Top 10 to-knows for AGR changes

The Chief of Air Force Reserve has approved changes to the Active Guard Reserve (AGR) program that is anticipated to be implemented in September. Over the next three fiscal years, the AGR program will grow from 20 percent of Reserve full-time support to 26 percent. The Human Capital Management Leadership Team (HCMLT) spent nine months reviewing laws, policies and processes to support growth, parity and longevity of other full-time forces. The team included a working group of 30 Reserve Command members across multiple communities to review all AGR policies and processes, and make recommendations. Until the new policy is published, there are 10 things airmen should know or can expect with the new program. (Source: Active Reserve Personnel Center 04/10/19)
