Letter From Leadership THE ADJUTANT GENERAL OF GEORGIA

MAJ. GEN. THOMAS M. CARDEN JR. Serving as your 43rd Adjutant General of the Georgia National Guard is an honor and a privilege. One of my most important duties is to inform Governor Brian P. Kemp, our Commander-in-Chief, the citizens of Georgia and our legislators regarding the achievements of the 15,237 men and women of the Georga Department of Defense. The 2019 Georgia Department of Defense Annual Report serves as an important historical record of the organization, its mission, capabilities and values. This report marks 286 years of providing ready and capable units to the Governor of Georgia and President of the United States. As in previous years, members of the Army, Air National Guard and State Defense Force stood watch on freedom’s frontier. On the orders of Governor Kemp and in coordination with the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, we deployed more than 1,300 personnel prepared to meet the needs of Georgia’s citizens as Hurricane Dorian threatened our coast. On guard at home, our 170th Cyber Protection Team continued to demonstrate its value and relevance by assisting government agencies at all echelons. Blending domestic and international

affairs, our State Partnership with the Country of Georgia marked 25 years of success in October. We participated in numerous planning meetings and readiness exercises culminating with Exercise Agile Spirit held in the Country of Georgia. In addition, our partnership with the Argentine Republic entered its third year. This partnership remains strong and presents developing opportunities for mutual training, increased readiness and more stability in South America. The Georgia National Guard is a globally engaged organization. We continue to deploy around the world wherever and whenever needed in support of our Combatant Commands. In the past five years alone, Georgia Guardsmen have deployed to more than 70 countries on all seven continents. Soldiers of all five brigades and Airmen of both wings of the Georgia National Guard mobilized and returned from overseas assignments in 2019. In October, the second longest deployment in United States Air Force history ended as the Georgia Air National Guard’s 116th Air Control Wing flew their last mission in the E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility. As this report goes to print, the Georgia National Guard has more than 700 members deployed. Since September 11, 2001, Georgia Guardsmen have been deployed continually somewhere around the globe. Today, your Georgia Department of Defense stands more prepared than ever to answer the call of duty. We are embracing the evolving nature of conflict while developing innovative options in both force structure and technology as we stand ready to answer the call of securing our great state and nation. We look forward to a new decade of service with all of its challenges and opportunities. The best is yet to come! Sincerely,

The Adjutant General of Georgia Maj. Gen. Thomas M. Carden Jr.

Brig. Gen. Randall Simmons Jr. Assistant Adjutant General - Army With more than 11,000 Citizen Soldiers training in hometown armories and readiness centers across the state, Georgia’s Army National Guard is the eighth largest in the nation. Comprised of combat, combat support and combat service support units, the mission of the Ga. ARNG is to provide ready, resilient and relevant forces to the governor and combatant commanders in order to support unified land operations and to render assistance to the citizens of Georgia during emergency operations. The Ga. ARNG is organized into five major subordinate commands: the 48th Infantry Brigade Combat Team in Macon, the 648th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade at Fort Benning, the 78th Troop Command, the 201st Regional Support Group / Region 4 Homeland Response Force, and the 78th Aviation Troop Command at the Clay National Guard Center in Marietta. Soldiers of all five Georgia Army National Guard brigades were deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan and Europe in 2019. The 48th IBCT mobilized to Afghanistan at the start of the year and completed its deployment in support of Operation Freedom’s Sentinel and

NATO Operation Resolute Support. It was the 48th’s fourth overseas combat deployment since September 11, 2001. The 201st Regional Support Group returned from its successful mission to Iraq in April 2019 and the 161st Military History Detachment completed a unique mission in Europe where they compiled the history of Operation Atlantic Resolve. Georgia aviators of the Marietta-based 171st Aviation Regiment mobilized to Kosovo in May. Soldiers of the 165th Quartermaster Company, 3rd Infantry Division Main Command Post Operational Detachment and 248th Medical Company also began overseas operations in 2019. 2019 proved a busy training year with the 170th Military Police Battalion supporting exercise Agile Spirit in the country of Georgia in July. Engineers of the Augusta-based 878th Engineer Battalion lent their expertise to demolish unused buildings at Fort Benning to carry on a long tradition of support to active installations in Georgia. The 1st Battalion, 54th Security Forces Assistance Brigade, conducted its first collective training event since the unit was organized in September 2018. The Elberton-based 1st Battalion, 214th Field Artillery, conducted fires exercises at Fort Riley, Kan. while the 348th Brigade Support Battalion and 1160th Transportation Company supported training rotations at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, La. Throughout the year, the Ga. ARNG continued to prepare for the new Army Combat Fitness Test by certifying graders and fielding equipment in preparation for the October 2020 implementation of the ACFT. The Georgia Army National Guard stood ready to assist Georgia’s citizens with the approach of Hurricane Dorian in September. Georgia National Guard units staged personnel and equipment in preparation for relief missions as in years previous with Hurricanes Irene, Matthew and Michael. In July, The Georgia Army National Guard

Command Sgt. Maj. Jeffrey Logan State Command Sergeant Major welcomed Command Sgt. Maj. Jeff Logan as the tenth State Command Sgt. Major of the Ga. ARNG. We welcomed new leadership for the Georgia Garrison Training Center, 201st Regional Support Group, Medical Command, and 122nd Regional Training Institute. In December, the Ga. ARNG observed the change of command for the 48th IBCT in which Col. Matthew Smith relinquished command to Col. Anthony Fournier following a successful overseas command tour. In 2019, we bid farewell to the 190th Military Police Company whose lineage will carry on in the 170th Military Police Battalion. As 2019 gives way to a new year, the Ga. ARNG will continue to remain an agile and adaptive force capable of serving the Governor of Georgia and combat commanders in new and emerging missions across the globe and at home. In 2020, Georgia Guardsmen from all five brigades will mobilize in support of operations across the globe. Volunteers from the 48th IBCT will continue to support multiagency operations along our nation’s southwest border while engineer, military intelligence, chaplain, and aviation units will lend their expertise to overseas efforts.

Brig. Gen. Thomas Grabowski Assistant Adjutant General - Air The Georgia Air National Guard successfully executed both the state and federal missions by employing toptier Airmen from two wings and six geographically separated units to fulfill global U.S. Air Force tasked missions and to lessen effects of state natural disasters. The Airmen readied specialized capabilities such as route clearing teams and mobile communications terminals and prepared Airmen to distribute food and water in a weather-related emergency. We simultaneously employed forces and aircraft worldwide for the Department of Defense. In total, over 600 Airmen assisted with stateside missions and overseas deployments. Forty-four medical and communications Airmen from the 116th Air Control Wing served on a disaster preparedness team in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security as part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency exercise

called Shaken Fury. Our Airmen worked alongside more than 200 Georgia Army Guard Soldiers on the CBRNE Enhanced Response Force Package, to help local authorities support the community during disasters. The 116th ACW deployed JSTARS’ battle management, command and control, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities to U.S. Combatant Commands this year. For the first time since November 2001, the E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft, operated by the 116th ACW, pulled out of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). To date, our team has flown nearly 11,000 sorties, more than 125,000 combat flying hours in support of nearly every CENTCOM operation including Enduring Freedom, Iraqi Freedom, Freedom’s Sentinel, and Inherent Resolve. The 165th Airlift Wing (AW) based in Savannah, flies the C-130 aircraft that can operate from rough dirt strips and is used as transport for air dropping troops and equipment into hostile and austere locations. Since 2001, the wing has participated in 17 major deployments and received 12 U.S. Air Force Outstanding Unit Awards. Airmen from all six squadrons in the 165th AW supported operations Inherent Resolve, Freedom’s Sentinel and Spartan Shield. Tactical Air Control Party Airmen from the 165th Air Support Operations Squadron served at multiple locations in U.S.CENTCOM throughout the year. These incredible Airmen enabled critical air support in a battle to gain back three districts from enemy forces in Afghanistan. These Airmen also participated in multiple exercises to

Later this year, the 165th AW medical team participated in Agile Spirit, a multinational exercise in the Country of Georgia. The operations and maintenance groups also deployed to the Country of Georgia and to the country of Argentina, in support of our State Partnership Program. The Georgia ANG continues to selflessly serve with integrity and excellence. Our dualstatus nature, with responsibilities to the state and federal government, makes our mission unique and provides the flexibility for both a local and global response. Looking forward, Airmen stand ready to employ new missions and technologies as necessary to achieve both federal and state leadership vision.Brig. Gen. Grabowski says, “It is my honor to serve alongside our nation’s best, ready and relevant Citizen Airmen!”

destruction of enemy forces. In addition, the 116th ACW has many capabilities ready to support domestic operations in the event of manmade or natural disasters, to include route clearing, medical response, and security forces. The 116th ACW heritage can be traced to Mitchell Field, New York, where it was formed on September 28, 1942 as the 116th Bomb Wing. It was moved to the Georgia National Guard in 1946 where it has been assigned several missions through the years. On October 1, 2002, the 116th ACW stood up as the first organization in the U.S. Air Force to activate under the Total Force Initiative as America’s first ‘Total Force’ wing. Since 9/11, Joint STARS personnel have been continuously deployed around the world achieving more than 125,000 combat flying hours. In 2019, nearly 300 airmen from the 116th ACW deployed to provide combat airpower to six combatant commanders in support of operations around the globe. The 116th ACW also provided domestic operations support after two hurricanes struck the southeastern U.S. by providing ground support route clearing teams, security personnel, and a disaster relief mobile kitchen to feed victims in need, in addition to flying missions to provide command and control over affected areas.

Chief Master Sgt. Michael Bugay Command Chief Master Sergeant with premier Command and Control, Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance capability as well as continuing to support the citizens of our state and country with domestic operations. In fiscal year 2020, the 116th ACW has been tasked to deploy while simultaneously providing support for several large force exercises in Combatant Commands around the world, meeting the intent of the National Defense Authorization Act. This constant cycle of training and deployment keeps 116th ACW airmen proficient and highly skilled to perform wartime and domestic missions.

AIR DOMINANCE CENTER T h e A i r D om i n a n c e C e nt e r (ADC), one of four Air National Guard combat readiness training centers, continues to draw thousands annually to its vast, fully instrumented airspace and support facilities. A cost-effective approach to combat readiness, the ADC provides visiting units with bed-down of personnel by providing lodging and dining for up to eight hundred personnel. The primary customers of the ADC are the two dozen Air National Guard combat aviation wings from across the country that employ the F-16, F-15, and F-22 fighter aircraft. They are drawn to Savannah to take advantage of airspace equipped with the latest tracking technologies, a large ramp that can host three dozen aircraft, and the facilities and equipment that allow them to sustain the air battle. When not playing host to aviation units from across the country, the ADC supports customers seeking world class

conferencing capabilities. The USAF’s Expeditionary Cyber Training Center, located at the ADC, continues fulltime production of student graduates in courses and operational application to Airmen from across the globe tasked

Defense Support To Civil Authorities

This year, the Georgia Department of Defense’s domestic operations supported the state with the deployment of over 1,400 Soldiers and Airmen to Southeast Georgia in advance of Hurricane Dorian. Response teams were trained, ready and prepared to support GEMA points of distribution, provide law enforcement assistance to local agencies, provide damage surveys, conduct commodity distribution, and perform debris removal as they had in previous years. One military police platoon provided law enforcement assistance to the Glynn County Police Department. The Georgia DoD’s Cyber Protection Team (CPT) responded to three ransomware attacks against Georgia state government computer networks. Cyber Protection Team assistance was instrumental in securing the networks which facilitated the rapid return to normalcy for those agencies. Responses like this highlight the importance of DoD’s emphasis on expanding military cyber capabilities as a new digital battlefield emerges. As a full-time organization, the 4th Civil Support Team (CST) regularly conducts law enforcement support missions each week. In 2019, the 4th CST provided subject matter expertise in chemical, biological, radiological,

and experience from the exercise. The Georgia DoD’s Domestic Operations partners with GEMA for their annual hurricane exercise, winter exercise, and continuity of operations exercise just as they would in a realworld response to those events. These exercises prepare numerous state agencies to respond to emergencies in an effective, coordinated, and synchronized manner to protect life and property for Georgia citizens. Georgia DoD elements also provide support to the Georgia Technology Authority for their annual Cyber Dawg Exercise which is designed to simulate an attack on state government computer networks. Additionally, the Joint Staff participated in scores of interagency coordination meetings, working groups, and exercise planning meetings. Topics of discussion included pandemic planning, nuclear incidents, cyberattacks, terrorism, and infrastructure security. All of the above interagency training and planning events develop relationships with other organizations during steady-state operations so that responders are familiar with one another well in advance of a crisis. This interoperability is crucial to mission success for everyone involved.

54th Security Forces Assistance Battalion

The 1st Battalion, 54th Security Forces Assistance Brigade is based in Fort Benning, Georgia and consists of a Headquarters Company and Companies A, B and C. The mission of the SFAB is to advise and assist host nations in the defense against external threats. This mission had previously fallen to Infantry Brigade Combat Teams, such as Georgia’s 48th IBCT, which trained and mentored Afghan Army, border patrol, and police forces during their 20092010 deployment. The U.S. Army recognized that the mentoring mission required heavy investment of IBCT leadership and, in February 2018, the 1st Security Force Assistance Brigade became operational at Fort Benning, Ga. Since that time, four additional SFABs have been organized in the active Army and one, the 54th SFAB, is being organized from National Guard states including Georgia. Each SFAB contains approximately 800 Soldiers. The SFAB structure reflects the changing face of military operations in the 21st Century as the U.S. Army

invests in establishing partner capacity among assisted states. The SFAB thus is a multiplier of force capability providing key partnership capability with a reduced footprint and allowing IBCTs to focus and train for potential threats posed by adversaries. So far, the SFABs have only been deployed to Afghanistan but the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff has expressed the intent for SFABs to be allocated to U.S. Combat Commands in Africa, Europe and South America to provide increased partnership capability to diverse regions of the globe. The 54th SFAB is comprised of National Guard Soldiers from Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Texas. Each SFAB battalion is commanded by a lieutenant colonel and consists of a headquarters company and three additional companies each commanded by a major. Each company in turn consists of multiple teams commanded by captains. Within each team structure are noncommissioned officers skilled in their areas of expertise, which range from combat

arms to medical, signal, logistics, mechanical, and intelligence fields. The 1st Battalion 54th SFAB, is assigned to the Georgia ARNG’s 648th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade based at Fort Benning. The Headquarters Company maintains the lineage and honors of Company H, 121st Infantry Regiment, which completed several overseas deployments to Iraq and Kosovo. Company B perpetuates the long history of the Columbus-based 82nd Maintenance Unit which originated in 1955 as Company E, 560th Armored Engineer Battalion, an element of the 48th Armor Division. Companies C and D are new companies in the Ga. ARNG structure and are being comprised of volunteers from across the Ga. ARNG. To be accepted into the 1-54th SFAB, a Soldier must be an expert in their military occupational specialty and pass a rigorous selection process at Fort Bragg. Trainees may receive additional language training, culture training, foreign weapons training, and medical training.


The 4th WMD-CST, in conjunction with numerous federal, state and local interagency partners, worked diligently to help reduce WMD threat vulnerabilities in the state of Georgia. In FY19 the team was active across the entire state and Homeland Response Force Region IV, providing field testing and training to partner agencies, collaboration with local authorities in the Plant Farley exercise, knowledge and expertise to the health department and Georgia Public Health Labs (GPHL), and hazard sweep teams for national special security events. Additionally they have an ongoing mission to support the U.S. Department of State Diplomatic Security Service by screening mail for U.S. embassies overseas in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and GPHL. U.S. Customs and Border Patrol has also requested CST assistance on multiple occasions at Hartsfield International Airport and the Port of Savannah. Subject matter expert support was provided for numerous large scale public events considered to have a high target value based upon threat levels, critical infrastructure,

or attendance levels. These events included the 2019 PGA Masters Tournament, Super Bowl LIII, and the Major League Soccer Cup. During these events, the 4th WMDCST partnered with over 30 different local, state, and federal agencies. The team provided support to the gubernatorial inauguration, the Peachtree Road Race and at NASCAR weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway. They also supported the SEC Championship, the ChickFil-A Bowl, the Atlanta Falcons, Atlanta United, and Georgia Tech. Since FY 2016, the team has provided CBRN response coverage for Operation Shrimp-N-Grits, which is a United States Coast Guard operation partnered with more than 50 different agencies. The CST’s primary goal is to build upon the interagency relationships established throughout the existence of the 4th WMD-CST. The 4th WMD-CST stands ready to deploy 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to assist the State of Georgia and other Federal Emergency Management Agency - Region IV states.

4th Civil Support Team

The 4th Weapons of Mass Destruction-Civil Support Team (WMD-CST) is a full-time National Guard unit, comprised of 22 Army and Air Force Active Guard Reserve (AGR) personnel, that provides support to civil authorities at domestic chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incident sites by offering hazard identification and assessments. They advise civil authorities and facilitate the arrival of follow-on military forces during emergencies and incidents of WMD terrorism, intentional/unintentional release of CBRN materials, and natural or man-made disasters that result in, or could result in, catastrophic loss of life or property. The 4th WMD-CST complements and enhances, but does not duplicate, state CBRN response capabilities. The 4th WMD-CST was one of the first ten WMD-CSTs and was originally established and validated by the U.S. Department of Defense in October 2001. The 4th WMD-CST is extremely active in the community, consistently ranking in the “Top 10 Most Active Teams in the Nation.” Fiscal year 2019 was no different.

Counterdrug Task Force

The Georgia National Guard Counterdrug Task Force is led by Lt. Col. James L. McNair III, and his senior enlisted leader, Senior Master Sgt James C. Miller. The Georgia National Guard Counterdrug Task Force (CDTF) mission is to assist in the reduction of the supply and demand for illegal drugs by fostering relationships and partnering with local, state and federal law enforcement agencies (LEA), and community based organizations. The CDTF provides these agencies and organizations a full range of operational support services in the detection, interdiction, disruption, and curtailment of drug trafficking activities and transnational criminal organizations through the application of unique military skills, resources, and capabilities. Several unique military abilities the CDTF provides includes narcotic surveillance, seizure operations, marijuana eradication, information analysis, pattern of life analysis, criminal case support

analysis, and aerial reconnaissance. The CDTF is comprised of 24 members from the Georgia Army National Guard and Georgia Air National Guard. These Soldiers and Airmen are committed to providing professional and cost-effective enduring support to 18 law enforcement agencies (12 local, 2 State, 4 Federal) and to other LEAs upon request. They remain a constant ambassador of the Georgia National Guard and coordinate for law enforcement needs related to drug law enforcement and provide requested training courses. During the fiscal year 2019, the CDTF facilitated five training courses to a multitude of law enforcement agencies saving them more than $150,000. In total, CDTF provided training to 92 different agencies and 198 law enforcement officers. This training is provided at no cost to law enforcement agencies and no cost to the Georgia taxpayers thanks to CDTF’s participation in the Federal Asset Forfeiture Programs.

34 | Georgia Department of Defense

The CDTF assisted in the seizure of $17,494,442, consisting of $16,744,030 worth of drugs, $567,884 in currency, and $230,728 in property. These cases resulted in the discovery of 299 weapons (valued at $77,374), which were either stolen, in the possession of felons, or being used during the commission of felonies within the State of Georgia. The support provided by the Georgia National Guard Counterdrug Task Force assisted in building cases that directly led to the arrest of 898 suspects during fiscal year 2019. The National Guard Bureau measures effectiveness of the program and determines each programs budget based on the Threat Based Resource Model. Georgia continues to be recognized as one of the most successful National Guard Counterdrug Programs in the country despite a reduction in funding.


protection team can be deployed worldwide by the DoD or used locally at state level to provide cyber protection on government networks. The 170th CPT mobilized in 2017 in support of three primary DoD missions, which included defending DoD networks, systems and systems information; defending the U.S. homeland and U.S. national interests against cyberattacks of significant consequence; and providing cyber support to military operational and contingency plans. Since returning in 2018, the CPT has provided assistance and expertise to national and state agencies. Cyber security is a rapidly growing field in the military and is quickly becoming a top priority to combat military and industrial espionage as well as cybercrimes,

including alleged election meddling by foreign governments. National Guard cyber experts from several states have recently been called upon to assist local authorities strengthen voter databases and networked equipment used in elections. The DoD recognizes that America is a target and identifies that threats exist from terrorists seeking to attack U.S. citizens through malicious cyber activity against personal, commercial, or government infrastructure or by subverting political and information networks. As new threats to commercial and military uses of space emerge, cyber security teams continue to adapt to challenges and vulnerabilities that include increased digital connectivity in all aspects of business, government, and military life.

Cyber protection team

The Georgia Army National Guard’s operational partnerships with other government agencies, as well as other private and public civilian organizations, are critical to improving our ability to assist the governor of Georgia with the protection of our communities and infrastructure. Based on the Department of Defense’s strategy to expand military cyber capabilities and doctrine and secure networks and halt malicious cyber activity at its source, Georgia’s cyber operations have become increasingly relevant to an expanding multi-domain battlefield. The Ga. Army National Guard’s 170th Cyber Protection Team (CPT) was one of the first three CPTs established by the National Guard in 2015 for such purposes. A cyber

State Partnership Program

The State of Georgia celebrated the historic 25th anniversary of our partnership with the Country of Georgia this year and continued to build the relationship with our second state partner, Argentina, which was established in November 2016. In 2019, the State Partnership Program (SPP) saw numerous events conducted with both partner nations. State of Georgia representatives conducted 59 different events, meetings, exercises and bilateral discussions with Georgia (48 events) and Argentina (11 events), continually strengthening our partner nations’ bilateral ties with the United States. The partnership with Argentina resulted in training with the f i r s t a i r c r a f t f r o m t h e G e o rg i a Air National Guard traveling to Argentina. A C-130 and crew from the 165th Airlift Wing traveled to Buenos Aires for a ceremony commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Argentine Air Force receiving C-130s. Maj. Gen. Joe Jarrard and Brig. Gen. Randall Simmons also attended the ceremony and continued to build our relationship with Argentina meeting with key

leaders from the Argentine Air Force and Army. The State Partnership Program with Argentina this year focused on humanitarian assistance and disaster response, maintenance and medical events, which included aeromedical evacuation and trauma patient care. The highlight of our partnership with Argentina this year was the two week Volant Plata C-130 bilateral e n g a g e m e n t . Tw o C - 1 3 0 s a n d crews from the 165th Air Lift Wing and a rigging team from the 165th Quartermaster Company performed air drops alongside C-130s from the Argentine Air Force, practicing day and night disaster relief operations. The State Partnership Program in the Country of Georgia focused on several key areas in the Georgian Defense Forces (GDF), including sustainment, procurement and logistics, civil military emergency preparedness, family readiness, cyber security, and reserve component development. New areas of cooperation in 2019 were recruiting and retention, physical security, and stockpile management. We will start working with the GDF on junior noncomissioned officer development

early in 2020. In July and August 2019, 160 Ga. ARNG Soldiers, including the U.S. exercise co-director, and 45 Ga. ARNG vehicles mobilized and deployed to Tbilisi, capital of the country of Georgia, to participate in the U.S. European Command (EUCOM) Exercise Agile Spirit 19. Approximately 3,300 military personnel from 14 allied and partner nations took part in this, the fifth iteration of the exercise. Agile Spirit 19 was a Georgian-U.S. multinational training exercise for U.S., coalition and partner forces to focus on readiness and interoperability in direct support of EUCOM first line of effort – deter Russia. The GDF continued to deploy nearly 800 Soldiers in support of the Resolute Support Mission (RS), co-deploying with the U.S. Marine Corps to Afghanistan. Georgia remains the number one per capita contributor to RS. The State of Georgia is committed to working with Georgian Armed Forces to enhance their readiness and capability to defend their homeland, as well as send troops on expeditionary deployments.


The Georgia Department of Defense public affairs program merges the joint efforts of federal and state employees, Georgia Army and Air National Guard personnel, and State Defense Force volunteers.

2019 Annual Report | 41


HISTORICAL ROOTS In 1919, Georgia Army National Guard units returned home following World War I and occupation duty in Germany. One hundred years later, Georgia’s Citizen Soldiers of the 48th Infantry Brigade Combat Team returned home from combat operations in Afghanistan. While the Georgia National Guard is entering its second century of overseas service, its history is much older. For nearly three centuries, Georgia’s citizens have volunteered to leave home and family to protect their fellow citizens. The antecedent elements of the Georgia National Guard were established by Lord James Oglethorpe upon his arrival in Savannah in 1733. Oglethorpe was well acquainted with the utility of the Citizen-Soldier, and upon arriving in the new colony moved swiftly to establish and train the Georgia Militia. Oglethorpe’s actions would prove prescient. In 1742, a Spanish force of more than 2,000 troops threatened St. Simons Island. Among the units Oglethorpe had at his disposal was a troop of mounted rangers, a forerunner of the Georgia Hussars, whose lineage and honors are maintained today by the Georgia Army National Guard’s 1st Battalion, 118th Field Artillery Regiment. On July 7, 1742, the rangers spotted Spanish troops near Gully Hole Creek. Oglethorpe personally led an assault that blunted the Spanish advance. In response, the Spanish landed 200 elite grenadiers who marched inland in a column formation. Concealed by trees,

Oglethorpe’s small force routed the numerically superior Spanish at Bloody Marsh. The Spanish withdrew from St. Simons and would not again seriously contend for Georgian soil. Since the first rattle of musket fire at Gully Hole Creek, Georgia Guardsmen have served their state and nation in conflicts and in times of emergency. Guard units such as the Chatham Artillery of Savannah and the Liberty Independent Troop of Hinesville were formed before the American Revolution, served through that conflict, and continue in service today. Georgia artillerymen served their cannons during the War of 1812 and Macon infantry served in the Seminole Wars. Georgians fell at the Alamo and crossed Mexico with Zachary Taylor. During the great shattering of the American Civil War, more than 130,000 Georgians served, and more than 18,000 paid the ultimate sacrifice. Georgia Guardsmen mobilized for the Spanish American War and served on the Mexican Border in 1916. More than sixty Georgia Guard companies were deployed to Europe during World War I. Georgia Guardsmen served the European Theater of World War II. Field artillery units from Savannah and infantry units from across the state went ashore at Omaha Beach and soldiered east across France and entered Germany, achieving victory, but at a terrible price. The casualty list for the 121st Infantry Regiment alone is 70 pages long. Georgia Guardsmen also served in the Pacific Theater. Field artillery and anti-aircraft units protected the skies

over Allied bases in New Zealand and Papua New Guinea and advanced to Guadalcanal where their guns stood watch over Henderson Field. Georgia Guardsmen made the beach assault at Makin Island with the 193rd Tank Battalion and engaged in the bloody conflict for Okinawa. By 1945, More than 70 units of the Georgia Army National Guard had been called to serve in World War II. During the Korean War, the 108th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Brigade was activated to protect the skies over American cities in anticipation of possible war escalation. Georgia Air National Guardsmen of the 116th Fighter Wing deployed to Japan and flew missions in the skies over Korea. During the Vietnam War, Georgia Air National Guardsmen delivered supplies to Vietnam in their C-97 cargo planes. Nearly 6,000 Georgia Guardsmen were mobilized for Desert Shield in 1990. During Desert Storm, the 138th Medical Company cared for American and Iraqi patients while the 265th Engineer Group commanded the largest engineer force in the XVIII Airborne Corps, constructing more than 800 miles of road. More than 21,000 Georgia Army National Guard Soldiers have served in the Global War on Terror. More than 2,500 are currently deployed. The spirit of service and courage that defended Georgia in the 18th century is carried on by today’s generation of Georgia Guardsmen.

The Boar’s Head

The boar’s head on the wreath depicted in the patch worn by Georgia National Guardsmen is an adaptation of the crest authorized by the National Guard for the state of Georgia, approved March 20, 1922. The wild boar symbolizes courage and ferocity. The boar’s head, which stems from the coat of arms of James Oglethorpe – founder of the Colony of Georgia – is also the emblem of hospitality. The red, white and blue colors are the official colors of Georgia.
