Retired Army Nurse corps officers (RANCs) are among those individuals whose critical skills would be needed in the event of a mobilization. Therefore, it was deemed appropriate to survey those individuals eligible for recall to ascertain their personal and professional readiness, as well as the attitudes, opinions, needs, and concerns regarding mobilization. The study findings have potential implications for Army Nurse Corps (ANC) leaders in program and policy development, strategic planning, and formulating readiness plans. The population studied consisted of all Regular Army (RA), Army of the United States (AUS), or Army Reserve National Guard (ARNG)retired members of the ANC below the age of 60 years, medically or nonmedically retired, and on record with the Army Reserve Personnel Center (ARPERCEN), St. Louis, Missouri. A mail survey developed specifically for the study was sent to 748 subjects who met the aforementioned eligibility criteria. A response rate of 81.7% (n=576) was realized using a total of four followup contacts to nonrespondents. A variety of multivariate statistical analyses using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS-X) were utilized to interpret the data. Content analysis was used to interpret open-ended questions.
