The difference between being a service member 24/7 and being one part time. In most reserve components, you have a Unit Training Assembly monthly (that's your one weekend a month), and you'll have an Annual Training period of two weeks (give or take, sometimes) annually. You'll still have your civilian occupation, but reservists traditionally don't get trained to the same level of proficiency as their regular counterparts, and there have been some negative results from it. National Guard soldiers in Iraq traditionally suffered an attrition rate much higher than the Regular Army.
