Xpost Many people are not familiar with their state's Reserve, Auxiliary & Special Police Officers.

They can learn more by first visiting http://www.reservepolice.org/Links.htm and clicking on their state to learn about its volunteer forces.

Learn about part of your state's unorganized militia at the State Guard Association of the United States http://www.sgaus.org/

Even for sandbagging for flood control. Something. Doesn't have to be military related.

Shit, I'll do search and rescue or knock door to door for wildfire evacuations. All kinds of shit it can be used for.
