Hey Line Doggie --- I may have seen you on TV ...
at least I saw some guys from the N.Y. ARNG.
Military channel has a program " Firepower: On Guard " this Memorial Day. Check it out ! They showed how the Air and Army Guard works for the Governor usually, but can and have been Federalized, and deployed.
They showed the 42 I.D. ( The half rainbow patch ) and Maj. Gen. "T", and a Capt. Flynn. They had film of you guys deployed at the WTC area. They also showed a Fighter jet taking off from a NY ANG field.
Good program --- It could be posted over at Mil.com so that whenever a wannabe* or their family member asks a-g-a-i-n the s-a-m-e o-l-d questions that get posted at least once a month about the National Guard... They would be told to just watch the program.
* {and almost never does the ingrate/numbskull ever bother to post a "Thank you" , or even better - post a photo of themselves upon graduation from Basic Training.}
