    Approximately 180 Technicians will lose their full time jobs statewide. AGRs will get moved throughout the state. I do not know what will happen with the hundreds of m-day soldier?s associated with the 1-211th ARB in Utah. I don't think it is well known how many state support missions the apaches fly and how involved we are with the community. We recently engaged in the vigilant guard exercise, where we had a "notional" 7.5 earthquake, which is the next projected possible disaster that we could actually have to deal with. The apaches provided search and rescue, video of surveillanced areas, transported organs and many other really cool things! That was just this exercise, we engage in multiple exercises every year. I personally worked flight OPS when we did a real search and rescue for a man missing in the mountains. Not to mention, if the worst of the worst were to happen, and we had war on our soil.. I would sure feel safer with the big guns up in the sky!!!

    The Army is made up of over half our national guard when they are deployed for we overseas. The Army does not need these Apaches....the guard does.
