☆ Air National Guard leaders say proposal to move units to Space Force poses 'existential threat' to US national security

The US Air National Guard rebuke a proposal to shift space mission units to the Space Force. "Our internal survey indicates about 70% of our personnel would retrain or retire rather than join the Space Force," Air Force Col. Michael Griesbaum, commander of the Alaska Air National Guard's 168th Wing, told reporters Friday. Airmen from the Colorado Air National Guard load equipment onto a C-17 Globemaster before departing for temporary duty in Washington, DC. AdvertisementBut Air National Guard leaders have expressed concern, saying it would set a clear precedent for other services to potentially take more resources from the National Guard model. "If LP 480 is successful, it will open the door to a wholesale harvesting of National Guard resources, both from the Air National Guard and the Army National Guard to the regular components."

REUTERS/Ricardo Rojas Acquire Licensing RightsSANTO DOMINGO/OUANAMINTHE, Sept 14 (Reuters) - Hundreds of Haitians returned from the Dominican Republic on Thursday after the Dominican president announced an imminent total border shutdown amid a conflict over the construction of a water channel from a shared river. Harold Estimable, director of the national migration office in Ouanaminthe, said some 250 to 300 Haitians had been arriving daily from the Dominican Republic in "very bad shape." The Dominican Republic, which threatened to shut the border last week, argues construction works off the River Massacre violate a 1929 treaty. The U.S. Embassy, which has called on its citizens to leave Haiti, said on its website that those planning to leave for the Dominican Republic would need to make other arrangements.

☆ The National Guard says it's struggling to hire because workers are being lured in by Wendy's, Amazon, and FedEx instead
  + stars: | 2023-07-06 | by ( Grace Dean | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
The National Guard says it's struggling to hire as big private companies boost pay and benefits. Maj. Marco Irenze said, per a press release by the National Guard Association of the United States last month. Across all private nonfarm jobs, workers in production and nonsupervisory roles earned $28.75 an hour in May on average, per preliminary seasonally-adjusted BLS data. "This is the most challenging recruiting environment the Department of Defense has probably ever faced," Col. Anthony Pasquale, the chief of the Air Guard's recruiting & retention division, said, per the press release. As well as high wages in other industries luring workers away from the military, the pandemic also made it harder for the National Guard to recruit in traditional ways such as at high schools, the National Guard Association said.

[1/2] Police stand guard at the airport after protesters invaded the runway following the ouster of Peruvian President Pedro Castillo, in Ayacucho, Peru December 20, 2022. REUTERS/Angela PonceLIMA, Jan 4 (Reuters) - Protests in Peru over the ousting of former President Pedro Castillo, which left almost two dozen dead in December, resumed on Wednesday with blockades of some highways following a two-week pause. Peru saw a wave of protests last month after the impeachment and arrest of Castillo, which left 22 dead in clashes between demonstrators and the army and another six dead in accidents linked to the blockades. Castillo, who was in power for nearly 17 months, had tried to illegally dissolve Congress and reorganize the judiciary. "I call for peace, calm, and unity to boost the development of the homeland," she said in a speech.
