Reserve General duties

#1

Post by Darren J. Whiteside » 16 Oct 2003, 02:56

Hello,

I was scanning the Generals listed on the website, 'Axis Biographical Research', and I noticed that many were put in reserve status near the end of the war (due mainly to age?). I was wondering if anyone can tell me what duties, if any, a Reserve General would perform at this stage in the war? Does he still have to report for duty occasionally, or would he wait for a call-up? Also, some were put "at the disposal of " different commands. What does this mean? Any input will be welcomed.

regards,

Darren
