ACTION: Notice of establishment.

SUMMARY: The Defense Advisory Board for Employer Support of the Guard

interest and in accordance with the provisions of Pub. L. 92-463, the 
``Federal Advisory Committee Act,'' title 5 U.S.C., Appendix 2. The 
ESGR will provide advice to the Secretary of Defense about issues 
concerning Reservists and their civilian employers, to include 
recommending policies and priorities for employer support actions and 
programs.
    The board will be composed of a national cross-section of industry, 
public and private sector leaders whose understanding of employer 
issues, as they are affected by employee membership in the guard and 
reserve, will serve as a foundation for providing input and 
recommendations to the Secretary of Defense on guard and reserve 
employment issues of public and private employers.
