[QUOTE="JEVapa, post: 4049925, member: 41176"] Yes, because unless they are activated federally (National Emergency, Deployment overseas, etc), the Governor is the CINC for his state's troops. This applies to state/local militias and National Guard; the NG belongs to the state and the governor is the Commander in Chief, contrary to what the TV says. The Reserves are federal and states have no say so over the Reserves. The governors can coordinate with each other and support each as they see fit (just like other nations do). States, regardless of the poor civics taught in school, are still considered sovereign and the United States is a federation of these sovereign states...otherwise they'd be provinces like other unfree countries have, Canada, Australia, Britain, China, Thailand, etc. Don't confuse state/local militias with Big Bubby's 134th red dirt militia with all 10 members....they're just doing that for likes on tik tok and whatnot.
