Abstract
This Essay examines America's increasing reliance on National Guard and Reserve members for defense and the often un-met employment and healthcare needs of these service members, especially those residing in rural areas. Part II traces the historic role of Reserve components and America's current dependence on these service members. Part III discusses the employment and healthcare needs of the National Guard and Reserve and how Congress has attempted to meet these needs. Part III also discusses how National Guard and Reserve members living in rural areas face obstacles when trying to find employment and obtain healthcare. This Essay concludes with the implications that will likely result from a failure to meet the needs of National Guard and Reserve members.
