Of corse they do things different in Wisconsin... No they don't - those are the same assignments as Minnesota and the rest of the states in volume 5 of the '96 "Police Call."

Many areas are looking into distributing this information via channels in the frequency ranges we all like to scan.

Gov. Perpich told DN> the Federal government they couldn't have his National Guard DN> troops because he needed them more. The Supreme Court told the DN> Governor that they're not his to begin with. The legislation DN> known as the "National Guard Act of 1903" that formed the DN> National Guard is a piece of FEDERAL law, giving control of DN> these troops to Congress and/or the President. In justifying DN> the Act, Congress cited their constitutional authority to raise DN> a army, not their authority to oversee the state training of DN> militias. I guess you are just a bit confused. Yes, the DOD has final say over the national guard units. So, if a unit is on state duty, and gets called to federal duty, they must respond in support of that federal duty. Absolute, without a doubt. No one is saying anything different. But, what I am saying, is that the units also belong to the state, and the units can be called to state duty by the governor of that state, with only notification to forcecomm being the requirement insofar as the federal side. Again, at any time during that state duty, they can be called to federal uty, whether or not the governer likes it. DN> In this state anyway, the uniforms say "U.S. Air Force", DN> "U.S. Army", etc, and when the National Guard traded some DN> property with the airport a few years back, DOD not the DN> Governor had the final say on the swap. Yes, and???? It was no doubt federal property, assigned to that national guard. Of course the DOD would have final say. What was the point? Again, to call up the national guard, for state duty, the gov of the state merely has to call them to state duty. This is often done, when the AG of the state knows they are going to be federalized, and he wants to get a jump on things, or when the unit is needed for instate disaster duty. Call your local National Guard commander, and check it out. --- PPoint 1.98 * Origin: KD4RME, The POINT of it all....
