I spoke with him this morning and he said he would do whatever he could do to help us. He said name another 4421, active or reserve and he will try to get that person. I also suggested the idea of a law school graduate awaiting TBS or NJS assignment. He is looking into that. I am asking around about sharp 4421s that I can get here immediately. The problem is that Bethany is not IRR. You are correct in saying that IRR Marines can be ordered to active duty wherever they are needed. Bethany fulfilled her IRR requirements a long, long time ago. She is a drilling reservist on the Quantico T/O to my understanding. MARCENT has no ability to order her on active duty.

Are saying the issue is that Reservists cannot be ordered to active duty for the needs of the Marine Corps? We used to get calls all the time from IRR soldiers who got orders with just over a year left on their contracts because the Army was activating them and needed them. Regardless of where she drills or doesn't drill (who owns her), am I wrong in thinking that? She can only get orders she agrees to get? Neal Neal A.

Ms. Gallagher is Sgt Trujillo's OpSponsor. Looks like Sgt Trujillo doesn't want to execute the ADOS orders. As you know, ADOS is voluntary. Not sure how you want to proceed on this. The main POC on orders processing is Ms. Gallagher. However, we are JRS, JAD, are here to assist where we can. I'm available to discuss at your convenience at (571) 256-4716.

I received a call concerning the ADOS orders for Sgt Trujillo on the GCM for SSgt Wuterich. Sgt Trujillo was requested by the SSgt, however, Sgt Trujillo has a new job, starting college, and does not want to accept these ADOS orders. ADOS is normally voluntary, but I didn't know if there are any special rules for recall for courts martial. Do you know if the Sgt can decline the orders, and what are the ramifications, if any? Can she be ordered involuntarily to the GCM? Thank you Sir.
