Description: The Federal Research Division (FRD)--under an interagency agreement with the Commission on the National Guard and Reserves (CNGR)--conducted research in support of two congressionally mandated reports submitted by CNGR in March 2007 and January 2008. The nine reports prepared by FRD cover a range of topics: budgeting for reserve component equipment; directors of emergency management, homeland security, and military departments in the 50 states and territories; general and flag officer authorizations (numbers and pay grades); military support to civil authorities; the National Guard Bureau; pay, benefits, and allowances for National Guard and reserve active-duty and inactive-duty personnel; reform of the military retirement system; and reorganization and consolidation of the reserve components. The reports analyze federal and state statutes and regulations; military directives; and government studies, particularly those of the Department of Defense and the executive branch.
