In this Commanders Briefing podcast clip, we discuss the trend of State Defense Forces, including The New York Guard, beginning to compensate their troops for both training and active duty missions. During the conversation, we ask Brigadier General Dennis Watts, Commanding General of The Georgia State Defense Force (GSDF), if there are any plans to implement similar pay for GSDF troops. General Watts shares his perspective on the potential for this development within the GSDF, offering insights into the factors that influence such decisions.
We want to thank our Patrons for making this interview possible and a special thank you to Captain Beverly Shepard (GSDF PAO) and Brigadier General Dennis Watts for doing the interview.
