The Georgia State Defense Force recently had one of their latest Initial Entry Training (Basic Training) classes graduate. The Georgia State Defense Force along with every other State Defense Force requires troops with no prior service experience in the United States Military to undergo a Basic Training course to ensure those troops are introduced and accustomed to military procedure, law, & customs. These troops will now return to their home units and begin their service in the Georgia State Defense Force.
