Leadership realizes the importance of

00:18.401 --> 00:21.040
educating conference attendees as well

00:21.040 --> 00:23.540
as other texas . National Guard members

00:23.550 --> 00:25.680
of the vital roles The task force

00:25.680 --> 00:27.850
performs . The point of being here in

00:27.850 --> 00:30.560
in God is a lot of the guard doesn't

00:30.560 --> 00:33.390
know what we do we carry both are Green

00:33.390 --> 00:35.334
Mission , our Army mission and the

00:35.334 --> 00:38.120
civilians they don't understand . So in

00:38.120 --> 00:40.231
order to get to that point we need to

00:40.231 --> 00:42.430
put out the world . The JtF 71 which

00:42.430 --> 00:45.030
consists of army and Air Guard units

00:45.040 --> 00:48.040
respond to natural disasters such as

00:48.040 --> 00:50.750
chemical , biological , radiological ,

00:50.760 --> 00:53.590
nuclear and explosive emergencies . The

00:53.590 --> 00:55.740
task force quickly takes action by

00:55.740 --> 00:57.629
providing search and extraction ,

00:57.629 --> 01:00.030
decontamination and medical teams to

01:00.030 --> 01:02.540
the incident site . It works closely

01:02.550 --> 01:04.328
with civil authorities in these

01:04.328 --> 01:06.439
homeland based missions were National

01:06.439 --> 01:08.606
Guard . So we need to take care of our

01:08.606 --> 01:10.772
home also , not just federal . So it's

01:10.772 --> 01:12.439
very important that everybody

01:12.439 --> 01:14.661
understands that piece . For 100 mobile
