Our NOSC is getting an armed MA soon, how about yours?

Our CO just mention on a few drill weekend ago that we will be getting an armed MA soon. Just wonder is every NOSC getting it or just "me"?

Is that just to provide a Guardian Angel during the training drill?

I am glad to hear that they are FINALLY doing something about this. Not sure just one armed MA will suffice and it will be interesting to see what their duty restrictions will be once they are on site.

My NOSC is already full of MAs, I'm pretty sure nothing will change for us.

Lame.
Obviously an improvement over no one 'officially' armed, but all members of our military should be protectors, not protectees.
Plus if there were ammo as well as arms it wouldn't have had to be a 16 hour drive to get qualified :-)
