Air Force Reserve can also be mobilized to respond to domestic requirements here at home. 01 Dual-use capabilities such as airlift, aeromedical evacuation and personnel recovery are equally valuable, both in-theater and for homeland support.
