Oshkosh, WI – A significant contingent of Wisconsin’s finest is preparing to answer the call to duty, as more than 600 National Guard soldiers are set to deploy. The soldiers, hailing from the esteemed 2nd Battalion, 127th Infantry Regiment, and Gulf Company, 132nd Brigade Support Battalion, will be honored in a private sendoff ceremony this Saturday in Oshkosh before embarking on their critical mission.
This mobilization marks a transition to active duty for these dedicated men and women. Following the poignant farewells, the troops will depart for intensive pre-mobilization training. This crucial phase will further hone their skills and ensure they are fully prepared for the complexities of their upcoming assignment.
Their ultimate destination is the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) area of operations – a region pivotal to global stability. Once deployed, these Wisconsin soldiers will play a vital role, working shoulder-to-shoulder with NATO partners. Their collective mission is clear: to promote and enhance regional security and foster stability in a dynamic and often challenging part of the world.

This operation highlights not only the readiness of Wisconsin’s citizen-soldiers but also their commitment to international partnerships and global peacekeeping efforts.
While the sendoff ceremony in Oshkosh will be a private moment for families and loved ones, the pride and support of the entire Badger State will undoubtedly accompany these soldiers. Their service is a testament to their dedication, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of the National Guard in safeguarding interests both at home and abroad.
