Dateline Washington 3f ' BY REP JACK BRINKLEY |jl|W A Third District Congressman | THE NATIONAL GUARD “Guardsmen Called Out” blazed the headlines many times this past year; citizen soldiers called out to cope with massive surges of violent protest— of assault, arson and vandalism—on college cam puses and highways. “Trigger happy”, “poorly trained”, “immature”, some have called them. But let’s take a look at the average Guardsman; He took a dual oath to defend his Nation and his State. He is sworn to obey the orders of the Presi dent and the Governor of his State. He is about 23 years old, healthy and physi cally fit. He is probably married and may be one of 21% who are fathers. His typical leader is a National Guard officer who is 30 years old, married, father of 2 and has completed 13.4 year of civilian schooling. He is a responsible member of his community who you see in church on Sunday and at Little League baseball games. Between January 1, 1968 and May 1, 1970 ap proximately 224,000 Guardsmen were called to duty on 191 occasions to help civil authorities in the control of civil disturbances. Civil disorders, serious enough to require the use of Guardsmen, took an upward surge in May of this year. In the three week period May 1-21 they were employed in 43 cities spread across 23 states. Primarily, these disturbances were initiated by militants on college campuses who weren’t even students! Thus it is doubly distressing when college stu dents are injured. The headlines reflect this dis tress. But little has been said about the many Guardsmen who have also been injured in their at tempts to quell the lawless, violent element of our society—the real trouble makers. The Guard must, of course, perform in a res ponsible manner, using discipline and good judg ment under very trying circumstances. Let us sa lute them for their good record of performance in this regard and for having spent many long, ex hausting days learning how to better deal with dis orders and restore domestic tranquillity to our land.
