Active Duty & Army Reserve

If you choose to serve on Active Duty, you’ll serve full time throughout your length of service. Serving in the Army Reserve allows you to commit to your country while you continue your civilian career and serve when your real-world experience is needed. Both options have unique advantages. Any Soldier, Active or Reserve, may deploy during their career, based on the needs of the Army and each unit’s deployment schedule.
