They are exactly comparable situations; these are emergency responses for National Guard Soldiers, and are treated the same. You need a massive push immediately. Regardless of whether it’s a protest or a hurricane, you the citizen want a response fast. In this case SOME citizens and leadership still want a response, whether or not you do. And in their case, yes… it’s an equal emergency in their eye, even if that’s all propaganda or bad faith from your or our POV.
I am not arguing whether they should or shouldn’t be there because XYZ different tier of leadership wants A, B, or C to happen. I am strictly stating that logistically, this is normal. It was normal for J6, it’s normal for any other operation like this. This would be abnormal if it were a long standing mission, like the border security missions.
