Soldier Readiness Processing

Last updated

Soldier Readiness Processing (SRP) is a program within the United States Army, including its reserve components (the Army Reserve and Army National Guard) to qualify soldiers for pending deployments. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] SRP Level 1 should be completed at the unit level; SRP Level 2 is most often completed at an established location with identified stations.

It is important to note that even though a deployment for the soldier's unit may or may not necessarily be imminent or pending, soldiers are still required to complete one SRP annually.
