Maryland National Guard units and service members started the process of activation Friday in preparation for the state’s response to the coronavirus outbreak.
Gov. Larry Hogan, who declared a state emergency on March 5, activated the Guard a week later. More than 2,000 members of the Guard are expected to be called to duty statewide.
Lt. Col. Wayde Minami said members of the Guard were being processed into service in small groups and heading out for various missions. While some guard members and their vehicles were spotted on the streets of Baltimore near Camden Yards and a downtown hotel Friday afternoon, no mission has yet been established in the city, Minami said.

ReplyDeleteThis is normal. You don't want wait until we have a crisis before we try to address one. Troops need to be put on ready alert (not from bed at home) for deployment when needed. It's in your interests.
