xone THANK YOU! That is great information. I agree with you that at present time the guard is under Title 32 (under state authority.) My question is did the president ASK for Active/Reserves on AD are Title 10? This part I have no answer other then hear say.

meadsjn "he has not yet ordered that"

I hope you're right. I'm only going by the word of two reporters i heard. Which both are "usually" correct. Both using "their source" which means nothing to me.
The letter that went out by General Milley suggests there is something unusual is taking place. It's nerving to think the military might disobey such a basic order.

The unusual something is the possible use of the Insurrection Act. 28 years since the last time. I think Gen Milley and Q's exhortation on 'oaths', is a reminder more to public servants than troops. Although, I once had a young Marine tell me he thought he had 'off time' from the Corps. So it is possible that younger folks may not get it the same way that the SecDef (appears not to) thinks his opinion in the public square matters. When it comes to legal orders, your personal opinion doesn't mean squat.
