Order of Battle for National Guard

The current strength of the National Guard units in Washington DC is 15,000 personnel. That amounts to more than twice as many troops as are in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. 

One of the states providing units to the Washington, DC Führerbunker is Pennsylvania, whose National guard is in possession of the US National Guard's only Stryker brigade, the 56th Brigade Combat Team (SBCT). Here is a video of them pulling into a rest stop on their way to Washington, DC. (Note that the vehicles are all armed for combat, including mounting M-2 heavy machine guns.) 


The units (as complete units or at least elements of those units) that I can identify as having been assigned to this mission are listed below:

The entire Washington, DC national guard
