Michigan National Guard troops remain on extended deployment to protect the nation’s capital. They may be seeing action today. It’s anyone’s guess. There’s been a lot of talk about an attempted Capitol building incursion today. Many troops in Michigan’s National Guard contingent in Washington are Military Police. They’re well equipped to handle an attempt to break into the grounds or even the Capitol building. But even if they’re called to the front line, some Michigan Guard troops may not be able to respond. Some have become sick over the past couple of weeks. They’ve been given bad food.
