    Oh hell yes they are.

    The National Guard is still walking around DC, doing nothing.

        I am not sure if your comment is serious or not, but if you are in the National Guard, that would be a damn good deployment to get.

        Unlike Operation Lone Star where you are sitting out in the Texas desert going insane and being fucked out of benefits, a DC tour is just waddling around Georgetown, The National Mall while staying in apartments and hotels and as it is a federal deployment you get the pay and retirement benefits.

        I am sure you would have some downtime to see the sights, Trump and MAGA America are fucking up the Smithsonian, but there are other great sights to see.

          I was kind of alluding to like cops getting put on desk duty, where there is no action or anything fun just paperwork.
