LTG Charles D. Luckey, U.S. Army Reserve Commanding General and Chief, Army Reserve, addresses concerns about the requirements for Ready Force X units during a training event at Operation Cold Steel II at Fort McCoy, Wis., April 22, 2018. During his time at Fort McCoy, Luckey explained that RFX is a verb used to describe the approach the U.S. Army Reserve is taking to prepare for a “worst case war scenario.” RFX emphasizes unit readiness as well as individual readiness.
