Retention

• Introduction
• Soldiers taking a European out often do not think
  through all the ramifications of ending their
  affiliation with the military. They frequently
  find themselves without the support they had
  taken for granted.
• USAR service offers Soldiers at least some of the
  support they had while on Active duty
  (PX/Commissary, access to Installations, medical
  coverage while on duty, etc).
• The 7th ARCOM is the USAR Command for Europe. We
  have units spread across Germany and in Italy
  that allow Soldiers to attend Battle Assemblies.
