WP : Pentagon readying thousands of Guard ‘reaction forces’ as U.S. mission widensmUp to 23,500 troops across the country are being readied and trained for civil unrest missions in U.S. cities.

The Defense Department’s newly established “quick reaction force” within the National Guard must be trained, equipped with riot-control gear and ready for deployment by Jan. 1, according to internal documents reviewed by The Washington Post. The 200 troops will be drawn from National Guard personnel whose primary focus is responding to disasters like nuclear accidents and terrorist attacks, the documents said.
