Homeland security or military occupation by our own forces? I heard from someone that military orders have been mailed this week calling up reserves. August 22, 2002 FORT DODGE (AP) - The Iowa Army National Guard's 1st Battalion, 194th Field Artillery, will be ordered to federal active duty, the Department of Defense and the National Guard Bureau in Washington, D.C., have announced. The battalion, headquartered in Fort Dodge, will deploy to locations within the United States for homeland security missions as part of Operation Noble Eagle II, Col. Robert King, public affairs officer for the Iowa National Guard, said Wednesday in a news release. The battalion includes units in Algona, Estherville, Spencer and Storm Lake. Duty locations are not being announced. Approximately 350 soldiers are affected, 71 of them from the Algona sub unit, King said. The soldiers will report to their local armories Saturday to begin home station processing at their unit armories and Camp Dodge in preparation for their deployment and movement to their duty locations. This will include completing administrative functions and loading their equipment for movement. The battalion will enter into federal active duty Sept. 3, King said.
