I read some National Guard are getting deployed to Iraq.

@pdockal yeah i thought it sounded strange too. I thought the national guard stayed in the US

@Penny At the end of the day, they go where they are told.

@Penny

Unfortunately no
They've been deployed onto foreign soil allot

@Penny NO, they have been in every conflict and world war.

@GeistInTheMachine They’re not being federalized are they?

The [i]Coast Guard[/i] should stay on U.S. soil? 🤨@pdockal

@AbbySvenz
yes it should guard the USA coast
the army, navy, marines, air force are for using in conflicts outside USA
why is that so hard to fathom ?????

Think about what was said: The [i]Coast Guard[/i] should stay on American [i]soil[/i].

Boats. Water, not land.@pdockal

@AbbySvenz

I still don't see why your criticzing my post

Because boats on American soil are sort of in the wrong place. @pdockal

@AbbySvenz

Get over it already
You know what was meant

That you don’t know how boats work 👍@pdockal

@AbbySvenz

Really

@AbbySvenz you're the embodiment of every blonde joke ever

I’m not the one insisting the Coast Guard needs to stay on good ol’ American soil @SW-User

@AbbySvenz

Your stirring up trouble because you dislike the wording and can't understand the meaning behind the post
