  • Interview with Tennessee State Guard's MAJ Anthony
    Message from the President Maj. Gen. (CA) Jay Coggan s of this writing, the nation has been at war for 120 days with a vicious enemy that attacks Americans at the cellular level, the COVID-19 virus. Over 1,000,000 Americans have been infected, and at least 60,000 Americans have died from the illness - more than all of the American Soldiers, Marines, Airmen, and ASailors who died in the Vietnam War that lasted roughly 10 years. This pandemic led to a response by the nation’s State Defense Forces (SDFs). And fortunately for the nation, our SDFs were ready to respond. As President of the State Guard Association of the United States, it is incumbent upon me to survey SDFs to determine how active we are in this national response, as well as to determine how effective our response is now and how it might be better. I’m pleased to report that the response of our SDFs is outstanding. SGAUS tracked those states and territories that have been called upon to respond. In reaching out in the last 30 days I found that 13 states and territories put Soldiers on State Active Duty (SAD). Ten of these states (Alaska, California, Connecticut, Maryland, New Jay M. Coggan York, Ohio, Puerto Rico, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia) put Soldiers on some form of paid President, State Guard Association SAD, 3 states had both paid and unpaid SAD Soldiers (California, Ohio, and Texas), and of the United States 4 states activated Soldiers without pay (Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, and South Carolina).

    A GUIDE TO DIRECTORS OF HOMELAND SECURITY, EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, AND MILITARY DEPARTMENTS IN THE STATES AND TERRITORIES OF THE UNITED STATES A Report Prepared by the Federal Research Division, Library of Congress under an Interagency Agreement with the Commission on the National Guard and Reserves December 2007 Researchers: Alice R. Buchalter Patrick Miller Project Manager: Alice R. Buchalter Federal Research Division Library of Congress Washington, D.C. 20540−4840 Tel: 202−707−3900 Fax: 202−707−3920 E-Mail: [email protected] Homepage: http://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/ p 59 Years of Service to the Federal Government p 1948 – 2007 Library of Congress – Federal Research Division Guide to State Directors PREFACE This report provides, for each of the 54 states and territories, the identity and responsibilities of the directors of the following offices: state emergency management agency; state homeland security agency; and state adjutant general and/or military department. In states where the functions of homeland security and emergency management are combined, this is so indicated. The report also enumerates the qualifications necessary for the director position and indicates the statutory or regulatory authority under which the position exists. For each state, the researchers have retained the language used in the respective state codes and/or statutes. The authors of this report researched three primary online sources: state codes and statutes; executive orders; and Web sites of the respective agencies. In instances where laws could not be identified online, the resources of the Law Library of Congress were used. Finally, for those states/territories that did not provide the requisite information online, the researchers telephoned the relevant homeland security or emergency management office.

You have taken the first steps on a journey that we are confident will change your life. Upon completion of your Initial Entry Training you will earn the title of “soldier” within the Mississippi State Guard and with continued honorable service you will always be a “Soldier for Life.” The Mississippi State Guard is comprised of magnificent civilians who have volunteered their time to serve the great state of Mississippi and are out there every day making a difference in their communities. The Army Values of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, and personal courage are more than mere words that we recite. Taken together and integrated through an understanding and appreciation of the sacrifices made by the generations of Citizen-Soldiers who previously answered the call to serve their state... those shared values and beliefs become your moral and ethical identity as Soldiers and trusted Mississippi State Guard professionals. Over the next few weeks, we will help you transition from a citizen to a trusted Mississippi State Guard professional, by developing your character, competence, commitment and teaching you what it means to be a Soldier who is physically and mentally ready to accomplish any assigned mission. We are confident that you are up to the task. We hope you will find this experience personally and professionally rewarding, and, if you let it, it will set you on a path of continued success.
