Each has a different mandate, so they can't really be compared.
It like trying to say whos more VFM the Gardai or the health service.It is only by contemplation of the incompetent that we can appreciate the difficulties and accomplishments of the competent.

I've noticed this thread for some time. There is a value factor lurking. Reserves of any type must be readily assimilated into their parent units, and frontlined as much as possible in operational tasks. Any reserve category, green, blue, or navy, that cannot be used should be disbanded as a waste of time and money. Hopefully the Naval reserve, with periods of full time training, will routinely be deployed to shipboard duties. Most causes of exclusion is because of lack of opportunity to fully qualify as watchkeepers. I think the Jury is still out on VFM.

Of course in 2005 the NSR establishment was cut by 20% (AR was cut by around 8% or so).
The 2011 reorg the NSR was cut by 50% (as was the AR).
But IMHO the deployment of 3 of the NSR Coys should be looked at (as with the 16 non-barracks Inf Coys).
