Yeh, but they don't really belong to him, and could give a F-word. Meanwhile they do belong to someone, someone who should be raising bloody hell. That's one difference with Guard and Reserve folks, they have a long time attachement to their units, which is good and bad, but mostly good and something the Regular forces could emulate a bit. During the early Afghanistan business, some Air Guard units sent their First Shirt, even though they were only sending a "slice" of their unit. The Command Senior NCO then reported back to the CO about how "his" people were being treated, and hell was raised as appropriate.
