various systems used to measure the readiness of reserve units of

the Armed Forces and shall implement a measurement system for the

active and reserve components of the Armed Forces to provide an

objective and uniform evaluation of the readiness of all units of

the Armed Forces. The measurement system should be designed to

produce information adequate to provide comparisons concerning the

readiness of all units. The system for evaluation of the readiness

of a unit of an active component should incorporate the performance

of any unit of a reserve component affiliated with the active

component unit, including the effect of the reserve component unit

on the mobilization capability of the active component unit.

''(2) Not later than March 31, 1985, the Secretary shall submit a

report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House

of Representatives describing the results of the review under

''(b)(1) The Secretary of Defense, acting through the Assistant

Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs, shall conduct a study to

evaluate the feasibility of allocating equipment to units of

reserve components based on a measure of effectiveness of such

units. The study should consider the effects of allocating

equipment by comparing units with similar deployment times and

similar capabilities in terms of training and equipment rather than

by comparing all reserve component units with each other. The

study should be integrated with an evaluation of the system for

measuring unit effectiveness to be implemented in accordance with

subsection (a).

''(2) As part of the report under subsection (a)(2), the

Secretary of Defense shall submit to the Committees on Armed

Services of the Senate and House of Representatives a report on the

total membership of the Army Reserve and of the Army National

Guard, respectively, by fiscal year 1989.

''(d)(1)(A) The Secretary of Defense, acting through the

Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs, shall conduct a

study of the benefits of a longer training program for certain

units of the reserve components and shall conduct a test of such a

program. The test program should begin at the earliest realistic

date.

''(B) In developing training programs for the reserve components,

the Secretary shall give increased attention to innovative training

technologies, techniques, and schedules that recognize the

limitations on time and the geographic dispersion of the reserve

components.

''(2) Not later than March 31, 1985, the Secretary shall submit a

report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House

of Representatives describing the study under paragraph (1).

(b) Determinations by Interpolation. - If the total number of

members of a reserve component serving on full-time reserve

component duty is between any two consecutive numbers in the first

column of the appropriate table in paragraph (1) or (2) of

subsection (a), the corresponding authorized strengths for each of

the grades shown in that table for that component are determined by

mathematical interpolation between the respective numbers of the

two strengths. If the total number of members of a reserve

component serving on full-time reserve component duty is more or

less than the highest or lowest number, respectively, set forth in

the first column of the appropriate table in paragraph (1) or (2)

of subsection (a), the Secretary concerned shall fix the

corresponding strengths for the grades shown in that table at the

same proportion as is reflected in the nearest limit shown in the

table.

(c) Reallocations to Lower Grades. - Whenever the number of

officers serving in any grade for duty described in subsection (a)

is less than the number authorized for that grade under this

section, the difference between the two numbers may be applied to

increase the number authorized under this section for any lower

grade.

(d) Secretarial Waiver. - (1) Upon determining that it is in the

national interest to do so, the Secretary of Defense may increase

for a particular fiscal year the number of reserve officers that

may be on full-time reserve component duty for a reserve component

in a grade referred to in a table in subsection (a) by a number

that does not exceed the number equal to 5 percent of the maximum

number specified for the grade in that table.

(2) Whenever the Secretary exercises the authority provided in

paragraph (1), the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Armed

Services of the Senate and the Committee on Armed Services of the

House of Representatives notice in writing of the adjustment made.

(e) Full-Time Reserve Component Duty Defined. - In this section,

the term ''full-time reserve component duty'' means the following

duty:

(1) Active duty described in sections 10211, 10302, 10303,

10304, 10305, 12310, or 12402 of this title.

(2) Full-time National Guard duty (other than for training)

under section 502(f) of title 32.

(3) Active duty described in section 708 of title 32.

(b) Determinations by Interpolation. - If the total number of

members of a reserve component serving on full-time reserve

component duty is between any two consecutive numbers in the first

column of the table in subsection (a), the corresponding authorized

strengths for each of the grades shown in that table for that

component are determined by mathematical interpolation between the

respective numbers of the two strengths. If the total number of

members of a reserve component serving on full-time reserve

component duty is more or less than the highest or lowest number,

respectively, set forth in the first column of the table in

subsection (a), the Secretary concerned shall fix the corresponding

strengths for the grades shown in the table at the same proportion

as is reflected in the nearest limit shown in the table.

(c) Reallocations to Lower Grade. - Whenever the number of

members serving in pay grade E-9 for duty described in subsection

(a) is less than the number authorized for that grade under this

section, the difference between the two numbers may be applied to

increase the number authorized under this section for pay grade

E-8.

(d) Secretarial Waiver. - (1) Upon determining that it is in the

national interest to do so, the Secretary of Defense may increase

for a particular fiscal year the number of reserve enlisted members

that may be on active duty or full-time National Guard duty as

described in subsection (a) for a reserve component in a pay grade

referred to in a table in subsection (a) by a number that does not

exceed the number equal to 5 percent of the maximum number

specified for that grade and reserve component in the table.

(2) Whenever the Secretary exercises the authority provided in

paragraph (1), the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Armed

Services of the Senate and the Committee on Armed Services of the

House of Representatives notice in writing of the adjustment made.

(e) Full-Time Reserve Component Duty Defined. - In this section,

the term ''full-time reserve component duty'' has the meaning given

the term in section 12011(e) of this title.
