of available resources. Participants will include the USD (P&R), the
Assistant Secretary for Manpower and Reserve Affairs of each Military
Department, the Director of the Defense Human Resources Activity, other
officials of the DoD the Secretary of Defense determines appropriate,
and private entities that participate.
