Official Magazine of the National Guard Counterdrug Program Winter the CatalystOfficial magazine of the National Guard Counterdrug Program winter 2011 hief’s Corner ‘Actions speak louder than words’ may be a well-worn phrase, but it is no less true. Lofty words don’t serve the needs of the community, but tangible results do. In this issue, you will see the results and efforts of our Counterdrug personnel throughout the country. This magazine highlights what is happening Air National Guard locally in your communities and how partnerships with federal, state, local, law Col.

J32 Counterdrug Division As my time as Director of the National Guard Counterdrug Program comes to an end, I am filled with pride in the accomplishments of the incredible men and women of the National Guard Counterdrug Program, and humbleness in having had the opportunity to serve with each of you. I have been enriched personally and professionally by all the Counterdrug personnel I’ve come in contact with. Time and tenure aside, I believe this to be the perfect occasion for a new voice and a fresh perspective. I am deeply grateful to the Counterdrug Family and to each of you for your innovative work, your dedication, your warm collegiality, and for everything you’ve helped me learn. I salute Col. Tracy Settle and the rest of the new leadership team, and I look forward to applauding all of you as the new strategy brings new success. I leave Counterdrug with great confidence in the people here, knowing that they are capable of overcoming any hurdle that will arise, singularly, and more importantly, together. We have managed to assemble a very competent and pragmatic group that provides excellent support to the management team. This provides me with a sense of pride and gratitude that is indescribable. This past year has been more challenging than any other, but I have hope that the sacrifices we have made this past year will help us to be even better in the future. Our ability to adapt to future challenges is uncanny. We are a growing innovative team filled with dedication and optimism in everything we do. During this challenging time in our nation’s history, your contributions to the Counterdrug Program have helped immeasurably by defending the homeland. Performing your jobs with great distinction all the while protecting those who threaten the values we hold so dear, means a great deal. Enjoy this issue, and I encourage you to continue to submit your photos and stories. 2 The Catalyst THE CATALYST This Army and Air Force funded quarterly magazine is an authorized publication for the members of the U.S. military services.

  • Montana Law Protects National Guard Members on State Active Duty
    MT-2015-NG (Updated May, 2015) Montana Law Protects National Guard Members On State Active Duty By Kyle Helmick1 Today’s National Guard traces its origins to 1636, when the Massachusetts Bay Colony established the Massachusetts militia to defend the colony against attacks by the Pequot Indians. Other colonies and later states established similar state militias. Like every other state legislature, the Montana Legislature has enacted a provision to protect members of the Montana Army National Guard and Air National Guard when they are on state active duty, called by the Governor of Montana for state emergencies like fires, floods, riots, etc. Montana law protects members of the National Guard from employment discrimination based on their National Guard status and gives them the right to reinstatement in their civilian jobs after voluntary or involuntary military training or service, including state active duty when called by the Governor of Montana.2 An employer is required to give an employee unpaid leave for military training or service, including state active duty. It is unlawful for an employer to charge such leave to the employee’s vacation or sick leave balance. The employee may opt out of or stay in the employer’s healthcare plan during the time that he or she is away from work for training or service. You must apply for reemployment within: ● safe travel time plus eight hours for active duty of under 30 days. ● fourteen days after termination for active duty between 30 and 180 days. ● 90 days after termination for active duty of more than 180 days.

  • In Memory of Died in the Crash of a Douglas A-26 Invader
    IN MEMORY OF DIED IN THE CRASH OF A DOUGLAS A-26 INVADER AIRCRAFT IN THE BIG BELT MOUNTAINS OF MONTANA SEPTEMBER 16, 1947 WHILE IN SERVICE OF THE by Troy Helmick . Great Falls, Montana 1940 Geographically the third largest of the 48 states, Montana had a primarily rural pop- ulation, with less than half of the people living in cities or towns. Great Falls was the second largest city in Montana, but at less than 30,000 people it was not large by national standards. As World War II loomed on the horizon, Great Falls, Montana suddenly became directly connected to events in the distant regions of the world. The expansion of Japanese forces into the Pacific, and the Aleutian Islands in particular, had many U.S. officials very concerned. Inland transportation routes by air or ground that could be used to move people and supplies from the United States to Alaska did not exist. The need for an airway across the vast unmapped region had been recognized by General Billy Mitchell as early as 1920. Finally in 1940, work was under way to establish a string of primary and emergency airfields with radio range navigational facilities across northwestern Canada to Alaska. On December 7, 1941 when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, the completion of the airway became more urgent, and the construction of a highway was also deemed necessary. Highway survey and construction crews were in the field by February 1942. The airway and the highway generally followed the same route, and in many ways, each complimented the other.
