Reynolds prepared to send National Guard troops from Iowa to border

Woohoo go Iowa! As a reservist I won’t get to take a turn but I wouldn’t mind going down there for my AT to help out!

I am impressed beyond my ability to describe it and hope we have more states participate until the wall is built. A caravan of Central American Immigrants recently stopped their Caravan in Mexico when the news broke the story that our troops will be involved with monitoring cross border traffic with all the Infra-Red and other heat imaging tools at their disposal. Our troops will aid with monitoring and detection and can't participate in arrests or any law enforcement actions so most people with trepidation over sending our troops to the border should relax their concerns. I would rather have them on our Mexican Border than patrolling Syrian, Afghanistan or Iraq providing targets for the opposition.

I must agree that overall this is nothing new.
