They just upped the National Guard to 15,000 in DC. And just because your husband didn't get a call to comeback, doesn't mean other bases are not participating. And if they were, they would not be briefed on what is going on yet.
Couldn't see it the video very well, but the man said the truckstop convoy was armed. Took part in several of these, no weapons were to be visible on US public roads.
Policy might've changed since then, or this convoy is taking care of some real business.

Yes. I did not mean DC! There are people claiming NG is mobilizing in Texas. That is all.
Like OP stated, military convoys happen all the time. I see it a lot in Cali.

I believe I saw at least 1 or 2 of the soldiers walking on the ground as part of the convoy openly carrying M4s.
Is that common / normal?
Armed?
