Nearly 40,000 reserve troops activated By Pauline Jelinek THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — A huge increase in the call up of National Guard and reserve troops in the past week has pushed the number now serving in the counter-terror war to more than 12 percent of the total force, the Pentagon said Wednesday. As the United States continued its buildup for a possible war with Iraq, some 38,600 were activat ed during the week, nearly double the previous largest weekly jump since the September 2001 attacks on America. “Some ... will deploy to the Middle East, oth ers will serve here in the homeland,” said Lt. Col. Dan Stoneking, a Defense Departmem spokesman. Under an order signed by Bush three daysaftei the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, up to 1 million guard and resent troops can be called to serve for up to two years. Officials have said it is unlikely that number would be needed. The total now serving under that'order isovei 150,000, said Stoneking. It stood at 58,000jusl a month ago, steadily stepping up each week since then with increases of 15,000 to 20,00(1 until the big jump of the past week. The figures do not include guard and reserve members nor mally serving around the globe in a variety of missions.
