So I was wondering if any Marines here have done any of the non-standard Reserve programs like Active Reserve, Active Duty Special Work, Individual Mobilization Augmentees, etc.?
The only reason why I ask is because I am wondering (although I know its highly doubtful) that if my unit isn't deploying if there is a way to volunteer for some time in the sandbox...or if I just have to wait it out and hope my unit would be called up.
I read about these programs in Marine Magazine, but I was just wondering if any Marines have first hand experiences or some better descriptions of the programs.
