Gov., DeWine is sending 185 members of the Ohio National Guard to the southwest, later this year, at the request of the federal government. Officials say they will provide non-law enforcement support to U.S. customs agents…as part of the government’s Southwest Border mission. The governor didn’t provide further details about the guard members’ duties. The mission involves security along the Mexican border in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The request for Ohio guard members came from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the National Guard Bureau. They will join 115 of the Ohio Guard’s 1484th Transportation Company, previously deployed to the border. About 3,000 Guard members from several states are involved in the mission.
