Washington went into overdrive mode prior to the US Inauguration. Included is the deployment of a large number of National Guardsmen, who have already begun to arrive in the city. Many are being called up for duty from surrounding states. Speaking to the press, Gen. Daniel R. Hokanson, chief of the National Guard Bureau, said that 6,200 Guardsmen were currently deployed in the capital. More were coming in to protect Inauguration Day on Saturday, with an expected figure of 10,000 Guardsmen to be deployed. However, he added that: “We have received support requests from the Secret Service, Capitol Police and Park Police, and have been authorized to provide up to 15,000 Guard members to meet current and future support needs.”
