The Army actually sent me "muster" orders last month. What is a muster besides a really stupid word that loses all meaning after you say it like 3 times? Besides this outdated article (the only one I could find - surprise!), it's the Army's way of physically accounting for me. So . . . I guess 18 months of being on their active books while in Iraq wasn't enough to physically account for me?? HRC, I laugh at your muster orders. Laughing while I tear them up. I have 20 days until my MSO (Military Service Obligation, which I know you have no idea about since your record keeping is awful), so good luck getting me back in. But hey, thanks, once again, for reminding me why I got out - twice! For the rest of you who got IRR muster orders and have served your time - fight the power. If they cant keep track of us with all the non-deployable HRC people they got, that's their problem.

Ha I had to muster in July 2007. Like Shea said, watch a video, update your address, and then they pester you about joining a unit. I actually wanted to join a unit at the time, so it worked out great for me. But if you're not into that, then it's a total waste of time. I think I got paid something like $150 for it.
How much longer do you have on your initial 8-year commitment? If you're done, and want to be done, resign. They'll call you to try to keep you in, but don't let them if you don't want to. Good luck!
Goodluck to you!
that's a problem. Way to make you feel significant huh? I like your blog. :)
I have no idea what you talking about! Its so great! I'll just sit here and type "yes" to agree with every word! =D
my brother got his Muster Orders and has to go in today and deal with these people (they called him yesterday and said he has to go). Any advice? I've already sent an email out to a friend of mine who is former JAG to see if he should have a lawyer with him. I know I sound a bit hysteric, but the kid did 2 tours in Iraq (combat included) and now has PTSD (has been to VA and been put in treatment, had incidents in country that we're not documented as such because they didn't want to loose him, etc.) He says he "isn't stupid" and is not going to let them get to him, but still I worry. They are so very sneaky
