That’s what “immediate recall” means bruh
I'm intimately aware of what immediate recall means, my point was that there are always units on GRF (the whole point of which is to react to surprises around the globe), and that alone is no reason to expect to see 'boots on ground' anywhere.
If unit commanders aren’t allowing members to tend to their families or take leave to volunteer in state…. alert time is likely reduced from a general “always ready” posture.
GRF isn't the general readiness posture, it's when your shit is packed and you need to be able to report to your unit within 4 hrs sober. Most units cycle through this 'on call' status for a month or so at a time. It's like CQ or Staff Duty but longer and gayer.
So wtf are you arguing against my post about? It’s pretty obvious being on a higher alert level doesn’t mean you are definitely going anywhere, but it also means the probability you are heading out has increased.
Like being on Alert 5 sitting on the cat ready to launch…. Doesn’t mean you are going but there is a higher likelihood than sitting in your stateroom.
