Summary:

Many active and reserve personnel were unable to deploy for Operations Desert Shield and Storm, but a lack of data makes it impossible to gauge accurately the total number. The causes of nondeployability ranged from incomplete training to varying medical conditions or personal problems. Although the Pentagon claims that nondeployables were not a serious problem because the services were able to call up other personnel, available data do suggest that the number of nondeployables was sizable. The data also indicate that nondeployability problems were aggravated by systemic weaknesses in the peacetime screening of active and reserve personnel and inadequate reporting of nondeployables as part of normal readiness reporting. Steps must be taken to minimize future recurrences, particularly when there will be few active and reserve forces from which to tailor and substitute personnel to meet force requirements.
