If this is such a big deal, I fully expect the individual to make his own choice to help or not. The “higher ups” cop out is tired. I have given my subordinates direct orders to attend to their families if needed.
But…. I think the bigger deal here is that the 82nd is on immediate recall, as inferred by the post. That would be standard to not allow volunteer work or even to attend to family if activation is imminent. Unfortunately we may have boots on the ground in short order if this is the case. Will be wild.
GRF doesn't mean that there's a planned deployment, they're just the ones on call in case anything pops off.
That’s what “immediate recall” means bruh
I'm intimately aware of what immediate recall means, my point was that there are always units on GRF (the whole point of which is to react to surprises around the globe), and that alone is no reason to expect to see 'boots on ground' anywhere.
If unit commanders aren’t allowing members to tend to their families or take leave to volunteer in state…. alert time is likely reduced from a general “always ready” posture.
