NGAGA: The Georgia Guard member's voice on Capitol Hill

The Minuteman statue stands proudly in front of the 116th Force Support Squadron, Robins Air Force Base, Ga., May 26, 2015. Now as a symbol of the National Guard, minutemen were once members of teams of select men from the American colonial partisan militia during the American Revolutionary War. They provided a highly mobile and rapidly deployed force that allowed the colonies to respond quickly to the threat of war. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Julie Parker/Released)
