Nanny....type in Texas State Guard and you should be referred to a number of Web Sites. My grandad was too old for WWII, but served in the State Guard instead. Carried his 12 guage, supplied his own uniform, and patrolled the
beaches of galveston Island and other coastal points on a number of occasions.
