Lyrics:
Beyond the boundries of your city's lights.
Stand the heroes waiting for your cries.
So many times you did not bring this on yourself.
When the moment finally comes, I'll be there to help.
On that day, when you need your brothers and sisters to care. I'll be right here.
Citizen soldiers.
Holding the light of the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered.
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
When there're people crying in the streets
When they're starving for a meal to eat
When they simply need a place to make their beds
Right here underneath my wing you can rest your head
On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care I'll be right here
Citizen soldiers.
Holding the light of the ones that we guide from the dark of despair.
Standing on guard for the ones that we've sheltered.
We'll always be ready because we will always be there.
Hope and pray that you never need me the rest assured, I will not let you down
I walk beside you but you may not see me
The strongest among you may not were a crown
On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care I'll be right here
On that day when you don't have a strenght for the burden you bare I'll be right here
Citizen soldiers holding the light of the ones that we guide from the dark of dispair
Standing on guard for the ones that need shelter
We'll always be ready because we will always be there

Air National Guard - Military Aircraft on Skis - VOA Story
During the Cold War, Greenland was a strategic location for the United States military to track and detect Soviet aircraft and ballistic missiles. The military established radar and tracking sites throughout Greenland's ice sheet. The only way in and out of the remote facilities was by specially equipped aircraft. Since 1975, that mission has belonged to an Air Force unit based in New York state -- the 109th Airlift Wing. A unit that began a now obsolete military mission has found new life in Greenland in the pursuit of science.
The C-130 is a robust military cargo airplane first used by the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War. It is now used by many different militaries around the world, but only the 109th has the distinction of flying to both polar regions.
VECO Polar Resources is contracted by the National Science Foundation to coordinate travel and cargo for the scientists conducting the research.
For the most part, everything does work. The 109th prides itself on its safety record -- it has never lost an aircraft -- and its maintenance record. Ice and snow can easily ground the C-130s. But decades of operating in the difficult conditions have enabled the unit to quickly return the aircraft to service.
While the weather frequently wreaks havoc on tight schedules up on the ice sheet, there is no alternate way to get in and out of the remote camps. The 109th is currently the only organization capable of transporting the large amounts of cargo and people needed to conduct the scientific research.
The 109th Airlift Wing is made up of Air National Guard personnel. Most typically have other full-time jobs, and serve in uniform part-time -- usually about three weeks a year.
The 109th's ongoing support of the National Science Foundation's efforts in Greenland and Antarctica comes at a time of war in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Despite the current strain that combat operations have placed on members of the National Guard, it has so far not affected peacetime operations of the 109th in the polar regions.
In 1999, the 109th made international headlines when Dr. Jerri Nielsen, a physician at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, discovered a cancerous lump in her breast. A ski-equipped C-130 with the 109th attempted a dangerous landing in Antarctica's winter. Despite battling poor visibility and temperatures reaching negative 50 degrees Celsius, the mission was a success. The 109th airlifted Dr. Nielsen to the United States for treatment.

The Army National Guard
A look into what it means to serve in the Army National Guard and what it means to be a Citizen-Soldier.
I like this one because it shows the State-side mission that each and every Guard Member vows to support.
Ever thought about joining the National Guard, but want more information. I'd be happy to talk with you!
I'm working as a Warrant Officer Recruiter, but I know a lot of the stuff that the National Guard can provide to someone who is wanting to enlist. Shoot me an e-mail at jay.gfeller@ng.army.mil or call me at (785) 817-7956!
