Army Using Policy to Deny Reserve Officer Resignations
<H2></H2>

The Army Reserve, taxed by recruiting shortfalls and war-zone duty, has adopted a policy barring officers from leaving the service if their field is undermanned or they have not been deployed to Iraq, to Afghanistan or for homeland defense missions.
The reserve has used the unpublicized policy, first adopted in 2004 and strengthened in a May 2005 memo signed by Lt. Gen. James R. Helmly, its commander, to disapprove the resignations of at least 400 reserve officers, according to Army figures.

"It's not the American people or the U.S. Congress who are emboldening the enemy, It's the failed policy of this president — going to war without a strategy, going to war prematurely."
