The mobilization will affect approximately 80 Soldiers from the unit.

  • 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.

This report contains information about the services provided to our country and the State of Iowa during this fiscal year by the citizen-soldiers of the Iowa National Guard. The Iowa National Guard had several outstanding achievements during this past fiscal year. The most significant has been the mobilization of over 4,700 soldiers and airmen to worldwide locations to support US efforts against the global war on terrorism since September 2001. Every Iowa Guard citizen-soldier that deployed was the consummate product of our core functions. We successfully deployed combat-ready soldiers in record numbers because we achieved the high standards of our established services, products, and activities. Another major achievement was our continued high national ranking in the Army Community of Excellence National Guard category competition. We again placed in the top three states in the nation in this highly competitive program to evaluate and reward program performance excellence and continual improvement. The Iowa Guard was judged the first in the nation during 2001 and 2003. We continue to be one of the best three National Guards in the nation.

  • 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.
