Approximately 130 California National Guard soldiers stepped off a commercial airliner into the Arizona desert Oct. 25 to augment Fort Huachuca's force protection mission. The soldiers of Company C, 1st Battalion of the 185th Infantry Regiment of the 40th Infantry Division were mobilized on Oct. 12. The San Jose, Calif. area unit will support local security forces for a period of 365 days with an option for a second 365-day period.

And people asked me why I didn’t join the Reserves or Guard when I got out. “It’s a sham job and helps you get some extra cash,” they would claim. Yeah, right. Imagine being the schmuck who bought that line and now you’re away from your life for one or two years.
