§ 102.6 Basic requirements and policy.

(a) In order to insure that trained units and qualified individuals are available for active duty in time of war or national emergency, as set forth in sections 262 and 263 of title 10, United States Code, and that funds appropriated annually for reserve training are adequate to meet mobilization requirements but not excessive to such need, the Secretaries of the Military Departments shall take the following actions in accordance with the principles indicated, dependent on the particular needs of the Military Department concerned:

(1) Establish criteria by which individuals subject to the mandatory participation requirement will be placed in an appropriate training category. Such criteria shall include consideration of the individual's civilian employment and the proximity of established reserve drilling units to his place of residence or employment. No individual shall be involuntarily placed in Training Categories A, B, C, or E unless there is a vacancy in an established training unit within reasonable commuting distance, as determined

by the Secretary of the Military Department concerned.

(2) Establish criteria for identifying all organized training units with a training category. Such criteria shall include, but not necessarily be limited to, the specialized nature of the training required and the availability to the unit of proper training aids and equipment necessary to perform the assigned training mission.

(b) In establishing the criteria called for in paragraph (a) of this section, the following considerations shall govern:

(1) Training prescribed should be the minimum number of inactive duty training periods and minimum periods of annual training required to maintain the proficiency of the unit or individual.

(2) Wherever practicable, multiple inactive duty training periods will be used as substitutes for weekly paid training periods.

(c) Those members of the Ready Reserve who are not subject to mandatory training participation requirements shall be encouraged to participate to the extent necessary to maintain their mobilization potential.

(d) Individual reservists who are qualified for retirement under the provisions of sections 1331 and 1332, title 10, United States Code, except for having reached 60 years of age, are required to attain 50 points annually to be retained in the Ready Reserve. Waiver of this requirement on a one-time basis may be made under exceptional circumstances by the Secretary concerned. This policy is effective with the anniversary date of each reservist's current training year (retirement year) beginning on or after July 1, 1967.

§ 103.2 Policy.

(a) Effective as of May 1, 1967, the enlistment of individuals under the provisions of Title 10, U.S. Code, section 511(d), and the assignment of applicants, to vacancies in units of the Ready Reserve shall be made in the following priority:

(d) Individual applicants for assignment or enlistment in the Reserve Components shall not be accepted unless there is reasonable assurance that they will be available and able to participate satisfactorily in the unit concerned. In this respect careful consideration shall be given to the geographical location, future plans, and possible conflicts with the civilian occupation of the individual applicant.

(3) Class MJC. Units established at essentially military schools which provide high school and junior college instruction but do not confer baccalaureate degrees. These units meet all other requirements of Class MC and accept and maintain the specially designated program of instruction prescribed by the appropriate Secretary for this class of institution.
