I can tell you this. Many of our National Guard units Nation wide are called up volunteers that have good high paying jobs. By law, they didn't lose thier job, however they did lose thier pay. A freind of mine is a Government Servant (GS - 11) his pay is in the $60,000 yr range, he got called up with his unit for a 1 year activation to defend a local Air Force Base, he is an E-5 with his unit (Staff Sargeant) yearly pay is $25,000. This puts a hardship on the families that have been living in the higher bracket lifestyle. They need all the help they can get. My freind is going to lose his house before this war is over.
