A more likely scenario is National Guard or Reservist. And there is a very large training gap separating those two groups.

This was true a decade ago, but damn near every Guard and Reservist has at least 1 tour to Iraq or Afghanistan now, more than likely 3-4 if they've been in since before 9/11. I know a few Guards in the Bossier/Shreveport area with 2 tours to Iraq and 3 to Afghanistan. The training prior to those tours has gotten more intensive over the years.
