Upon receiving a call from the XVIII Airborne Corps Headquarters, the 82nd Airborne Division issues an alert order to the on-call Division Ready Brigade (DRB). Within 18-hours of initial notification, elements of the brigade must be in the air, Success of the DRB depends on the Air Force core competency of rapid global mobility. Several years have passed since the National Command Authority (N CA) deployed the DRB in support of vital national interests. During this time, the military experienced a significant reduction in personnel, decline in forward presence, and problems associated with aging weapon systems. Understandably, issues such as these cause concern over Air Mobility Command's (AMC) readiness to support the DRB.
