Should Reserve units send those who are not MOS qualified to Annual Training?

Should a soldier in the reserves be required to attend annual training even if he/she isn't MOSQd for the unit they're in? For example, I have been 12B Combat Engineer qualified since 2011. I am currently in a MP unit but I am not qualified as an MP. I have been in for over 5 years and this is the 1st year I will be attending AT. I'm glad I get to go, but do you think every unit should require soldiers who at least hold an MOS to attend AT? I think they should.

If you are a 12B assigned to an MP unit, then that tells me you are either assigned to a 12B slot within that MP unit, therefore you are MOS qual and can go to AT or you are slotted in an MP slot. Either way, you have an MOS and can go to AT. Since you are not an IET soldier, then get your bags ready and brush up on your engineer skills. Hell, if you play it right, you can assist your platoon/company in planning and prepping defensive positions. And just remember one thing....SAPPERS FORWARD!!!

Yes, you are required to attend. Budgets being what they are though you could probably gonto the MP RC course in lieu of AT. That would get you MOSQ'd

I wish sir. I'd go to any training that they offered me but they won't even send me to school let alone to any other type of training unfortunately.
