ITEM NO. 1 PUSH - PULL, PERSONNEL TRACKING

(SGHR ITEMS NO. 5, 27, 28, 115, 116, 158, 159, 161, 162, 163)

BACKGROUND: A number of problems were encountered with the PUSH-PULL
mobilization process.

DISCUSSION: Bases were rarely notified of the names of assigned Individuals
prior to their arrival. Due to Inadequate pre-screening by ARPC, a number of
PIM reported for duty unqualified In their primary AFSC. Some PIM had
upgraded their skills subsequent to leaving active duty and were disgruntled
to return to earlier AFSC when recalled. Difficulty was experienced In
projecting and tracing IMAs as well.

RECOMMENDATIONS: AF AFMPC should provide MAJCOMs with names of personnel so
that gaining bases could be notified. projected IMA assignments and changes
should be reported to the requester. Ensure more thorough screening of the
Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) and Incorporate flexible reclassifications or
commissioning. The whole Issue of how IRR should be mobilized needs to be
reviewed.
    
ACTIONS REQUIRED: AFMPC has acknowledged that the system for notification of
gaining units must be closely monitored. Message traffic will provide updates
until system can be brought up to date. ARPC is developing procedures to
periodically get updates on PIM qualifications. Concerning commissioning of
PIM personnel, no action Is required.- Enlisted PIM members mobilized have the
same opportunity to apply for a commission after recall as any other enlisted
personnel meeting commissioning requirements.
    
ACTIONS COMPLETED: N/A
    
STATUS: Recommend closure.
