BISMARCK, N.D. (KFGO) – A North Dakota Army National Guard unit has received an alert for possible mobilization.
If ordered to mobilize, the Bismarck-based Detachment 7, Company C, 2nd Battalion, 245th Aviation Regiment would deploy to the U.S. Central Command area of operations sometime in late summer 2023.
If ordered to mobilize, about six Soldiers are expected to be deployed in about one year. The unit operates a C-12 Huron aircraft which provides transportation of personnel and light cargo. This would be the unit’s second mobilization. Detachment 7 served in the Horn of Africa area from August 2018 to June 2019.
