After the outbreak of war, Austria sent 4 divisions from the reserve army to participate in the war; Germany sent 29 divisions from the reserve army to participate in the war. After the Second World War, many countries in the world followed the path of combining lean standing forces and powerful reserve forces, and paid more attention to reserve construction. The Soviet Union formed a complete management system in the construction of reserve forces, which continuously expanded the scale of reserve forces. By the end of the 1980s, the number of reserve forces reached approximately 25 million. The United States has always emphasized the importance of reserve construction and regards reserve as the primary source of expansion of active forces during wartime. The reserve is divided into the National Guard and the Federal Reserve, with about 1.8 million people in the early 1990s. The National Guard was developed from the colonial militias before the founding of the United States; the Federal Reserve is mainly composed of veterans and is under the direct jurisdiction of each service. The United States reserve is not only well-organized, well-equipped, and conducting regular military training, but also participates in various forms of exercises with active-duty troops. Once mobilized, it can quickly enter combat. Germany's reserve service is divided into three types of standing reserve, emergency application reserve and alternate reserve. At the end of the 1980s, there were 2.2 million reserve personnel. In wartime, the German army can be guaranteed to expand to 4 million.

The above measures ensured the improvement of the military quality of reserve personnel and the rapid implementation of wartime mobilization. For example, during the Fourth Middle East War, nearly 300,000 reserve troops were mobilized within 48 hours, which increased the total strength of the Israeli army from more than 110,000. To more than 400,000 people. Countries around the world implement reserve service, and they have different chronologies, names, organizational forms, and personnel conditions.

Reserve age. The age of reserve soldiers starts from 18 years in most countries. The highest ages are 35 years for China and France, 45 years for Germany, 50 years for the Soviet Union, and 55 years for the United Kingdom and Israel. The age of reserve officers depends on the rank and rank of the officer It is usually 3 to 5 years older than the active officer, the captain officer is up to 40 to 50 years old, the school officer is up to 50 to 60 years old, and the general officer is up to 65 years old. Classification of reserve. According to the needs of wartime mobilization, according to the age of reserve personnel, length of service and training in the army, and professional and technical conditions, they are divided into two or three categories. The first category is the first group of targets for wartime mobilization. The third category is the object of continuous mobilization. Reserve training.

There are basically two types: the first is a marshalling type. Reserve personnel usually organize, train, and carry out activities according to a certain organizational form, and they are converted to active forces in wartime. The second is a non-marshalling type. Reserve personnel are not usually organized. Only the recruited troops and pre-appointed positions are determined, and they participate in training and various activities as required. Reserve registration. The registration of reserve personnel shall be specifically organized and implemented by military service agencies, a registration card and verification system shall be established, and reserve personnel certificates shall be issued.
