Ohio Military Reserve
Among other responsibilities, the Ohio State Guard staffed a mobile gas warfare demonstration school which instructed more than 25,000 civil defense workers in addition to its own units.The Ohio Defense Corps was established in May 1949; a minimum cadre for five regiments was recruited within a month.The stated purpose of the unit is to be available for the governor to assist eligible municipalities with cybersecurity vulnerabilities and provide recommendations to reduce cyber threats.[10] In Columbus, the National Guard and Military Reserve packed boxes and served meals to men staying at the Downtown YMCA, including those who have been relocated from homeless shelters.Although they are covered by the State's insurance and workers’ compensation program, soldiers are not paid for their training time or AT period.[8] In addition, the OHMR Academy offers a series of Army Institute for Professional Development (AIPD) correspondence courses.[15] Members of the OHMR, being a part of the Ohio Organized Militia[16] are treated as law enforcement officers and are immune from arrest during state active duty deployment except in case of treason or felony[17] when aiding the civil authorities after being called upon by the Governor with executing the laws of the state, suppressing insurrection, repelling invasion, or promoting the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of this state.
