US Army Reserve Evaluates Support Units for Possible Southern Command Mission Amid Cuba Tensions
The US Army Reserve is assessing the availability of various support units, including military police, medical, and engineering formations, for potential deployment under US Southern Command within 90 to 120 days. While the internal document does not specify Cuba or any deployment orders, multiple US officials indicate the planning relates to Cuba amid increased US economic and political pressure. The Trump administration has called for change in Cuba, which has faced fuel shortages and power outages, while Cuban leaders have condemned US actions.
