Nearly 200 Maryland National Guardsmen leave for Middle East

BALTIMORE, Md - Nearly 200 members of the Maryland National Guard have parted with their families to serve in the Middle East.

Media outlets report that the members of the 29th Combat Aviation Brigade received a send-off on Sunday at the base in Edgewood. The Guardsmen will receive a month's training in Fort Hood, Texas before leaving to serve nine months in Kuwait.

The unit will coordinate Army aircraft - helicopters, airplanes, drones - for soldiers on the front lines.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought the National Guard were to guard the nation, not serve as auxiliary Army.

They need to be deploying to the Texas boarder and allowed to open fire on illegals! I bet in a week, no more illegals attempt to cross!
