So all these national guardsmen and choppers are coming in for weekend “parties “... Honestly yes they could be. When I was in the Guards we had at least a couple of three day drill weekends a year. Transporting guards in a chopper on a Friday then would not be that unusual. One weekend in the fall we were flown almost 500 miles away for artillery range practice.

Yes. That’s why Guardsmen are called weekend warriors.
