In today’s Scuttlebutt Podcast clip, we highlight the U.S. Army Auxiliary Activation Project and its vision for strengthening America’s defense framework. Jim Stephens, the project’s Administrator, explains its purpose, core missions, and the reasons behind its creation. He discusses how the Auxiliary can provide vital support to states already operating both a National Guard and State Defense Force, while also serving as a force multiplier for states lacking a State Defense Force. The conversation underscores the project’s role in filling critical gaps, enhancing readiness, and ensuring communities nationwide have access to trained and organized military support when needed.
