Ive said this for years. It’s not just one weekend a month, it can be RIGHT NOW. Most of that is active guard but not all of it.

My mom’s family is from WV so I’ve spent a lot of time there. Will be there for a big family Christmas party in December.
I had a relative who recruited for the WV Guard. This was over a decade ago. He said he could go into some WV small towns and find 3-5 people he could recruit due to testing and records. That’s of everyone in the town not just recruiting age.
