The term Total Force has been historically used to describe the relationship between reserve and active components of the armed services. As a result of the Desert Storm experience, concerns about the Total Force concept in practice were identified by both reserve and active medical personnel. Utilizing the results of recent studies and input from reserve Navy Nurse Corps officers serving on active duty in key positions, this essay provides a clear definition of the Total Force concept and provides a model for implementation throughout the Navy Medical Department.
“总兵力”一词在历史上一直用于描述武装部队预备役与现役部队之间的关系。由于沙漠风暴行动的经历，预备役和现役医务人员都发现了对实际应用中的总兵力概念的担忧。本文利用近期研究结果以及在关键岗位上现役的海军护士军团预备役军官提供的意见，给出了总兵力概念的明确定义，并提供了一个在整个海军医务部实施的模型。
