National Guard troops deployed to DC grow weary with no end in sight

Of the more than 2,200 National Guard soldiers President Donald Trump deployed to Washington, DC last month, in addition to a wave of federal law enforcement, roughly 1,300 are from out of state. Guardsmen on the DC mission and their relatives who spoke to CNN said they left behind civilian jobs and children to serve – a sacrifice they understood when they enlisted.
And while domestic missions typically have National Guard troops responding to crises like hurricanes or wildfires, in DC, much of their work has involved more mundane tasks – patrolling popular tourist destinations and assisting with “beautification projects” including picking up trash, raking leaves and laying mulch.
