Some 120,000 members of the National Guard have responded this year to natural disasters — floods in Michigan, wildfires in Kansas and tornadoes in Tennessee, just to name a few — and have participated in global military operations and responded to civil disturbances and to COVID-19, the chief of the National Guard Bureau said. "It has been a crazy year, and it's just early July," Air Force Gen. Joseph L. Lengyel said during a Brookings Institution webcast titled "The Force America Needs: Lessons of 2020 and the Future of the National Guard."
