Mississippi’s National Guard remains steady, reliable, and accessible. As members of an operational force, regularly used by the President and the Gover- nor of Mississippi, our Soldiers and Airmen contribute daily to our nation’s overseas and domestic security objectives. The Army (ARNG) and Air (ANG) National Guard are full partners with their re- spective services in providing combat resources and enabling units for the overseas fight. However, the National Guard also makes ground and air forces available to the Governor when needed. This fiscal year we’ve had two major domestic operations, in April 2011 Mississippi Army National Guard troops were called upon for security operations when a tor- nado struck along the Mississippi River, and weeks later were called again for flood operations. We have steadily continued in our overseas operations with nearly 4,000 Army and Air National Guard warriors serving in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kosovo. Several were also deployed to Kuwait and other areas for overseas operations.

  • Mississippi Military Department 2012 Annual Report
    Mississippi Military Department 2012 Annual Report 1 The Adjutant General of Mississippi Major General Augustus L. Collins The Honorable Phil Bryant Governor of Mississippi Mississippi State Capitol Jackson, Mississippi Dear Governor Bryant, The 2012 Annual Report of the Mississippi Military Department details, with pride, the outstanding stewardship your National Guard has demonstrated with state and federal appropriations. Our Soldiers and Airmen are the best this nation has to offer, and I am extremely proud of each of them for their ser- vice to our state and nation. In 2012, approximately 3,000 Soldiers and Airmen deployed overseas in support of contingency opera- tions, mostly in Afghanistan. Our men and women continue to train for wartime missions, but remain steady to support domestic missions and response to state emergencies as well. Our aviation units supported the Department of Homeland Security’s Southwest Border Mission and the State Medical Response System exercise in North Mississippi. Hurricane season brought Hurricane Isaac to Mississippi shores in August with 1,500 Soldiers and Airmen answering the call. We met many challenges in 2012, the dedication and professionalism of our forces prevailed as they have done for the past 214 years. This report provides a look at how we are doing, a few of our many accomplishments, and the exceptional skills, training, and devotion of our Guard men and women. I sincerely thank you for your untiring support, and taking the opportunity to review our efforts in 2012. AUGUSTUS L.
