Gov. Scott Walker today issued an executive order allowing members of the Wisconsin National Guard to carry weapons while on duty in the wake of a shooting at a military recruiting office in Chattanooga last week.
Walker said he was also directing Adjutant Gen. Donald Dunbar to evaluate long-term plans to ensure safety of guard members.
“Allowing our National Guard members to carry weapons while on duty gives them the tools they need to serve and protect our citizens, as well as themselves,” Walker said.
