Um.... I'll give you three guesses, and they all begin with "I". [/QUOTE]No. There are plenty of soldiers state-bound. 30 Thousand plus there and are on the way to the region. Iraq and other recent disasters have caused much more of the Gaurd to be active full-time for longer stretches and more frequently.

Could they have gotten there faster? I hope so, if only to be better next time a major disaster hits a medium size city(God Forbid). The scope of all the events combined is difficult to fathom much less reason what would be an appropriate response time. Hindsight will most certainly be 20/20
