Virginia National Guard Soldiers assigned to the Staunton-based Headquarters Company, 116th Infantry Brigade Combat Team depart their readiness center in Staunton, Va., to link up with Virginia State Police, Jan. 23, 2016. Guard personnel across the state are assisting VSP troopers and local emergency organizations get through heavy snow to respond to vehicle crashes, evacuate citizens in need of medical assistance and have also helped get needed equipment to a house fire. The Guard has approximately 400 personnel staged and ready along the I-81 corridor between Lexington and Winchester, along the Route 29 corridor from Warrenton to Danville, as well as in the areas near Northern Virginia, Richmond, Fredericksburg and Gate City.
