Theres selective reserves, where you dont drill but can be called up i an absolute emergency. then theres active reserves, like me, who train on a regular basis , and are more likely to be called up than selective. I only know one person who was called up as a seleced reserve. He was a rage instructor and was called up a year and a half afer retiremet to train the huge amount of people joinig marines/navy after 9/11. Active reserve, well, i pack my seabag whenever a major hurricane rolls in.
