This past March 7, the National Guard in South Carolina performed door-to-door ‘wellness checks’ in an state-wide drill entitled Operation Vigilant Guard. The stated purpose was to prep for a Category 4 hurricane disaster.
Overall, around 2,000 military personnel and 5,000 persons from the South Carolina emergency management divisions participated.
This certainly harkens back to Hurricane Katrina disaster, where the National Guard and local law enforcement confiscated guns door-to-door.

Here I will help Don. Time for you people to educate yourself and seek out the truth instead of believing everything any conservative nut job writes. This is 100% made up and it’s obvious. The info is out there so just stop being lazy and do some damn research. You poor excuses for Americans. It’s lazy and outright ignorant to just believe everything you are told. Read, search, and read some more and make educated decisions. Truth and action my……This site should be called lies and laziness.
Do to the sharp increase in 223 ammo for my ar-15s you will no longer have a warning shot hit the tree next to you when you get within 300 yards wich is the perimiters of my shooting range and is cleary marked !!!!
Should change this group from Truth and Action; to Crazy And KKK; just a bunch of whacked racists on here.
Map all the places referenced in this “exercise”, then the place referenced in this story. Now compare the dates. Not a coincidence. http://www.wmbfnews.com/story/28274865/scabies-reported-at-johnsonville-high-school
If you are going to tell about Vigilant Guard, you should have more to say about the entire mission. Doir-to”door activities are only a small part of the overall mission and what you did say is utterly misleading as to what this mission was all about.
How about Door-to-door…
Adrianne… that’s a very reasonable and thoughtful response.. the only thing that I’d say is beware where you get your info… because this site And those similar to it are printing a lot of f**e stories to rile people up.. even this story is doctored up and made to look like something it’s not.
Except, most National Guard soldiers were former Active Duty troops. Alot of the National Guard units have gone overseas and have seen multiple deployments. So, with regards to those Veterans who have served this country but were injured overseas or no longer want to be Active Duty due to personal reasons unbeknownst to us “civilians” and saw the National Guard as another way to continue to serve their country, shouldn’t they be respected as well? Im not saying I agree with the wellness checks, but they are just following orders. Growing up with parents who were Active Duty Air Force and Marine Corps and my father who is now currently serving in Afghanistan with the Nevada National Guard, I can understand the need to follow orders. Whether or not the soldiers agree with the orders given to them.

Thanks Kari.
Forrest at the lowest level of harm, trading two years of low pay service for college not only gives more folks access to education. It’s a good return on investment for the American people.
Please.
