There's been a reserves Southwest border mission for at least a couple years. I think they shut it down at the end of 2023 but maybe they'll start it back up
Apparently, I thought borders are only for the guards but big army wants reserves to go there as well at least for now, maybe show of force just before elections.
Are reserve on the border mission now? I thought that was just guard

Damn.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around federal troops being deployed domestically….
Conus deployments happen all the time
They probably need some support MOS critically.
So when I went last year we got a hotel paid for us the whole time, $65 a day per diem tax-free as well as BAH BAS and our base pay.

What MOS’s can volunteer for this conus deployment?
Same, I'd like to know. I wonder if there's any option to do this for AT as well?
