What do you think?



When you voluntarily raised your right hand and took the oath of enlistment to support and defend the Constitution of the United States, against enemies foreign and domestic -- you purposely gave up a piece of yourself. You were remolded and given a new set of core values, which are integrity first, service before self and excellence in all we do. Watch this video to see why Air Force senior leaders think the core values matter.]]> https://www.193sow.org/2014/04/03/our-core-values-matterwhat-do-you-think/feed/ 0 2087 https://www.193sow.org/2014/03/28/i-know-there-are-some-out-there-that-remember-this-and-might-have-been-working-a/ https://www.193sow.org/2014/03/28/i-know-there-are-some-out-there-that-remember-this-and-might-have-been-working-a/#respond Fri, 28 Mar 2014 23:08:00 +0000 http://www.193sow.org/2014/03/28/i-know-there-are-some-out-there-that-remember-this-and-might-have-been-working-a/

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY: Today marks the 35th anniversary of the worst commercial nuclear accident in U.S. history. As a result of the partial meltdown at Three Mile Island’s Unit 2 reactor in the morning hours of March 28, 1979, the Pennsylvania #NationalGuard saw the call up of assets related to the accident. Army National Guard assets were called in and placed on standby to support civil authorities if evacuations were required and numerous task force plans were developed by National Guard personnel in conjunction with civilian authorities. The Pennsylvania Air National Guard's proximity to Three Mile Island played a big factor in the @[200923618834:274:193rd Special Operations Wing]'s contributions to deal with the crisis. The 193rd's base became a command post for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. President Jimmy Carter arrived on April 1, 1979, to assess the situation at the base and was briefed on base. Countless supplies to include weather equipment, chemicals, potassium iodide, robots and nearly 100,000 pounds of lead bricks were offloaded by 193rd loadmasters. The 193rd also provided motor pool support for personnel and supplies and 193rd aircraft transported samples from the reactor to test facilities across the country. The 193rd's support of activities related to the accident lasted more than a month after the partial meltdown occurred. Additional info on the particulars of the accident is available via the Nuclear Regulatory Commission @ http://j.mp/1979TMI. #Military]]> https://www.193sow.org/2014/03/28/i-know-there-are-some-out-there-that-remember-this-and-might-have-been-working-a/feed/ 0 2083 https://www.193sow.org/2014/03/12/happy-birthday-to-the-pennsylvania-national-guard039s-28th-infantry-division-rol/ https://www.193sow.org/2014/03/12/happy-birthday-to-the-pennsylvania-national-guard039s-28th-infantry-division-rol/#respond Wed, 12 Mar 2014 17:03:00 +0000 http://www.193sow.org/2014/03/12/happy-birthday-to-the-pennsylvania-national-guard039s-28th-infantry-division-rol/
