How about we fix it so that in case of national emergency the guard goes

FIRST
before the regular troops. Great idea huh?


You been living under a rock or something? Guard troops have been in-theater
for these operations from the beginning. Infantry, engineers, transportation
and signal units--you name it. While some AC units were still stateside.

Think we would still get everyone
flocking to the National Guard in that case?


There has not been a draft since about 1973. You need to get out and read a
bit more; try to keep up with current events (or at least keep current
within three *decades*).

I know Bush would have been first
in line to join up.. Right?


Are you now claiming to possess a crystal ball, or the ability to read
peoples' minds?
