United States Code (U.S.C.) (commonly 

known as the ‘‘Federal Advisory 

Committee Act’’ or ‘‘FACA’’), title 5, 

U.S.C., section 552b (commonly known 

as the ‘‘Government in the Sunshine 

Act’’), and title 41, Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR), sections 102–3.140 

and 102–3.155. 

Due to circumstances beyond the 

control of the DFO, the RFPB was 

unable to provide public notification 

required by 41 CFR 102–3.150(a) 

concerning its December 4, 2024 

meeting. Accordingly, the Advisory 

Committee Management Officer for the 

DoD, pursuant to 41 CFR 102–3.150(b), 

waives the 15-calendar day notification 

requirement. 

Purpose of the Meeting 

The purpose of the meeting is to 

obtain, review, and evaluate relevant 

information related to strategies, 

policies, and practices designed to 

improve and enhance the capabilities, 

efficiency, and effectiveness of the 

Reserve Component (RC). 

Agenda 

The RFPB will hold a meeting which 

will be closed to the public from 9:45 

a.m. to 12:00 p.m. After opening 

comments by the RFPB’s DFO, Military 

Executive, and Chair, members will 

receive a classified briefing on 

vulnerabilities and future capabilities of 

weapons systems, installations, projects, 

plans, and Reserve Component 

protection missions relating to national 

security. Lieutenant General (Lt. Gen.) 

Dagvin Anderson, U.S. Air Force, the 

Director of Joint Force Development for 

the Joint Staff, will present the classified 

briefing. The closed session will end at 

approximately 12:00 p.m. and RFPB 

members will take a one-hour lunch 

break. The open portion of the meeting 

will commence at approximately 1:00 

p.m. with opening statements by the 

RFPB’s DFO, Military Executive and 

Chair. The trio will be followed with a 

presentation by the Senior Enlisted 

Advisor to the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense for Manpower & Reserve 

Affairs, Sergeant Major (SGM) Stephen 

Minyard, U.S. Army Reserve (USAR). 

SGM Minyard will provide his 

perspective on viable opportunities for 

strengthening commonalities between 

the active and reserve components’ 

enlisted workforce. At approximately 

2:00 p.m., the chiefs of the seven 

Reserve Components, or their respective 

designees, will engage the RFPB 

members in a roundtable discussion. 

Invited Reserve Component chiefs 

include Lieutenant General (LTG) 

Robert Harter, USAR, Chief, Army 

Reserve; Vice Admiral Nancy Lacore, 

U.S. Navy Reserve, Chief, Navy Reserve; 

Lt. Gen. John Healy, U.S. Air Force 

Reserve, Chief, Air Force Reserve; 

Lieutenant General Loni Anderson, U.S. 

Marine Corps Reserve, Commander, 

Marine Corps Forces Reserve; LTG

Guard, Director, Army National Guard; 

Major General Duke Pirak, Air National 

Guard, Director, Air National Guard 

Director (nominee), and; Rear Admiral 

Tiffany Danko, Director Coast Guard 

Reserve. The roundtable discussion will 

focus on the chiefs’ priorities, current 

readiness and mobilization challenges 

and their respective approaches for 

preparing their forces for protracted 

conflict. The roundtable will entail two 

forty-five-minute sessions with one 

fifteen-minute break between each 

session. At the conclusion of the final 

session, at approximately 3:45, the 

RFPB Chair will provide closing 

comments and then adjourn the 

meeting. 

Meeting Accessibility 

In accordance with section 1009(d) of 

the FACA and 41 CFR 102–3.155, the 

DoD has determined that between 9:45 

a.m. to 12:00 p.m. the meeting will be 

closed to the public. Specifically, the 

USD (P&R), in coordination with the 

DoD FACA Attorney, has determined in 

writing that this portion of the meeting 

will be closed to the public because it 

is likely to disclose classified matters 

covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1). Such 

classified material is so intertwined 

with the unclassified material that it 

cannot reasonably be segregated into
