During the two-week assignment, troopers will not make arrests, according to a release from the governor’s office.
DeWine last week sent members of the Ohio National Guard to support the Southwest border mission.
The 185 service members will be deployed late this year to provide non-law enforcement support to the U.S. Custom and Border Protection, at the request of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the National Guard Bureau, the governor said.
Approximately 115 members of the Ohio National Guard’s 1484th Transportation Company previously were deployed to support the Southwest border operations at the request of DHS and NGB. These soldiers remain on active duty.
