Introduction

What was the National Guard's role in public health control of the COVID-19 Pandemic?
​
This is a study into why the United States had to call in the military and what the military role was in helping to combat COVID-19. This study will outline a short literature review on the history of the US healthcare system as well as previous military involvement into pandemics. Following the literature review, an ethnographic study into the Ohio and Nebraska National Guard testing missions will be discussed.
