Seymour (a reservist who spoke to the council) described the reserve component's global deployments, training contributions and local presence. He listed personnel counts at multiple sites (e.g., ~1,500 at Luke, ~550 at Davis-Monthan), said reservists fill active‑duty shortfalls ("we exceed what they ask for by 345%"), and highlighted training roles including F‑35 instructor pilots, aeromedical staging, and firefighter responses. He framed the reserve as a source of highly experienced personnel with strong community ties to Buckeye.
