in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This law lets the military assign reserve members on active duty (not just training) to any duty regular troops can do. The Secretary of the relevant military branch sets the rules for these assignments. This overrides other laws that might limit such assignments.

This section covers reserve members who are on active duty for reasons other than training. It says these members may be given any duty job that the law allows for regular, full-time members of the same military branch. The Secretary in charge of that branch must first set regulations covering how these assignments work. The phrase "notwithstanding any other provision of law" means this rule wins even if another law says something different.

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a member of a reserve component who is on active duty other than for training may, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary concerned, be detailed or assigned to any duty authorized by law for members of the regular component of the armed force concerned.
