5
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:20.960
And I agree with you on the Texas State Guard
6
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:27.559
for the especially the social media aspect, just going through
7
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:32.240
and this is why, you know, I believe the Texas
8
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:37.000
State Guard is the model to follow, especially for public affairs,
9
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:43.079
because there are there's the first Brigade, second Brigade, third Brigade,
10
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:50.799
six Brigade, not including the official Texas State Guard main
11
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:55.799
page on Facebook. So there's one, two, three, four five
12
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:02.759
official pages on Facebook alone for the Texas State Guard.
13
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:06.319
And every time I go there, there's always news and
14
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:10.280
it's training news and it's also mission news, and it's
15
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:17.359
just a wealth of just knowledge and news and experience
16
00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:23.480
and skills and exposure. While there are and I tell
17
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.640
this to other state defense forces. You know, one good
18
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.239
one was the New York Guard. New York Guard had
19
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:35.040
a one page on Facebook. And I did know the
20
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:38.319
PEO for the New York Guard both professionally and personally.
21
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:46.000
We both served together. They removed that mainly get. I
22
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:50.000
got conflicting sources. I got the actual person who told
23
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.680
me who was commanding the public affairs office for the
24
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:59.159
New York Guard saying that we weren't needed anymore. And
25
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:03.480
the the Division of Military Naval Affairs told me is like, well,
26
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:06.480
nobody wants to do the job. And so I was
27
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:11.560
just like, Okay, that's strange because I have the commander
28
00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:13.960
of the PO and his team that says they want
29
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.560
to do the job, but you guys are saying, you
30
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:18.879
know that nobody wants to do the job. That's why
31
00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:21.840
you're you know, you're shutting down the site. So it
32
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:25.879
was very just strange. But going further into that point,
33
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:31.879
I do believe, you know, and Major Shepherd has been
34
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:36.560
incredible with the Georgia State Defense Force. On Facebook literally
35
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:40.000
it's like every one or two days there was something
36
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:43.919
about new training or new mission or you know, a
37
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.360
change of change of command or something that kept that
38
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:52.159
page alive. The more you post, the more the algorithms
39
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:56.680
on Facebook, on YouTube, on all these platforms puts you
40
00:02:56.840 --> 00:03:01.400
in front of others. So you know, if you're posting
41
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:05.280
every day, Texas State Guard has five pages, they're posting
42
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:11.479
often you know people that you know that like military,
43
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.759
and there's a big military community on Facebook. Right, We'll
44
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:18.120
get something that says Texas State Guard does this, and
45
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.639
the first question is what does the Texas State Guard.
46
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.479
They look into it and then they you know, they
47
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:27.080
and if they want to get back in uniform, which
48
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:32.800
many of them do, they join. So I think, honestly
49
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:37.639
it I think every state defense force nationwide, whether you're Vermont,
50
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:43.639
and I'm glad that Vermont is now back on Facebook
51
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:46.960
because they would post like once or twice a year.
52
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:50.960
Now they're posting maybe once or twice monthly. So I'm
53
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:55.759
really I want to acknowledge their efforts that they're doing
54
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:59.360
with their PO, and I believe they got new leadership.
55
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.759
I want to acknowledge that, but they should have I
56
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:08.159
believe every brigade or every every area command should have
57
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:12.680
their own PO posting their own training that they do
58
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:19.720
that once a month, or their mission that they're doing. Yes,
59
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.560
that's and and that's the world we live in now.
60
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:29.000
Back when I got in and there was either I
61
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:30.800
tell people all the time, it was either the day
62
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:36.160
before or or the day after Moses across the Red Sea.
63
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:42.800
We couldn't we didn't have the platform now, and so
64
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:48.879
so our our mission focus was to to get out
65
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:50.439
