West Virginia National Guard conducts flood recovery and supports injured personnel

The West Virginia National Guard is actively engaged in domestic humanitarian operations, including coordinated response and recovery efforts following severe flooding across the state. These missions involve balancing federal requirements with local infrastructure support, which impacts logistical readiness and state equipment budgets.

Separately, Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe of the West Virginia Air National Guard is undergoing physical recovery after being injured in the line of duty while patrolling Washington, D.C. last fall. Wolfe is scheduled for a cranioplasty involving a 3D-printed replacement for a portion of his skull. His family reports that while he faces challenges relearning certain skills, his physical progress is steady.
